a termination without just cause.
16. The Respondent mentioned that upon the receipt of the notifications of the Claimant, the
Respondent contacted the Claimant and together the parties’ held negotiations for the amicable
resolution of the matter.
17. Additionally, the Respondent mentioned that it “drew three payment cheques in the total amount
of 228.802.-Euro in favour of the Claimant and invited the Player to receive the cheques in order to
affect the payment of the outstanding remuneration of the Claimant, on 22 August 2022.” The
Respondent further mentioned that “it must be underlined that payment via post-dated payment
cheques lie within the custom of the Club and the Player was also well-aware of this, as he accepted three
different cheques on 26 November 2021 for the payment of outstanding remuneration in the total amount
of 165.000.-Euro as follows: 55.000.-Euro on 31.03.2022, 55.000.-Euro on 30.04.2022 and 55.000.-Euro
on 31.05.2022”

the Claimant is the amount of EUR 222,653.85.
pg. 6
REF. FPSD-7289
19. In conclusion the Respondent indicated that the termination of the employment contract was
without just cause and requested the Chamber to:
(a)
directly to reduce the amount to be paid to the Player by his new club from the residual value of the
prematurely terminated contract and order that the Claimant is not entitled to any compensation for
breach of contract (as 600.000.-USD converts roughly to 610.000.-Euro and the claimed amount of
compensation is 602.419.-Euro),
(b)
to order the Player to submit a copy of the employment contract he signed with Incheon United Football
Club and to take such contract into consideration for the purposes of the calculation of the compensation
for breach of contract by waiting, if possible, until such contract comes into force (in December 2022)
before requesting information from the Player on his employment situation,
(c)
to entertain the evidence submitted under Exhibit-7 to the present correspondence for the purposes of
determining the offers made to the Player by other clubs ( 450.000.-USD to 500.000.-USD from Al-Ahli
Saudi Football Club and 600.000.-USD from Incheon United Football Club) and to admit this evidence as
a ground for adjusting the amount of compensation based on the grounds that, even if the Player did not
sign another employment contract despite such offers from other clubs, this would lead to the conclusion
that the Player failed to meet with his duty to mitigate damages.
20. The request of relief of Respondent were that the Chamber respectfully:
(a)
reject all the claims of the Claimant in full
(b)
to order that the amount of the outstanding remuneration of the Claimant is limited to 222.653,85.-Euro
and to reject the Claimant's request for the payment of compensation for breach of contract, or to reduce
the amount of compensation requested by the Claimant
c.
Additional comments of the Claimant
21. The Claimant mentioned that the proof of payment submitted by the Respondent i.e. “three cheques
for the salary of the months March, May and April (responding to a total amount of 165.000,00 EUR) have
been wrongly included in the total amount being paid by the Respondent, since to this day the cheques
have not been accepted, nor collected by the Claimant.” The Claimant is thereof still entitled to the
payment, of the salaries for the months of March, April and May 2022, amounting to a total of EUR
165,000.
22. Additionally, the Claimant indicated that none of the amounts in “LIRA correspond to the fixed salaries
the Respondent still owed and as already emphasized, the salaries has been always paid in EUR by the
Respondent.” Instead, they are clearly payments of wins and draw bonuses promised by the club to
the Claimant - majority of the payments in Turkish Lira were always made a few days after a win or
a draw by the club.
23. According to the Claimant, only three amounts can qualify as payment for the bonuses provided for
in the contract, specifically, the following payments:

TURKISH LIRA

5.768,67
11.02.2022
30.500

24. The above implies that of the Respondent only paid EUR 12,520.40, therefore regardless of the
amounts already paid, there is still an outstanding amount of EUR 57,858.75 in bonuses.
25. In conclusion the Claimant reiterated the following:
(a)
to accept this claim
(b)
to determine that the Employment Contract was unilaterally terminated by the Claimant with just
cause in accordance with article 14bis FIFA Rules on the Status and Transfer of Players.
(c)
to issue a decision condemning the Respondent to pay the amount of EUR 872.858,75 net plus (5%)

