The press service of Bilbao's "Athletic" club has confirmed that the club was unable to register Aymeric Laporte.
Earlier, it was reported that the Spanish club had transferred the defender from "Al-Nassr", but the Saudi team did not send information about the transaction to the relevant authorities in time.
Today, "Athletic" confirmed that FIFA did not allow the club to register the player, despite the Spanish Royal Football Federation's request for an exception.
"Athletic" has stated that it will continue to look for alternative options to register the player.
Let us remind you that "Athletic" is Qarabağ's opponent in the group stage of the Champions League. The match between the clubs will take place on October 22 in Naples.
