FIFA order Barcelona to deregister South Korean superkid Seung Woo Lee

South Korean superkid Seung Woo Lee is being blocked from continuing his career with Barcelona.

The teenager is playing for Barca's cadet B team and has club coaching staff excited about his progress.

However, FIFA have ordered Barca to deregister 14 year-old Lee as he moved to Europe before turning 18, which breaks existing transfer laws.

Lee has been making great progress at Barca for over a year, but FIFA have acted after an anonymous complaint, says Sport.

Barca are now appealing the decision.
