If a club triggers a release clause then "legally" the club holding the contract has to honour that contract irrespective of how the buying club establishes that contract clause.
I think this is a storm in the preverbal tea cup.
Levy isn't that stupid.
Not really worried about the delay itself but more about whether anyone else tries to come in and gazump us.
Not in the mood to be gazumped today.

What’s his release clause? Do it Levy
They didn't prove it, they threatened it and Liverpool backed off
That’s true.
Liverpool got him eventually but it’s been years since anyone even tried I think.
This is best to ignore tbh. Forest putting up a fight for their fans but the clause is public now… it’s done for MGW and Forest
Yeah, that's fair. However, Liverpool did apologise for their conduct, which is an admission of guilt in itself, but no it wasn't "proven."
I can tell you don’t work in law…. that is not ‘legally’ how it must work. There could be clearly worded stipulations within that release clause. One of the most likely being that it may not be shared with third parties.
The likely scenario is that an NDA was breached - with information leaked to a third party.
It won’t affect the overall contractual obligations but a potential claim could be made alongside.
He's just a Demis Roussos tribute act. And a crap one at that.
The Premier League actually stared to investigate but there was a lack of evidence.
What happened in theory is that Southampton got pissed at Liverpool, told them to fuck off because they were taking the piss...and eventually they both agreed that the move will go through with Liverpool paying them more money.
If he was due a medical today, Forest must have been aware, and sanctioned the deal.
There's no way Levy wouldn't have done his due diligence and the club arranged a medical.
This i think is paper talk, and Forest can do nothing about it if the release clause has been met even of the information was leaked by his agent, or even the player himself, confidential or not.
No they didn’t, they complained to the Premier league and the Premier league after an initial investigation dropped the complaint due to insufficient evidence.
It’s as simple as the agent saying he mentioned it in passing to another agent and then it worked its way back to Spurs - case finished
Isn't this what agents are for?
That Prince Vultan owner of theirs is petty af.
Knew when he charged onto the pitch to bad up Nuno he wasn't wired right.
You’d have thought.
Although perhaps they’re also for leaking release clauses.
I'd rather this was wrapped up so we could move on to the next signing
The only worry here is Man City etc thinking let’s get him and then matching the release clause.
Forest aren’t going to hold him, it’s a release clause and the pace this deal has moved at all ready, I cannot believe for a second that in the space of 24 hours they have solid evidence of tapping up
