UEFA said in a statement on Friday that Ligue 1 side Monaco and Serie A clubs Inter Milan and AS Roma "have all agreed to pay fines and reduce the size of their squads in European competition" after breaking Financial Fair Play rules, according to Brian Homewood of REUTERS. UEFA added that the trio "also agreed to limit the number of new players they could register in European competition." They were among 10 clubs, also including Portuguese club Sporting Lisbon, that "came to settlements with UEFA after falling foul of the rules designed to stop clubs overspending." Inter would pay a total amount up to €20M ($22.46M), Monaco up to €13M ($14.56M) and Roma up to €6M ($6.72M), "the exact amounts depending on a number of conditions." UEFA said that Inter "would be allowed only 21 players, instead of 25, in their squad if they qualify for European competition next season," rising to 22 in the '16-17 season. Roma and Monaco would be allowed 22 players in their squads next season. Sporting, Besiktas, FC Krasnodar and fellow Russian side Lokomotiv Moscow "also came to similar settlements with UEFA" (REUTERS, 5/8).
