    I dont think they will. They can sign for england or spain for free now, why would they stay in Portugal. Unless they really want to stick it to bdc.

    Unfortunately I can definitely see Leao staying in Portugal and joining up with Benfica. Fingers crossed the players who are in the world cup will wait until after the tournament to decide where they go because there will be plenty of interest after it.

    I personally don't think his actions made the attacks happen. I personally think the Maritimo game was the killer. CL qualification and a lot of money was at stake. Just my opinion.

    This is based on what we know today.

    that being said, I would not be surprised if it was revealed that BDC was involved in orchestrating those attacks.

    Benfica will be all over this one.

    Rafael and Pondence don't have just cause. Wasn't these two hurt?

    I was surprised. Surely SCP will use this in their favor in the battle against the others. Which makes me think there's more to a lot of this. Someone(s) was behind the players pushing for this.

    Devil's advocate but there's an argument to be made, especially with those with families, to staying in the same city

    If they stay in the same city they cant really harp on about their life being in danger at Sporting.

    Beyond that, no one lets a family get in their way of a having a succesful career that ends in their mid 30s.

    Podence and Leao i can see going to braga and benfica reepectively, but everyone else would be stupid to stay in portugal. Most of those players have been dying to leave portugal for years too.

    I can see this in some of the cases, but overall as @SCP21 notes above it wouldn't make sense based on the reasons for contract breach.

    Agreed 100%. There is something going on behind the scenes, aside from the agents, that is pushing these players to do this.

    Now, I'm under the impression that the reasons for the contact breach were unsafe work environment.

    I don't disagree with you guys in regards to most players being better off overseas. Just thinking of the human aspect of people not necessarily wanting to move a family, in certain situations.

    So the player who had most to fear over his safety (Acuna) has not breached his contract? If he doesn't fear for his safey and he was enemy #1 of the intruders how does that work? This is CRA.....ZEEEEEEY

    Where is all this stuff about Acuna being target no 1 and him being the instigator of everything? I've literally seen nothing about this besides a couple of ABola articles with no quotes in them.

    Didn't see this vid. Interesting, I wonder what Acuna did...

    Also, why was Fernando Mendes even allowed to talk. Security should have kicked him out straight away. Unbelievable how much power they give to the claque losers. Security blocked a kid from getting an autograph but left JJ and William to deal with the claques... wtf...

    Apparently SCP hiring best attorney in world to deal with cases vs players. BDC has guaranteed that if he's still around, every player will loose in court.

    In my opinion, of the 9 players, only bas dost was physically assaulted and would probably be granted just cause.

    Pondence and Leao weren't even there.

    The other 6 is a question mark.

    It's the only guarantee he shouldn't make because he knows the BS in Portugal.

    Regarding the contracts rescinded, I can't see any judge awarding just cause to players. Only one, maybe would be Dost.

    BdCs track record of guaranteeing legal victories have not been good i.e. Doyen, Vouchers.

    I think he is playing a front to try and instil belief in his administration but by virtue of reading the contents of the whats app messages to the players, i think there is a bit of worry behind closed doors

    probably, but in all honesty, taking a step back and looking at the big picture, does anyone actually think FIFA will side with the players on this one?

    I personally don't think so. They might not want to return, but SCP will be compensated sooner or later I believe.

    The more I think about some of these players rescinding, the more I start to believe that this was fueled by certain people.

    Some of these players need to put on their big boy pants. Verbally abused, cry me a river.

    Athletes are verbally abused on a daily basis from fans. It comes with the job of being a athlete.

    Don't want to be verbally assaulted or abused, go be a starbucks barista. Even then, don't mess up the drink.


    Sorry, Rant over!!!

    What about physically abused though?

    And how many players are verbally abused publicluly by their president?

    I agree tho, i dont think fifa will want to set this prescedent. I also think we wont get more than our trademarked moral victory if we do win. Probably no more than a couple mil for each player.

    Maaaaaaaaybe Dost has a chance, but all the others? Even physically, players have gone through this in past in other parts of the world.

    Lets step back for a second and ask ourselves some questions.

    Players in all sports are always verbally abused. Some by fans, some by teammates, and probably some by staff.

    Does it really matter who is verbally abusing them? At the end of the day, it doesn't. If you don't like it, leave. Which is what they're tryin to do, but in certain sports such as soccer, your contract has a monetary release clause attached to it. Only way you get out of the contract that you signed on your own is by paying that release clause.
    In Hockey, Mike Babcock is notorious for dropping F bombs with or at players. There's apparently a riff with him and Auston Matthews. Is Auston rescinding his contract that he signed?

    If before the CL final, a bunch of Madrid fans approach Ronaldo and threatened him to not loose the CL final, is that just cause? Would FIFA allow the best player in the world to walk away from madrid? F#UC NO.

    So why is it okay for SCP players to do so?

    The people behind this really misinformed these players. No way this new precedence will be allowed. Yesterday was the first warning shot when payers were notified that their release clause needs to be paid. The lawyers have started their work. I get we won't receive release clauses, but the fair market on these players should be expected at bare minimum.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see some of these players return to be honest.


    Oh, and what's with the report circulating about Frederic Varandas calling all doctors to not go work at SCP and asking Jorge Mendes to call many coaches across Europe to not accept the role at SCP?????? Seems like someone(s) are trying to some changes.

    Seems like everywhere you turn, there's some shaddiness everywhere.
