One of the most anticipated news stories in Uzbek football has come true: FIFA has officially lifted the transfer ban on Navbahor. The announcement from the Uzbekistan Professional Football League’s press service immediately captured the attention of fans and analysts alike.
The ban was imposed after Giorgi Nikabadze did not receive his salary on time. The club’s management fulfilled all financial obligations and settled the outstanding debts. As a result, FIFA was forced to review and lift the sanctions.
For Navbahor, this update means the club can now register new players during the summer transfer window. Supporters are now excitedly awaiting potential transfers and squad reinforcements.
It is important to note that all financial issues had to be resolved in three stages. According to the agreement with players and coaches, all debts had to be cleared by July 1. This was confirmed in an official letter of guarantee from the regional governor.
In addition, Navbahor is working to resolve obligations to former coaches and local players who filed direct appeals to the League. These matters are being settled under strict oversight from the League and Football Association.
Currently, the club is focused on meeting its obligations to Uzbek players. This step is vital for Namangan’s professional football development and the club’s financial discipline.
Another crucial factor: the summer transfer window in Uzbekistan closes on July 30. The club’s timely resolution of these issues has opened the door for new signings.
Navbahor’s achievement is not only a victory for the club but also a positive signal for the future of Namangan football. Fans are now waiting for new transfers and continued team success.
