Barcelona are ready to appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) to provisionally register Arda Turan with the Spanish Federation (RFEF) if FIFA once again deny the club authorisation to do so later this week.

Turan signed with the club this summer, but has been unable to play as Barcelona continue to serve a FIFA-imposed transfer ban after being found guilty of multiple breaches of the regulations regarding the signing of foreign youngsters.

Barcelona will first present another appeal to FIFA's Appeals Committee seeking confirmation that the club has completed the two-window ban, after an initial appeal in September was rejected.
