Rewa midfielder Gabrieli Matanisiga has been suspended for six matches and slapped with a $5,000 fine for breaching transfer legislation.

Matanisiga also needs to repay the $3,000 he received from Suva Football Association.

The Fiji Football Association Players' Status Committee has concluded the dispute case of five players while one remains pending.

Labasa defender Antonio Tuivuna has not been released to join Lautoka as his contract is still valid.

Avinesh Suwamy has been cleared to return to Ba while Sairusi Nalaubu’s case has been deferred because of further legal arguments before a decision could be made.

Meanwhile Zainal Ali has been cleared to join Navua while Tevita Koroi has joined Ba.
