IG Bönen is bankrupt and can no longer pay its players. Some want to change – but is that easily possible? Lawyer Udo Speer has the answers.
It’s the same for amateurs as it is for professionals: there is a “deadline day”. If an amateur footballer wants to change clubs, they must have deregistered from their old club by June 30 at the latest. If that doesn’t happen, he’ll be banned for six months from his receiving club. Unless the releasing club issues a release. With contract amateurs it is completely different.
Default of payment is a classic example of extraordinary termination
Selling clubs can put obstacles in the way of players willing to change
Termination agreements between player and club are the rule
