On October 4, the Court of Justice of the EU ruled on the player’s complaint Diarrhea woman and after the French player decided to break his contract in 2014 without just cause in Lokomotiv Moscow. In it, the European Union forced to change its regulations because it was contrary to the free movement of players.
There are several conclusions reached by the European court. First, the destination club does not have to pay any compensation for a player who violates this contract without reasonable cause, in addition to the fact that he cannot be sanctioned with two benefits without signing. In this case it is the Charleroi Belgian. But it also obliges the club of origin to issue the transfer certificate so that the footballer can play for his new team.
It was when the FIFA announced the opening of a global dialogue on the transfer system, inviting key stakeholders to participate in order to adapt article 17 of the FIFA Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players. Which is the article affected by this judicial resolution.
Well, in MD we had access to the circular that was sent yesterday FIFA in all federations. In it it announces that it has suspended all similar disputes pending the decision of European Union and is currently on trial. Both are relevant to players, coaches and clubs.
This decision puts on the table the question of what will happen now while this article is not implemented. Especially when we are just over a month away from the opening of the market. That is, in January can any player break his contract with a club without just cause? And can a club do the same? Until now, if the club broke it, it had to pay the player and be able to move up two windows without signing. If you are the footballer, in addition to the corresponding compensation, you may not play for up to six months. In this case, it is also said that the destination club will take this payment.
In other words, for now and until this situation is resolved, a player can leave and FIFA cannot penalize the player or the destination club.
