MILAN (Reuters) - AC Milan have voluntarily accepted a one-year ban from all European competitions for breaching UEFA's Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules, sport's highest court CAS said on Friday.

As a result, the seven-times European champions will not participate in the 2019-20 Europa League which they qualified for by finishing fifth in Serie A last season.
