"Milan" to face very strict UEFA punishment

Trying to regain past glory, the "Milan" team could soon experience a crushing blow.

"La Gazzetta dello Sport" reports that the "Serie A" team is likely to face a very strict UEFA punishment - a two-year ban from European tournaments and a 30 million euro fine.

Such strict sanctions will be imposed due to the spending spree of "Milan" last summer - when players were bought for a total of 200 million euros and the financial records were not balanced.

This decision is officially scheduled to be announced tomorrow, but representatives of the city of Milan are already preparing to appeal.

In the last Italian championship, "Milan" finished in sixth place and secured a spot in the Europa League tournament.
