So can someone tell me if the release clause has been met or is met also by another club why he can't say yes I want to go no hard feelings and he says he wants a new challenge. Else why would a release clause be in a contract.
 
When people say we’re the only ones this kind of thing happens to 😂

Whole transfer market would grind to a halt if clubs absolutely did not ever speak to players.

United have used the media to indirectly tap players up for decades.
1st they leak that they're keen.
Then the player leaks that he'd be interested.
Then United leak a ballpark wage amount.
Then the player doesn't turn up for training and it's all over.
Yet no one from United ever met the player, your honour.
 
Which would—if this the standard form of words—make all release clauses confidential
Unless of course the release clause itself (which would be added to this form via the additional clauses provision at the end) stated otherwise.

But Forest has apparently been soliciting bids for MGW well in excess of his release clause. That seems completely insane, but it definitely indicates they thought this was a secret.
 
It’a hilarious really isn’t it?

We trigger a release clause..

Forest say no, because it’s a secret clause. We’ll report you. But if you give us more money we’ll forget about it.



We literally triggered the fee. We legally don’t have to pay anymore. Forest have to literally prove we came across the information illegally. If the agent offered it up then it’s between the agent and Forest.


But we stil have to negotiate how the release clause is paid…. Or stump up 60M upfront
 
I've just been looking on the Forest fans' forum. They want him GONE, big time, as soon as possible.

He's rapidly becoming their Judas.

 
Just really annoying that the enjoyment of the rarest of things in modern football, a big transfer being completed in hours from first rumour, has been delayed.

Hope it gets done soon but we also need to crack on elsewhere in the meantime. Really need that ball playing 6 and left sided defender at a minimum.
 
For a football financial expert, that Mr Bean bloke's thinking is quite muddled. I could do his job.

I think the point is he's a football finance expert and not a contract law expert. As Jordan says, it's going to be very difficult to prove inducement.
 
Bit unfair on him, doubt he's done anything wrong. Still turning up to training etc. Seems pretty professional
Their complaint is that he's been stating publicly that Forest is his team forever (etc) whilst behind closed doors he's been refusing to enter into a new contract - then this has blown up and many fans think he's the catalyst.

I assume we're now their rival too?
