Real Madrid have had their ban on signing players reduced to one transfer window following an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas).
In a statement on their official website, Real said: The decision highlights the injustice of the original ban imposed by FIFA, although the club regrets that the CAS lacked the courage to revoke the ruling entirely.”
The Spanish side had originally been barred from signing players for two windows by world governing body FIFA.
They remain banned from registering new players this January but will now be able to make signings next summer.
