Casa-Sports de Ziguinchor is “more than ever” confident about the rapid and positive resolution of the financial issue surrounding the transfer of Nicolas Jackson from Villarreal to Chelsea in 2023. This transfer should allow the Senegalese club to receive compensation of training, a subject on which he remains vigilant and determined alongside the Senegalese Football Federation.
In a press release addressed to the Senegalese Press Agency, the general manager of the team, Siaka Bodian, stressed that Casa-Sports is following “with interest, but above all discernment, lucidity and serenity” the evolution of the situation concerning this transfer. He specifies that the club is working “with the administration of the Senegalese football federation, to overcome the related difficulties in order to allow the club to return, as soon as possible, to its funds”.
Siaka Bodian speaks with conviction: “Today, more than ever, Casa-Sports is convinced that this issue will find a happy outcome. » He thus calls for the union of his supporters and sympathizers, inviting them to “strengthen the mobilization around their flagship team” so that it raises the bar in the championship and rediscovers the successes of its recent past.
According to information relayed by Sud Quotidien, an administrative omission by the Senegalese Football Federation would have prevented Casa-Sports from receiving compensation of several million CFA francs linked to this transfer. Indeed, the club would not have been registered as a trainer with the FSF, which led FIFA not to recognize Casa-Sports as a beneficiary of this essential compensation during Jackson’s transfer to Chelsea.
-As a reminder, the training allowance is financial compensation set up by FIFA to reward clubs which have trained a player between the ages of 12 and 23. It applies when this player signs his first professional contract or is transferred to another club before reaching the age of 23.
Casa-Sports continues to believe in a favorable outcome to this matter, hoping to recover the sums owed to it for its contribution to Nicolas Jackson’s career, as indicated in the columns of our colleague Sud Quotidien.
