In an unexpected move, FIFA included Atlas and Pumas in its "blacklist" of clubs prohibited from signing players as of May 28.

The measure also affects Atlético Morelia and Cancún FC of the Expansion League, according to the publication on the official portal of the organization.

FIFA published that both clubs will not be able to register new players until further notice, without specifying a date to lift the sanction or the exact causes of the punishment. This type of restriction is usually linked to financial non-compliance.

When there are debts for transfers or salaries and there is a resolution in this regard, FIFA can prohibit clubs from making transfers.

In this case, it is not yet clear if Pumas and Atlas are facing this situation, although it is the most frequent reason behind this type of sanctions.

Both teams issued a statement about their situations.

The red and blacks had just announced the definitive purchase of Adrián Mora, and they would have already had everything tied up for the transfer of Gustavo Ferrareis.
