Much as I enjoy a trip down memory lane, what next? Debating the relative merits of rival town criers?…
I think you meant 'unenforceable' rather than 'illegal'. Grealish had a £100m buyout clause in his contract but Villa initially refused to honour it. His agency - Stellar - negotiated with them and eventually they did honour it of course but it's questionable whether Grealish would've had a cast-iron case if he'd taken them to court had they not done."One major issue with the buy-out clause is the belief that this type of clause would be unenforceable in the English courts. In English law, though the courts have allowed parties to pre-agree damages for a breach of contract, they have taken it upon themselves to limit the use of penalty clauses. The English courts have generally held that a clause imposing the obligation on the defaulting party to pay an extravagant sum for the breach of contract is a penalty clause and hence is void and unenforceable."
