(Reuters) - Cardiff City will appeal against FIFA's ruling that they must pay the first instalment of 6 million euros ($6.54 million) to Nantes for the transfer of Emiliano Sala, the Welsh club said on Wednesday.

After signing for Cardiff in January, Sala was travelling there from the French club when his plane crashed in the English Channel.
