Spanish-born Fernandez suspended from all soccer activity with immediate effect
PARIS - Israel national coach Luis Fernandez was suspended from all football activity with immediate effect by world governing body FIFA on Thursday, a FIFA source told AFP.
The 51-year-old Spanish-born former French international had been suspended, FIFA said, because of an outstanding judgement made against him in 2009 relating to the Qatari team, Al-Rayyan, he coached in 2005.