III. Considerations of the Dispute Resolution Chamber
a. Competence and applicable legal framework
26. First of all, the Dispute Resolution Chamber (hereinafter also referred to as Chamber or DRC)
analysed whether it was competent to deal with the case at hand. In this respect, it took note that
the present matter was presented to FIFA on 1 September 2022 and submitted for decision on 11
May 2023. Taking into account the wording of art. 34 of the March 2023 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.
27. Subsequently, the members of the Chamber 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 lit. b) of the Regulations
on the Status and Transfer of Players (March 2022 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 player from Belgium and a club from Türkiye.
28. Subsequently, the Chamber analysed which regulations should be applicable as to the substance of
the matter. In this respect, it confirmed that, in accordance with art. 26 par. 1 and 2 of the
Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players (March 2023 edition), and considering that the
present claim was lodged on 01 September 2022, the October 2022 edition of said regulations
(hereinafter: the Regulations) is applicable to the matter at hand as to the substance.
b. Burden of proof
29. The Chamber 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 Chamber stressed the wording of art. 13 par. 4
of the Procedural Rules, pursuant to which it may consider evidence not filed by the parties,
including without limitation the evidence generated by or within the Transfer Matching System
(TMS).
c.
Merits of the dispute
30. Its competence and the applicable regulations having been established, the Chamber entered into
the merits of the dispute. In this respect, the Chamber started by acknowledging all the abovementioned facts as well as the arguments and the documentation on file. However, the Chamber
emphasised that in the following considerations it will refer only to the facts, arguments and
documentary evidence, which it considered pertinent for the assessment of the matter at hand.
pg. 9
REF. FPSD-7289
i. Main legal discussion and considerations
31. The foregoing having been established, the Chamber moved to the substance of the matter, and
took note of the fact that the parties strongly dispute the justice of the early termination of the
contract by the Claimant, based on the alleged non-payment of certain financial obligations by the
Respondent as per the contract, in accordance with art. 14bis of the Regulations.
32. In this context, the Chamber acknowledged that its task was to determine whether the contract was
terminated by the Claimant with or without just cause and to decide on the consequences thereof.
33. The DRC observed that the Claimant asserted that the Respondent had not fulfilled its contractual
obligations towards him and therefore he had just cause to terminate the contract.
34. The members of the Chamber noted that the Respondent in its reply to the claim argued that that
the termination of the contract by the Claimant was not valid as it was in the process of negotiations
with the latter and additionally that it made certain payments to the Claimant in accordance with
the payment documents it submitted, which illustrated the payments it had made.
35. In this context the DRC analysed the documentation and highlighted that: i) the cheques were issued
after termination of the contract; the (ii) the alleged receipt of payment is an unsigned copy of a club
document, and (iii) that majority of the documents refers to amounts paid in Turkish Lira and not
EUR, the currency linked to salary payments of the Claimant.
36. In this respect, the Chamber pointed out that the said documentation as submitted by the
Respondent are not conclusive documentary evidence, on the basis of which it could be established
that it made the relevant payments to the Claimant and do not prove beyond doubt the payment of
the amounts claimed as outstanding by the Claimant.
37. Subsequently, the DRC noted that the Claimant confirmed receiving the amount of EUR 12,520.40
as bonuses, therefore, it decided that the said documents would be the only documents to be taken
into account as “proof of payment” in the assessment of the matter.
38. In continuation, the Chamber noted that the Claimant claims not having received his remuneration
for a period over more than two months. Furthermore, that the Claimant has provided written
evidence of having put the Respondent in default at least 15 days before unilaterally terminating the
contract on 23 August 2022.
39. Thus, the DRC concluded that the Claimant had a just cause to unilaterally terminate the contract,
based on art. 14bis.
pg. 10
REF. FPSD-7289
ii. Consequences
40. Having stated the above, the members of the Chamber turned their attention to the question of the
consequences of such unjustified breach of contract committed by the Respondent.
41. As a consequence, and in accordance with the general legal principle of pacta sunt servanda, the
Chamber decided that the Respondent is liable to pay to the Claimant the amounts which were
outstanding under the contract at the moment of the termination, i.e., EUR 230,000 corresponding
to the following:
-
EUR 55,000 as salary instalment due on 1 April 2022
EUR 55,000 as salary instalment due on from 30 April 2022
EUR 55,000 as salary instalment due on 31 May 2022
EUR 2,500 as salary instalment due on 1 July 2022
EUR 2,500 as salary instalment due on 30 July 2022
EUR 60,000 as salary instalment due on 31 August 2022
42. Additionally, the Chamber observed that the Claimant was entitled to the bonus payments as
claimed, which it decided that the Respondent is liable to pay in the amount of EUR 57,858.75.
43. In addition, taking into consideration the Claimant’s request as well as the constant practice of the
Chamber in this regard, the latter decided to award the Claimant interest at the rate of 5% p.a. on
