Christian Keidel and Andreas Zagklis (Martens Lawyers) represent Fenerbahçe S.K. in UEFA disciplinary proceedings and before CAS On 25 June 2013, the UEFA Control- and Disciplinary Body decided to exclude Fenerbahçe from the next three UEFA competitions for which it would qualify (the ban for the third season was suspended for a probationary period of five years). Following an appeal by Fenerbahçe against this decision, the UEFA Appeals Body partially lifted the ban and decided to exclude the Club from the next two UEFA competitions for which it would qualify. Fenerbahçe appealed against this decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). On 18 July 2013, CAS confirmed that UEFA had agreed with the requested stay of the challenged decision until CAS renders a final award. Therefore, Fenerbahçe is provisionally allowed to participate in the UEFA Champions League 2013/14. CAS will render its final decision on 28 August 2013.
