Persib Bandung hit with fifa registration ban over Daisuke Sato dispute

May 30, 2026

Persib Bandung has been placed on the FIFA registration ban list since May 29, 2026. The sanction stems from a 2023 contract dispute with former player Daisuke Sato.

Persib management stressed that the sanction is unrelated to unpaid wages or player rights violations. Deputy CEO Adhitia Putra Herawan stated the issue originated from the termination of Daisuke Sato's contract.

Adhitia explained the club is completing the required administrative obligations. Persib plans to apply for the ban to be lifted once obligations are fulfilled.

The ban applies to Persib's senior and youth teams. The club continues preparations for the new season despite the sanction.

Blaming daisuke is ridiculous. but if anything, this case shows that football contracts are far more complicated than people think

from the outside, it looked like Persib no longer wanted him in the squad and needed to free up a foreign-player slot. he was being let go and… https://t.co/90jeWocXUQ

Jadi, bukan tidak mampu bayar gaji atau dan lain sebagainya. Melainkan perkara pemutusan Daisuke Sato yang berdasarkan pengadilan arbitrase olahraga internasional, memutuskan Persib bersalah dan diharuskan membayar denda dan bunga pertahunnya kepada Daisuke.

Daisuke Sato mengeluarkan pernyataan resminya terkait situasi yang terjadi.

Intinya, tidak ada masalah dengan bobotoh dan orang-orang di Persib. FIFA Ban yang jatuh pun bukan atas permintaannya, tetapi konsekuensi dari situasi yang terjadi.#BandungFootball #BFCOM #Persib… pic.twitter.com/VfW5J2zjJU
