Manchester United has been cleared of wrongdoing in the transfer of midfielder Paul Pogba from Juventus last summer for a world record $120 million, but FIFA has opened disciplinary proceedings against the Italian champions.
FIFA had asked both clubs last month for 'clarification on the deal' amid reports in the book 'Football Leaks: The Dirty Business of Football' that the midfielder's agent, Mino Raiola, had earned $41 million from the transfer.

Third party ownership
FIFA's interest in the transfer is believed to relate to whether there has been a breach of third party ownership rules.
Third party ownership, where a company, a hedge-fund, an agent or a single investor takes ownership of all or part of the financial rights to a player -- thus benefiting from transfer fees whenever a player is sold -- is forbidden in England.
In 2015, FIFA banned third party ownership but said 'existing agreements can remain in place until their ordinary contractual expiry.'
During his time as general secretary, FIFA president Gianni Infantino had called third party ownership 'a kind of modern slavery.'
