Diario Sport claim that "Real Madrid's directors are convinced" that their Bundesliga rivals are the ones who convinced Fifa to open up an investigation into Real and Atletico Madrid's signing of young players.
The two investigations, as well as the one into Barcelona last year, came from anonymous tip-offs, the Spanish paper reports.
Los Blancos will not ne able to sign any players in the summer or next January if the ban is upheld, although the Spanish giants will appeal.
Manager Zinedine Zidane has already stated that the ban is "absurd" with two of the four players whose transfers were investigated are his sons.
Zidane said he didn't know how they were involved as he's "spent all my life in Madrid with my family, with my sons."
