JDT Takes Internal Action Over FIFA Clearing House Levy Oversight
Southern Tigers CEO Luis Garcia confirms strict internal measures after administrative correspondence regarding a FIFA levy was overlooked.
Johor Darul Ta’zim has publicly acknowledged and accepted a levy imposed under FIFA Clearing House Regulations after an administrative oversight initially escaped the club's top management.
In an official statement addressing the matter, JDT Chief Executive Officer Luis Garcia revealed that the club immediately launched an internal investigation upon discovering the issue.
The probe uncovered that staff members had inadvertently overlooked official correspondence from FIFA regarding payment instructions. Following the investigation, JDT confirmed that the individuals responsible have been identified and that appropriate internal actions have been taken.
While noting that the 2.5% levy amounts to a relatively minor financial figure, Garcia emphasized that the Southern Tigers treat all administrative and regulatory matters with the utmost seriousness, maintaining that no operational detail should ever slip through the cracks.
The club has assured stakeholders that stringent measures are now in place to ensure a similar oversight will never happen again.
