II. Proceedings before FIFA
6.
On 23 October 2025, the Player filed the claim at hand before FIFA. A summary of the
parties’ respective positions is detailed below.
a. Position of the Player
7.
The Player stated that, as per art. 5.1 of the Contract, he was owed a fixed remuneration
of USD 120,000 due in 11 monthly payments of USD 10,909, which were payable at the end
of each month starting from the last day of August 2024.
8.
The Player also stated that, in accordance with arts. 5.2 and 11 par. 5 of the Contract, he
was also entitled to a signing bonus of USD 30,000 payable within 90 days from the signing
date.
pg. 5
REF. FPSD-21511
9.
The Player also mentioned that art. 5.6 of the Contract provided that he would be entitled
to flight tickets from Lisbon to Al-Qaisumah at the beginning and end of his Contract, as
well as to the costs of his visa procedures to work in Saudi Arabia.
10. The Player submitted that he only received a total of USD 90,796.68 as per the following
payments:
i. On 7 October 2024 – USD 10,856.38
ii. On 17 December 2024 – USD 10,849.75
iii. On 18 December 2024 – USD 100
iv. On 15 January 2025 – USD 3,871
v. On 17 June 2025 – USD 10,859.26
vi. On 5 August 2025 – USD 54,260.29
11. The Player asserted that the Club still owed him USD 29,203.32 as monthly salaries, broken
down as follows:
i. USD 7,384.32 for the salary of April 2025;
ii. USD 10,909.00 for the salary of May 2025; and
iii. USD 10,909.00 for the salary of June 2025.
12. The Player also affirmed that the Club failed to pay him the USD 30,000 bonus, which,
according to him, was due on 19 November 2024, i.e., 90 days after the Contract's signing
date.
13. The Player raised that it was the Club’s obligation to bear the costs associated with the
travel and the visa procedure as per arts. 5.4 and 5.6 of the Contract.
14. He explained that the Club organized his and his family’s travel to Dubai to obtain the visa,
but that the Club did not arrange for his flight to Qaisumah following the issuance of the
visa. The Player affirmed that due to a delay in the visa procedure, they missed the
connecting flight from Dubai to Qaisumah, which he had initially bought and that he again
had to purchase his own tickets for a later flight after the visa was issued.
15. The Player claimed that under art. 12bis of the FIFA Regulations on the Status and Transfer
of Players (hereinafter: the Regulations), he was entitled to receive these amounts.
16. The Player therefore made the following request for relief:
“In light of the foregoing, the Player respectfully requests the FIFA Players’ Status Chamber to:
1.Declare the claim admissible and well-founded.
2.Order Al Batin Football Club to pay the following amounts to Mr. Afonso Miguel Castro
Vilhena Taira:
pg. 6
REF. FPSD-21511
a.USD 29,203.32 - outstanding salaries;
b.USD 30,000.00 - signing bonus;
c.USD 3,152.38 and AED 2,220 (equivalent USD 604,48)- air ticket reimbursement;
d.EUR 98.55 (equivalent USD 115,00) - visa-related expenses.
3.Order the Respondent to pay interest at 5% per annum from the respective due dates
until full payment. As of 22 October 2025, total accrued interest amounts to USD 2,119.39
regarding April 2025 salary. May 2025 salary, June 2025 salary. Signing bonus and Air
ticket reimbursement and EUR 5.63 (equivalent to USD 7,00) regarding Visa-related
expenses. The interest shall continue to accrue until full payment is made.
4.Order the Respondent to bear the procedural costs of the proceedings.
5.Grant any other relief deemed appropriate.
6.The Club be subject to disciplinary measures.
Amount in dispute: USD 65 201,6 plus interest until the full payment is made.”
b. Position of the Club
17. In its reply, the Club acknowledged that the Player was entitled to the monthly salaries
claimed, which were equivalent to USD 29,203.32.
18. However, the Club contended that the bonus claimed by the Player was performancerelated as it was a “win-match bonus”. The Club submitted that the Player was to receive
this amount if the performances were deemed satisfactory in the first three months, 90days of the Contract, and that as the performances were not achieved, the Player was not
entitled to this bonus.
