Eg. Gaël Kakuta

http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaël_Kakuta

On 3 September 2009, it was announced by the FIFA Dispute Resolution Chamber,[7] that Kakuta would be banned for four months and be fined €780,000 due to a breach of contract with his old club Lens in order to sign for Chelsea in the summer of 2007. Chelsea were also banned from signing any players in the next two transfer windows due to their involvement in inducing the player to break his contract at Lens, meaning they would have been unable to buy or sell players until January 2011. Further to this they received a €130,000 fine, payable to RC Lens.

EVERTON get mentioned for poaching one of Crewe's 12 year olds who was their most promising in 2009 according to Dario Gradi there. Whoever that is is now 17. I wonder who and if we will get them into the first team.


Now clubs pay fixed amount "training compensation" for youth players.

Before Chelsea were like a bunch of outlaws in the wild west. When it came to poaching youth players.[/QUOTE]


You forget to say that the Kakuta fine/ ban was overturned. As it was proven that Lens didn't have a contract with the player at all. Yet another cock up from FIFA

What is interesting is that in the last 10 years Chelsea have either released or given free transfers to 61 players, Everton 45 but the winners are Arsenal on 75. 25 last season alone.

I didn't forget. I chose not to mention that.

Lens did have a contract. It was not in the proper form and thus overturned in the courts. Not UEFA's fault. Only the courts could decide if a player-club contract was legal. As its a private law agreement.

However the principle is clear.

Chelsea have "stockpiled" by sucking up youth players from across Europe. At a higher rate than virtually anyone.

Oh and you know nothing about FFP.
 

I read that Damon post bottom up. Yet I knew it was his well before reaching the alias user title.

A very distinct habit of mastubatory financial jargon makes the whole multi thing a bit flimsy, don't you think Damo?

It was nothing to do with UEFA it was FIFA. There was no valid contract in place and even to a first year law student that would have been obvious. French law is quite clear in such matters and FIFA in their haste forget to work out how old Kakuta was when Lens claimed that the contract was signed.

As for FFP. Is it that having read a couple of blogs you believe you are in the know? Every blog that has tried to predict FFP has been way off.
As I said in an earlier post a lot more will become clear when the 2013/ 14 financials are released in or around December but don't forget all transfer dealings in the latest window, and that includes the Lukaka transfer will not be reflected in the 13/14 figures.
