SD Eibar will appeal to FIFA over the transfer denial of Rafa Páez. Eibar submitted all the paperwork for the transfer of Rafa Páez from Liverpool on January 30, within the deadline set by FIFA.

What happened?

The International Football Federation informed Eibar on February 2 that an administrative error had occurred in the processing of the transfer, which was immediately corrected.

Why is it important for Eibar?

Days later, FIFA informed Eibar that the transfer was denied. As of yesterday, February 16, Eibar presented an appeal to the FIFA sole judge to request the transfer, including documents signed by Rafa Páez and the Spanish Football Federation that support the club's position.

What's next?

Rafa Páez continues to train normally with the rest of the squad and is waiting for the issue to be resolved so that he can be available to the coach. | Date | Event | Result | | January 30 | Submission of paperwork | Within the established deadline | | February 2 | Communication of administrative error | Error corrected immediately | | February 16 | Presentation of appeal | Pending resolution
