FIFA order Barcelona to terminate two more junior player contracts

Barcelona's La Masia academy is again in trouble with FIFA over junior recruitment.

Marca says Barca has been ordered to terminate the contracts of two young players in the U14 A-team squad.

Dutchman Fode Fofana and Venezuelan Matías Lacava both featured in the youth team last season without any hitches, but the club has decided to sever the ties with the youngsters after being affected by the new rulings over foreign players.

Cameroonian Patrice Soussia, U18 B team, and American Ben Lederman, U15 A team, are also unable to compete in Barcelona's youth teams, having been sanctioned by FIFA.
