Cardiff City tried to insure Sala for £20m the day after his death - court
High Court papers show Cardiff City sought £20m coverage for the striker the day after he died.www.bbc.co.uk
Apparently insurance brokers failed to tell Cardiff the player was not insured - maybe if they had known he was about to be signed they might have insured him ?
Alistair Schaff KC told the High Court that Cardiff City contacted insurers regarding Sala on 22 January 2019, the morning after his flight went missing off the coast of Alderney.
Mr Schaff said the club made contact via email seeking £20m coverage for Sala.
Just bizarre behaviour from Cardiff City's owners !
