According to Diakov, speculation regarding a massive player registration ban for Russian clubs does not correspond to the reality of the regulatory framework put in place by FIFA. He recalls that, contrary to what many imagine, it is not obligatory for RPL clubs to open accounts in Europe in the compliance procedure established by the FIFA clearing center.

“The FIFA Clearing Center regulations provide for a compliance procedure during which clubs must provide information, including on their existing bank accounts, but this in no way implies the compulsory opening of accounts in Europe,” he clarified. This clarification underlines the absence of direct additional financial constraints in the management of international transfers.

Furthermore, Diakov wanted to dispel the fear of a generalized sanction affecting all Russian clubs collectively. “There is no collective ban. The regulations do not provide for shared responsibility: the problems of one club do not extend to others,” he insisted. This statement highlights that each case is treated individually, meaning that clubs that comply with the rules will not be penalized due to isolated cases.

These explanations therefore calm people's minds in the face of rumors which had gained momentum on social networks and in certain media. The RPL can thus continue its activities normally, without fear of being hit by a general freeze of its transfer operations.

In the current context where Russian football is still under surveillance due to various incidents and international restrictions, this official statement from the Russian Federation is important. It also helps avoid negative consequences on the transfer market and the competitiveness of Russian clubs.

In conclusion, no systemic measures or collective transfer bans are currently envisaged for the Russian Premier League. Clubs must nevertheless continue to follow FIFA procedures in their operations, without exposing themselves to global sanctions. This clarification brings a breath of calm in a tense climate around football in Russia.
