Anderson Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Aye it's going to be a ballache no doubt. If the transfer was finalised, then it should be paid. One would assume each team has insurance of some form... Read Cardiff were insured to the tune of the proposed fee, although still liable for the 3 year contract costs. No idea how that works.

James Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Surely if the deal is signed, sealed and delivered they pay then their own insurance covers the financial losses. My understanding from the BBC article is that Cardiff had not received all of the paperwork confirming he’s 100% their player. I’d imagine insurance want that proof.

Dokko Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Cardiff holding on to the first payment until they clarify the facts...sorry like Cardiff, tough shit, pay up. Insurance or not you still owe them. Awful club, hope they go down and stay down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Could be that Nantes committed to use the money for something else, obviously not knowing the terrible tragedy that was going to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1892er Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I think Nantes have been more than fair. They sent the letter a week ago asking for the first payment as agreed and have been patient. It's obviously a tradgedy but they are owed £15m. Establishing any facts isn't gonna change the fact Cardiff owe them money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It definitely will be the insurance throwing the spanner in the works. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackandWhite Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Ah yes insurance companies causing chaos and being pricks. That would make sense and is highly probable. The one type of company that won’t provide you the service you pay them thousands for every year and get away with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odear Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 So would a player be covered in insurance for their transfer value? Or is it like a life insurance policy where you specify the amount and make the according payments? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it like a life insurance policy where you specify the amount and make the according payments? Up to the club. I guess Cardiff went with the fee as its all he's ever really going to be worth at his age, but if they wanted they could insure him for whatever they think he's worth, then pay the additional premium for it. For example I doubt Messi is insured for zero value. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, which pisses me off over the whole thing as if it had been you and me for example then apart from the families etc then no one would bat an eyelid over the search after a few days/week.

Which would make more sense for it to be finished up, when the Argentinian was found? It's cold as fuck, but as you said, the world we live in.

The effort was to locate the plane, which is feasible with radar. Luckily Sala's body was in the plane and so retrievable, but if the pilot's wasn't there's next to no hope of finding it under that depth of sea unless it washes up. It would be exactly the same outcome if the pilot's body was there and Sala's wasn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
