Ethan Ampadu

[CREDYGRECIAN]

Interesting to read the professional football compensation committee who decide the tribunal fee don't take into consideration what the player does following the transfer e.g. Ampadus Chelsea first team games and how he's played well isn't considered...

Read that when reading about Dom Solanke move from Chelsea to Liverpool (free transfer) but Chelsea demanding 10 million? Kettle black.

Does the Tribunal sit in public or private ?

 

[CREDYGRECIAN]

Couldn't find that - from reading it though it suggests a lot of tribunels takes 12 months to happen

As far as i know, tribunal panels sit in private but the outcome is always made public so it makes no difference whether or not the club publish it.

There is a deadline on each club submitting their respective dossiers (i love dossiers, me) but i don't think there's then a deadline on when the actual hearing takes place thereafter. I'd guess it depends on how much "evidence" there is to consider. Each club has to include within this their own valuation so how far apart these are may also string things out a bit. I believe that once the panel have sat the results are usually Announced: within a few days.

Glad it's going to be made public - wouldn't be right if the club didn't disclose this type of information

Hopefully we're not jumping the gun on this one. I reckon we'll get 1.5 up front with various add-ons. But, if his appearances for Chelsea are taken into account, then it could be 3m.
Can either party appeal?

Can either party appeal?

No, the tribunal decision is final as far as i know.

No, the tribunal decision is final as far as i know.

Thanks. Any guess on the fee we'll get?

No, the tribunal decision is final as far as i know.

I am pretty sure that is right.

I think Chelsea’s delaying tactics will really backfire on them on this occasion and we’ll be in for a very big payout. I say this for two reasons. Firstly the Tribunal’s assessment of value is partially based on future potential. I would argue that that potential has already been fulfilled with international caps, Chelsea first team appearances and rave press reviews. Consequently the payout must reflect that realised potential.

Secondly I see the whole Tribunal process itself as being under great scrutiny to see if it can deliver genuine fairness for the smaller clubs. Ampadu is such a talent that this could very well be a landmark case.

Ampadu’s current valuation must be in the region of £20m. I would be extremely disappointed if we don’t receive a sum approaching half of that valuation.