19. In any case, the Club stated that, as per the wording of art. 5.1. of the Contract, the fixed
remuneration was of USD 120,000, and that this amount was “subject to set-off,
counterclaim, or recoupment for any amounts advanced by the Club”. The Club therefore
submitted that should the Football Tribunal find that the Player was entitled to a
USD 30,000 bonus, it should be set off against the USD 120,000 remuneration, and thus it
should not award it.
20. As to the visa expenses, the Club categorically rejected these allegations and stated that
the Player was already in Saudi Arabia with tickets provided by the Club, and that his
presence was legitimate. The Club asserted that the Player travelled without authorization
during an injury break, and that the Club should not be responsible for these amounts.
21. The Club, therefore, made the following request for relief, quoted verbatim:
pg. 7
REF. FPSD-21511
“Based on the above, we kindly request the Honorable DRC to:
1. To accept the present Response; and
2. To rule that the Player is only entitled to USD 29,203.32 as outstanding salaries; and
3. To strictly reject any other request from the Player”.
III. Considerations of the Dispute Resolution Chamber
a. Competence and applicable legal framework
22. First of all, the Single Judge of the Dispute Resolution Chamber (hereinafter: the Single Judge)
analysed whether he was competent to deal with the case at hand. In this respect, he took
note that the present matter was presented to FIFA on 23 October 2025 and submitted for
decision on 21 January 2026. Taking into account the wording of arts. 31 and 34 of the
January 2026 edition of the Procedural Rules Governing the Football Tribunal (hereinafter:
the Procedural Rules), the aforementioned edition of the Procedural Rules is applicable to
the matter at hand.
23. Furthermore, the Single Judge referred to art. 2 par. 1 of the Procedural Rules and observed
that in accordance with art. 23 par. 1 in combination with art. 22 par. 1 lit. b) of the
Regulations (July 2025 edition), the Dispute Resolution Chamber is competent to deal with
the matter at stake, which concerns an employment-related dispute with an international
dimension between a Portuguese player and a Saudi club.
24. Subsequently, the Single Judge analysed which regulations should be applicable as to the
substance of the matter. In this respect, he confirmed that, in accordance with art. 29 of
the Regulations, the July 2025 edition of the Regulations is applicable to the matter at hand
as to the substance.
b. Burden of proof
25. The Single Judge recalled the basic principle of burden of proof, as stipulated in art. 13
par. 5 of the Procedural Rules, according to which a party claiming a right on the basis of
an alleged fact shall carry the respective burden of proof. Likewise, the Single Judge
stressed the wording of art. 13 par. 4 of the Procedural Rules, pursuant to which he may
consider evidence not filed by the parties, including, without limitation, the evidence
generated by or within the Transfer Matching System (TMS).
pg. 8
REF. FPSD-21511
c. Merits of the dispute
26. Having established the competence and the applicable regulations, the Single Judge
entered into the merits of the dispute. In this respect, the Single Judge started by
acknowledging all the above-mentioned facts as well as the arguments and the
documentation on file. However, the Single Judge emphasised that in the following
considerations he would refer only to the facts, arguments and documentary evidence,
which he considered pertinent for assessing the matter at hand.
i. Main legal discussion and considerations
27. The Single Judge then moved to the substance of the matter and took note of the fact that
the parties dispute the amount of outstanding remuneration under the Contract.
28. On one hand, the Player submitted that he was owed USD 29,203.32 as outstanding
salaries, USD 30,000.00 as a signing bonus, USD 3,152.38, and AED 2,220 (equivalent USD
604,48) for flight ticket reimbursement, and EUR 98.55 as reimbursement for visa-related
expenses.
Outstanding monthly salaries:
29. On the other hand, the Club acknowledged that the Player had outstanding salaries but
disputed the Player’s entitlement to his bonus remuneration as well as to reimbursement
of his flight tickets and visa expenses.
30. In this context, the Single Judge acknowledged that his task was to determine the amount
owed to the Player.
