Then he´ll rot for the remainder of his contract. FIFA/UEFA need bringing into this at somestage to ensure he neither gets paid whilst we still retain his registrationpetrusha said:Quite some time ago now, I was a lawyer with a firm in London that acted for a leading football club. A star player of the club had become the subject of quite a protracted transfer saga, and was actively trying to get away. His head was being turned by the interest, not very subtly expressed, that a very big European club had in his services.
The club we acted for didn't originally want to sell, but eventually came to accept this outcome as an inevitability. However, they decided that they'd try to sell to anyone other than the club that had been openly courting the player. Unfortunately, the player rejected two other potential suitors, preferring the option that his current club were desperate to avoid. Senior executives at the club we acted for were implacably convinced that the player’s advisers had been offered a large sum of money by the long-standing suitor if to ensure the ‘right’ outcome.
I claim no inside knowledge, but looking at the Tevez saga from the outside, I wouldn’t rule out Joorabchian having a similar arrangement with Milan. It may not be cash – perhaps they may have promised him a role in future transfers for the club if he delivers the goods. Anyway, whether my suspicions are founded or not, I really hope City stand firm and don’t give in to what looks very much like an attempt by Kia and Milan to back us into a corner.
I agree. To force a move we must show him we are prepared to have him sit out the remainder of his contract at the club.bobmcfc said:Release a statement to the press stating we have requested that Carlos returns to training at Carrington as no suitable offers have been made and we would like him available for selection.

I can't remember the paper but I partly read an artilce at the weekend that so far we have fined him 8million in wages for his walkabout.
