DCL can join Chelsea tomorrow?

He can certainly sign for them tomorrow if things are agreed , no problem there
They can start paying his wages immediately as well



He cannot play for them until the registration window opens and he is registered

 

[TheBigIguana]

Legally and contractually they are bound by the same laws as any other employees. Maybe you mean that there would be crippling repurcussions for the player but it is legal for a player to quit like any other employee.

Yeah so it isn't the same

Yes so it isn't the same

Legally it has to be the same. Football clubs are bound by the same law as any other employee.

 

[TheBigIguana]

D

Did you even read the OP ?

Yes. When he says fringe first teamers are those not guys who are likely to be reserves for an extended bit?

In practice it is not the same

He’s getting paid as an employee of Chelsea
He can train with them just can’t play
People in normal jobs often have long contracts that cannot be broken except in exceptional circumstances

By proving what they can do in the reserves they are hoping to get picked for the first team
More chance of making an impression in a competitive fixture than in training

Non-competes do happen, but there is nothing but professional sports where the rules are set like this.

This could probably go on for ever but it is identical. Maybe it is different to a warehouse worker but a CEO can resign but would be placed on gardening leave prior to joining a new position. All employment law is governed the same.

Sure but that doesn't mean MO Besic isn't playing 35 reserve games

My guess is the practice of transfer fees and the like would have a tough time standing if someone decided to go all Bosman and take it to court.

I agree, it's a terrible idea.

Remember being in the enclosure for a reserve game when the big team hammered someone 5_0.
We started singing 'Everton Everton Everton ',
While being chased from the main stand seats by some arl arse

I don’t know why you bother @Brisan123 ?
