Premier League star arrested on suspicion of rape

You can’t ban speculations.

2 more rapes…

The player in question won’t be appearing for his team for a very long time.

What happens to the money the club paid? Were City forced to pay Mendy?

When a player gets suspended it can be without pay. I believe Mendy’s was without pay.

Suspended without pay I would imagine.

At this point, the club should have a clause by default to cover these instances and make footballers liable to pay back the transfer & agent fees.
There is some cultural issue with these footballers. Seems to have worsens over the years.

Adam Johnson
Mendy
Benzema
Greenwood

and now this

I’m sure there will standard clauses in player contracts that essentially allow you to suspend pay / terminate contracts if certain things happen which presumably includes criminal charges being brought against them. I seem to recall Mutu getting his contract terminated when he failed that drugs test years ago.

I am sure there will be as well but what about millions a club pays for a player in a transfer & agent fee (or millions a club would lose from sale).
Just seems unfair that a club loses so much money.

If Partey is indeed the one accused, we are losing 45m on him.

Basically confirmed now.

Partey has deleted pics from Marbella from his IG and some arsenal players have unfollowed him

Wow!

Pics still up on his IG

“Scotland Yard have confirmed”? Is this real anywhere or just what some kid on Reddit has said?

It’s a negotiating point like any other in a contract. It has some value to the club. I suspect it is incredibly common contract language for criminal activity that results in player not being able to perform or for bringing disrepute upon club.

Sounds like an insurance claim job to me.

The player plays no part in what the selling club demands and the buying club is willing to pay.

Didn’t want to coment until now, though it was all buls****, or though it might be Xhaka… :henry2:
But now I can’t believe this is POTENTIALLY happening… Seems like a bad dream.
Absolutely devastating blow to the team if true…

But wait, wait a minute? Isn’t Bissouma under suspicion still, and he still one of the most important Tottenham signings this summer?
Doesn’t mean he’ll get Greenwood treatment right away (tbf Greenwood was undefendable after those videos)… We still know nothing. Even if he IS the player arrested it doesn’t mean he’s guilty and his career is over automatically. Right?!

Yeah, and as @SRCJJ they are still up. Fucking idiot kids chatting shit.

Its on some of the articles on this topic. The Guardian definitely says it.

Don’t think it’s Mendy bad. I think Mendy had more than a handful accusations.
It’s not looking great though.