31. In this regard, as the parties agreed that the Player had USD 29,203.32 as outstanding
monthly salaries, the Single Judge decided to award them. As per the longstanding practice
of the Football Tribunal, coupled with the request for relief of the Player, the Single Judge
also awarded interest at a rate of 5% p.a. as follows:
- 5% interest p.a. over the amount of USD 7,384.32 from 1 May 2025, for the salary of April
2025;
- 5% interest p.a. over the amount of USD 10,909.00 from 1 June 2025 for the salary of May
2025; and
- 5% interest p.a. over the amount of USD 10,909.00 from 1 July 2025 for the salary of June
2025.
pg. 9
REF. FPSD-21511
Bonus remuneration and sign-on fee
32. Regarding the bonus remuneration of USD 30,000 included at art. 5.2 and art. 11.5 of the
Contract, the Player submitted that it was not paid, whereas the Club contended that, first,
it was a performance-related bonus for the first 90 days at the Club, and second, that in
any case, this amount was included in the total value of the Contract of USD 120,000 as per
art. 5.1 of the Contract.
33. In that sense, the Single Judge recalled the arts. 5.1. and 5.2. of the Contract, which stated¸
quoted verbatim:
“5.1. Fixed monthly remuneration
The Club shall pay the Player a total fixed remuneration of USD 120,000 (one hundred twenty
thousand US Dollars) as salary during the 2024/2025 season. This amount is subject to set-off,
counterclaim, or recoupment for any amounts advanced by the Club, or owed by the Player to
the Club, including fines or sanctions.
The total remuneration shall be divided into eleven (11) equal monthly installments of USD
10,909 (Ten thousand nine hundred nine dollars), with the first installment due on the last day
of August 2024.

“
34. As from the wording of these two articles, the Single Judge found that the fixed monthly
remuneration and the bonus are two distinct amounts that are independent of each other.
In that sense, the Single Judge rejected the argument that the bonus is included in the
monthly remuneration.
35. This is further supported by the wording of art. 3.5 of the Transfer Agreement, which
provided, quoted verbatim: “3.5 Al-Batin agrees to pay the Player bonus of thirty thounsand
(sic) dollars ($30,000 USD) within three months of the signing of the contract. This payment is
separate from and in addition to the fixed remuneration outlined in clause 3.2.”
36. Regarding the second argument raised by the Club that the bonus was performancerelated and that the Player has not met the performance requirements for the bonus to be
triggered, while the Single Judge acknowledged that art. 5.2 of the Contract labels the
pg. 10
REF. FPSD-21511
bonus “Win-Match-Bonus”; he noted that it did not list any conditions, rather it stated that
this amount was going to be “Payable within 90 days from signing this contract”.
37. In that sense, the Single Judge recalled the principle of contra proferentem, which provides
that a contract must be interpreted against its drafter in case of ambiguity.
38. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for the sake of completeness, the Single Judge noted
that art. 11 par. 5 of the Contract also provided that the Player would receive an amount
of USD 30,000 within 90 days of signing the Contract, without any condition precedent.
39. In that order of ideas, the Single Judge determined that the Player was entitled to
USD 30,000 as bonus remuneration due at the latest on 19 November 2024. As per the
longstanding practice of the Football Tribunal, coupled with the request for relief of the
Player, the Single Judge decided to award interest at a rate of 5% p.a. as from the following
day, i.e. 20 November 2024.
Reimbursement of flight tickets and visa expenses
40. The Player also claimed USD 3,152.38 and AED 2,220 corresponding to flight ticket
reimbursement, as well as EUR 98.55 for the reimbursement of his visa expense. The Player
submitted evidence of paying these amounts and also provided a copy of an email that he
sent to the Club requesting reimbursement of these amounts on 12 September 2024.
41. The Club has disputed that the Player was allowed to claim these expenses as it stated that
the Player was already in Saudi Arabia with the proper authorizations and that he, and his
family, were flown at the Club’s expenses. The Club stated that these expenses were
incurred by the Player for a personal trip to Dubai while he was injured.
42. The Single Judge noted that, as per the longstanding jurisprudence of the Football Tribunal,
once a player alleges that a club failed to pay him certain amounts, the burden of proof
shifts onto the club to demonstrate that it indeed paid the amounts as per its contractual
obligations. In the present case, the Single Judge recalled that arts. 5.4 and 5.6 of the
Contract provided the Player and his family with round-trip tickets from Lisbon to
Qaisumah as well as the costs of his visa.
