As harsh as it sounds, if you put your business hat on and the paperwork wasn’t correct and the insurance is void then am afraid you don’t pay the money. It might well sound wrong and without doubt it’s a sensitive subject but that is what most would do.

Once the full facts are finalised a decision will be made, until then am fully behind city doing what’s right for our club. Personally I don’t think we will end up paying anything other than maybe a good will gesture payment.

Whatever the reason why this transfer was not completed, and I still believe it surrounds the ITC not being issued, before the tragic death of Emiliano Sala it is going to become increasingly difficult for the club to maintain this "Not Contractually Obliged" to make payment for the player because you only have to ask one question. Why was Emiliano Sala on that plane?

The answer is simple it was because Cardiff City and Nantes FC had agreed a fee for the transfer of the player and the player himself had agreed terms with Cardiff City. Therein lies the "Moral Obligation" and I believe eventually both clubs will come to an agreement about who pays what and if they cannot reach agreement then either FIFA or the CAS will make the decision.

Having said that I still believe that Cardiff City are not the bad guys in all this because it is clear that the club had attempted to arrange a commercial flight for the player but "He" decided to go with the flight offered by the agent acting on behalf of Nantes FC.We now know that whilst the plane used was capable of making the flight the pilot was not trained to make the flight and did not have the licence required either. Is that Cardiff City fault?

This is why Cardiff City are absolutely right to say let's wait until we get the FULL report into this accident before making any decision on making any payments.


:bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf:


TBH we all know why ES was on the plane but I don't think that is materially important. This comes down to contract law which has six basic elements which form a legally binding contract.

(1) offer (2) acceptance (3) consideration (4) mutuality of obligation (5) competency and capacity and in certain circumstances (6) a written instrument.

Almost certainly (1), (2) and (5) were in place.

It is consideration, mutuality of obligation and possibly a written instrument which is where the contract may not be legally binding.

Consideration is something of value and is exchanged for the performance or a promise of performance by the other party. In this case it was ES (a player) exchanged for £15m so the something of value (ES) must be delivered in tact and able to perform as was promised under the terms of the contract. Unfortunately he wasn't because he died in transit.

Mutuality of Obligation means both parties are bound to perform their obligations or the law will treat the agreement as if neither party is bound to perform. This is similar to consideration and means unless Nantes transferred ES to CCFC in tact and he was able to perform as under the terms of the contract then CCFC is not bound to pay Nantes £15m.

The written instrument in this case revolves around whether the contract was completed. To complete the contract we needed to register the player. It is technical but we all know if we buy a house, car or land we need to transfer the registration before we become the legal owners.

Until a contract is finalised both parties have the right to withdraw. In theory even though ES was flying to Cardiff the club could have still pulled out of the deal because the paperwork sent to the PL was not properly completed and therefore no contract existed. Almost certainly this will affect whether our insurers will pay out and TBH they seem to have good reason not to as technically their was no legally binding contract between CCFC and Nantes at the time of ES death.


Good read that Tony and is a super explanation of why Cardiff City shouldn't pay a penny to Nantes because I believe that an ITC had not been issued and receipt confirmed by the FA, until that had happened the transfer could not be completed. Cardiff City mat have announced the signing of ES but the official statement did carry the caveat "Subject To International Clearance"

I have been lucky enough to see transfer documentation and where it involves a player moving between different National Associations the contract ALWAYS contains a clause "Subject to receipt of an International Transfer Certificate". In fact, unless we sign a player attached to a Welsh club (Except Swansea & Newport) ALL transfers our club is involved with require an ITC.

My gut instinct here is that our club may very well agree some sort of payment here, but not the full £15m, and I think they may very well offer such payment to the estate of ES and not Nantes FC.


:bluescarf: :bluescarf:


Thanks Castle it would be a comprise I could live with and I would certainly prefer to see any payment go to EA's family rather than to those greedy parasites like Willie McKay.

Couple of points here Tony

You Say "the club could have still pulled out of the deal because the paperwork sent to the PL was not properly completed and therefore no contract existed."

Is it not the case the contract between the clubs was completed and signed?

Is it not the case he was registered as a Cardiff player with the FAW which means he was now owned by Cardiff City ?

Is it not the case the registration with the premier league is to allow the player to play in the premier league?

You say " Almost certainly this will affect whether our insurers will pay out"

Is it also not the case that your insurers will not pay out as there was inadequate cover on your new asset which wouldn't cover the loss fully ?


Daya sorry mate but your points raised show your ignorance of contract law. As explained above there are several aspects to a contract before it becomes legally binding. The signature alone is not enough. The consideration (which in this case was ES) has to arrive in good order and be available to the buyer CCFC as sold from day one of the contract which was when the player was fully registered with the PL. Until then he remind a Nantes player as they held his registration.

It also appears Nantes have made mistakes with their paperwork.

Therefore there was no legally binding contract between CCFC and Nantes at the time of his death. Up until a contract becomes binding either side has an option to withdraw from the deal.

The ITC with the FAW was only one part of his registration and on it's own it does-not constitute a full registration. The club needs an ITC before it can move onto registration with the PL. Until all aspects of a contract are in place then it is not legally binding and simply pointing to one aspect and claiming that is evidence that a contract did exist is flawed logic and would not be recognised in law. Hence our insurance would be invalid as it would only cover players registered with CCFC.
