Arsenal have been fined 10,000 pounds and handed a suspended transfer ban for dealing with an unlicensed agent, the Football Association (FA) says.

The FA said on Monday the ban, for using an agent without a FIFA licence in negotiating the contract of Dutch teenage striker Quincy Owusu-Abeyie, has been suspended for a period of two years starting on February 1.

If Arsenal are again found in breach of FIFA regulations governing the use of players' agents in the next two years the ban on all transfers will be activated for the duration of the next transfer window, it said on the official FA website.