43. While the Club disputed the Player’s claim, it did not provide any evidence supporting its
position, nor an answer to the Player’s email. In that sense, the Single Judge considered
that the Club did not provide evidence in support of its position and thus failed to discharge
its burden of proof under art. 13 par. 5 of the Procedural Rules.
44. As the Player evidenced his expenses, the Single Judge decided to follow the longstanding
practice of the Football Tribunal, which, coupled with the specific request for relief of the
Player, awarded him interest at a rate of 5% p.a. as from the following day of the purchase
as follows:
pg. 11
REF. FPSD-21511
-
5% interest p.a. over the amount of USD 3,152.38 as flight ticket reimbursement as
from 3 September 2024;
5% interest p.a. over the amount of AED 2,220 as flight ticket reimbursement as from
3 September 2024; and
5% interest p.a. over the amount of EUR 98.55 as a visa fee reimbursement as of 3
September 2024.
ii. Art. 12bis of the Regulations
45. The Single Judge then referred to art. 12bis par. 2 of the Regulations, which stipulates that
any club found to have delayed a due payment for more than 30 days without a prima facie
contractual basis may be sanctioned, in accordance with art. 12bis par. 4 of the Regulations.
46. To this end, the Single Judge confirmed that the Claimant put the Respondent in default of
payment of the amounts sought, which had fallen due for more than 30 days, and granted
the Respondent at least 10 days to cure such breach of contract.
47. Accordingly, the Single Judge also confirmed that the Respondent had delayed a due
payment without a prima facie contractual basis. It followed that the criteria enshrined in
art. 12bis of the Regulations were met in the case at hand.
48. The Single Judge further established that, by virtue of art. 12bis par. 4 of the Regulations,
the Single Judge has competence to impose sanctions on the club. On account of the above
and bearing in mind that this is the first offense by the Respondent within the last two
years, the Single Judge decided to impose a warning on the Respondent in accordance with
art. 12bis par. 4 lit. a) of the Regulations.
49. The Single Judge also highlighted that a repeated offence will be considered as an
aggravating circumstance and lead to a more severe penalty, in accordance with art. 12bis
par. 6 of the Regulations.
iii. Compliance with monetary decisions
50. Finally, taking into account the applicable Regulations, the Single Judge referred to art. 24
par. 1 and 2 of the Regulations, which stipulate that, with its decision, the pertinent FIFA
deciding body shall also rule on the consequences deriving from the failure of the
concerned party to pay the relevant amounts of outstanding remuneration and/or
compensation in due time.
51. In this regard, the Single Judge highlighted that, against clubs, the consequence of the
failure to pay the relevant amounts in due time shall consist of a ban from registering any
new players, either nationally or internationally, up until the due amounts are paid. The
pg. 12
REF. FPSD-21511
overall maximum duration of the registration ban shall be of up to three entire and
consecutive registration periods.
52. Therefore, bearing in mind the above, the Single Judge decided that the Respondent must
pay the full amount due (including all applicable interest) to the Claimant within 45 days of
notification of the decision, failing which, at the request of the Claimant, a ban from
registering any new players, either nationally or internationally, for the maximum duration
of three entire and consecutive registration periods shall become immediately effective on
the Respondent in accordance with art. 24 par. 2, 4, and 7 of the Regulations.
53. The Respondent shall make full payment (including all applicable interest) to the bank
account provided by the Claimant in the Bank Account Registration Form, which is attached
to the present decision.
54. The Single Judge recalled that the above-mentioned ban will be lifted immediately and prior
to its complete serving upon payment of the due amounts, in accordance with art. 24 par.
8 of the Regulations.
d. Costs
55. The Single Judge referred to art. 25 par. 1 of the Procedural Rules, according to which
“Procedures are free of charge where at least one of the parties is a player, coach, football agent,
or match agent”. Accordingly, the Single Judge decided that no procedural costs were to be
imposed on the parties.
56. Likewise, and for the sake of completeness, the Single Judge recalled the contents of art.
25 par. 8 of the Procedural Rules and decided that no procedural compensation shall be
awarded in these proceedings.
57. Lastly, the Single Judge concluded his deliberations by rejecting any other requests for
relief made by any of the parties.
