FEEDER CLUB TO BE BANNED?

The Screws:

Liverpool and Leeds face the threat of a transfer ban for using an unlicensed agent in Harry Kewell's move.

FIFA plan to charge both clubs after a full-scale probe into the £5million switch.

And if found guilty they could be banned from any dealing in the next transfer window as well as being hit with hefty fines. Max Sport, a company run by Kewell's manager Bernie Mandic, received £2m from the transfer.

The issue was brought to light during Kewell's libel action against Gary Lineker. The FA had their own inquiry and handed the findings to FIFA.
