ZURICH (Reuters) - Last season's Europa League runners-up Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk were among three teams banned from European competition for one season by UEFA on Thursday for breaching financial regulations.

Azeri club Inter Baku and Romania's Targu Mures were also given one-season suspensions along with the Ukrainian side who were beaten by Sevilla in last season's Europa final.
