FIFA hits another Bulgarian club with transfer ban

Another Bulgarian club has faced sanctions from FIFA. Second-tier side Dobrudzha have been handed a ban on registering new players. The sanction came into force on October 22 and spans three consecutive transfer windows.

The Dobrich outfit currently compete in the Second League, where they languish in second-from-bottom place. The team is enduring a difficult spell following their relegation from the top tier and could lose their professional status by the end of the season.

Dobrudzha join four other Bulgarian clubs currently serving active transfer embargos: top-flight Botev Vratsa, amateur sides Vereya and Krumovgrad, and the now-defunct Lovech.
