Mandic says Kewell deal above board

BERNIE MANDIC is adamant his role in the Harry Kewell transfer saga will stand up to any potential FIFA investigation.

The Football Association yesterday submitted documentation to the world governing body in relation to Kewell's transfer from Leeds to Liverpool last week.

It is understood complaints have been made by licensed agents in Australia as to the role played by Bernie Mandic, long recognised as Kewell's representative, in the £5 million deal as he is not officially regarded by FIFA.