the outstanding amounts as from the respective due dates until the date of effective payment.
44. Having stated the above, the Chamber turned to the calculation of the amount of compensation
payable to the player by the club in the case at stake. In doing so, the Chamber firstly recapitulated
that, in accordance with art. 17 par. 1 of the Regulations, the amount of compensation shall be
calculated, in particular and unless otherwise provided for in the contract at the basis of the dispute,
with due consideration for the law of the country concerned, the specificity of sport and further
objective criteria, including in particular, the remuneration and other benefits due to the player
under the existing contract and/or the new contract, the time remaining on the existing contract up
to a maximum of five years, and depending on whether the contractual breach falls within the
protected period.
45. In application of the relevant provision, the Chamber held that it first of all had to clarify as to
whether the pertinent employment contract contained a provision by means of which the parties
had beforehand agreed upon an amount of compensation payable by the contractual parties in the
event of breach of contract. In this regard, the Chamber established that no such compensation
clause was included in the employment contract at the basis of the matter at stake.
46. As a consequence, the members of the Chamber determined that the amount of compensation
payable by the club to the player had to be assessed in application of the other parameters set out
in art. 17 par. 1 of the Regulations. The Chamber recalled that said provision provides for a nonexhaustive enumeration of criteria to be taken into consideration when calculating the amount of
compensation payable.
pg. 11
REF. FPSD-7289
47. Bearing in mind the foregoing as well as the claim of the player, the Chamber proceeded with the
calculation of the monies payable to the player under the terms of the contract from the date of its
unilateral termination until its end date. Consequently, the Chamber concluded that the amount of
EUR 585,000 (i.e., September 2022 until May 2023 at EUR 65,000 per month) serves as the basis for
the determination of the amount of compensation for breach of contract.
48. In continuation, the Chamber verified as to whether the player had signed an employment contract
with another club during the relevant period of time, by means of which he would have been
enabled to reduce his loss of income. According to the constant practice of the DRC as well as art.
17 par. 1 lit. ii) of the Regulations, such remuneration under a new employment contract shall be
taken into account in the calculation of the amount of compensation for breach of contract in
connection with the player’s general obligation to mitigate his damages.
49. According to the information available in TMS, the player indeed found new employment with the
club Incheon United FC valid as from 1 January 2023 until 31 December 2024 for a monthly salary of
USD 58,333 per month for the period 1 January 2023 until 31 December 2023, a signing fee of USD
200,000 and monthly salary of USD 66,66 per month for the period 1 January 2023 until 31 December
2023. [approximately EUR 446,409]
50. Subsequently, the Chamber referred to art. 17 par. 1 lit. ii) of the Regulations, according to which a
player is entitled to an amount corresponding to three monthly salaries as additional compensation,
should the termination of the employment contract at stake be due to overdue payables. In the case
at hand, the Chamber confirmed that the contract termination took place due to said reason, i.e.,
overdue payables by the club, and therefore decided that the player shall receive additional
compensation.
51. In this respect, the Chamber decided to award the amount of additional compensation of EUR
195,000, i.e., EUR 65,000 times 3 as the monthly remuneration of the player.
52. The Chamber reminded the parties that, as per the last sentence of art. 17 par. 1 lit. ii) of the
Regulations, the overall compensation may never exceed the rest value of the prematurely
terminated contract.
53. Consequently, on account of all the above-mentioned considerations and the specificities of the
case at hand, the Chamber decided that the club must pay the amount of EUR 333,591 to the player
(i.e. EUR 585,000 minus EUR 446,409 plus 195,000), which was to be considered a reasonable and
justified amount of compensation for breach of contract in the present matter.
54. Lastly, taking into consideration the player’s request as well as the constant practice of the Chamber
in this regard, the latter decided to award the player interest on said compensation at the rate of
5% p.a. as 23 August 2023 of until the date of effective payment.
pg. 12
REF. FPSD-7289
iii. Compliance with monetary decisions
55. Finally, taking into account the applicable Regulations, the Chamber 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.
56. In this regard, the DRC 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 overall maximum duration of
the registration ban shall be of up to three entire and consecutive registration periods.
57. Therefore, bearing in mind the above, the DRC 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.
58. 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.
59. The DRC 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
60. The Chamber 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 Chamber decided that no procedural costs were to be imposed on the parties.
61. Likewise, and for the sake of completeness, the Chamber recalled the contents of art. 25 par. 8 of
the Procedural Rules, and decided that no procedural compensation shall be awarded in these
proceedings.
62. Lastly, the DRC concluded its deliberations by rejecting any other requests for relief made by any of
the parties.
