Seven naturalised players in Malaysia's national football team have obtained a temporary reprieve from the Court of Arbitration for Sport, halting their 12-month suspension from all football-related activities, the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) said on Tuesday, Reuters reported.
FIFA suspended the seven naturalised players for 12 months and fined FAM 350,000 Swiss francs ($439,257) in September last year after finding that doctored documentation had been used to allow the players to participate in an Asian Cup qualifier against Vietnam.
FAM then took the case to CAS after FIFA dismissed its appeal. FIFA said it would launch a formal probeinto the association's internal operations and would notify authorities in five countries of potential criminal proceedings, according to Reuters.
