Fifa temporarily suspended the transfer ban imposed on Angers on Friday after violations of transfer regulations, the Ligue 1 club announced on Monday in a short statement.

According to Angers, the club asked Fifa the reasons for its decision and the international body suspended its decision "until notification" of these reasons.

This unusual provision does not make it possible to know whether Angers will be able to benefit from the summer transfer window, which opens on June 9 in Ligue 1, or at least from a window at the start of the period, if the sanction had to be confirmed by the after.

Fifa announced Friday a ban on transfers during the next transfer window for Angers and Paris FC for suspicion of "transfer-relay", a practice aimed at circumventing certain obligations of buying clubs vis-à-vis sellers, and expressly banned since 2020.

The suspicions relate to a certain Kevin Bemanga

Suspicions relate to the transfer of Kevin Bemanga, a 23-year-old striker who played at the amateur level in France and Spain before signing his first professional contract in July 2020 with Paris FC, then being transferred as soon as possible. August in Angers. Never passed by the first team, he is currently on loan to FC Sion, where he plays with the reserve. "The transfer of Kevin Bemanga in August 2020 was carried out in strict compliance with national and international regulations in force," Angers and Paris FC assured Friday, announcing their intention to study possible remedies.

But several media have noted inconsistencies in the course of the young player, noting that he had been engaged during the period when Angers was negotiating the extension of Angelo Fulgini, one of his best assets, while the two players had the same agent.
