Malaga has announced that it plans to appeal to the Court for the Arbitration of Sport (CAS) in Lausanne over sanctions imposed by Uefa under its financial fair play scheme.
The sanctions do not affect its current Champions League campaign, where it is the Round of 16, but would see it banned for at least one season the next time it qualified. They are currently fourth in La Liga and have a good chance of qualifying next season.

Malaga was also fined €300,000 and received the harshest penalties of nine clubs dealt with by Uefa last month. Five other clubs face similar one-year bans during any of the next three seasons unless they can convince UEFA they have cleared the stipulated debts.
They are Hadjuk Split and Osijek from Croatia, Rapid Bucharest and Dinamo Bucharest from Romania, and Partizan Belgrade from Serbia.
Malaga argues that it has repayment plans in place to deal with money owed to the Spanish tax authorities, a rival club and players.
