Ederson and Jesus cleared to play (Pg 63)

Is it right that Ederson can be banned by FIFA for playing for City in the Premier league by not playing/travelling to play for Brazil? Seems really crazy. Is there previous form for this anywhere?

If a club refuses to release players for international, Fifa can evoke a rule that they are banned from the next game the club plays, City knew any players travelling to Brazil would have to isolate for 10 days on return so have taken the lesser option.

Top teams get totally f**ked by this amount of internationals, 3 in 8 days is madness, as well as players been knackered and possibly having knocks, Fifa have totally ignored a global pandemic and the implications and been twats.

The sheer ridiculousness of that.

I wonder what would have actually happened if we allowed Eddie & Jesus to go over.
Would they have been taken off also?
Madness!

Can football players ignore a summons for the national team?

Rinsey Kong's answer: Yes. But they can be punished by Fifa. If the player plainly refuse or don't come without his federation approval, explicit or not, the federation can ask Fifa to fine the player and worst, suspend him. Example, Matip refused to play for Cameroon against the federation wil...

That is a load of rubbish, if they put in writing they don't want to be selected it is game over.
