Earlier this week, it was confirmed that Juma Bah had signed for Manchester Metropolis, earlier than instantly being loaned to Ligue 1 facet RC Lens. It comes after , after taking the choice to .
Valladolid expressed their fury on the assertion, however now Bah’s agent Patrick Mork has rebuked the claims made by the La Liga membership in a response (through ).
“In my nearly 40 years as a footballers’ agent I’ve carried out numerous agreements and transfers with soccer groups world wide and I’ve by no means been in such an absurd, unreal and mindless scenario because the one I’m experiencing now. Sadly, the statements made by the Actual Valladolid board of administrators lead me to write down these strains.
“When the membership determined to signal him, a mortgage contract was obtained with an possibility to purchase, thus avoiding any financial threat, and an employment contract was negotiated with the participant by me. For that contract, conscious that they have been hiring a younger and unknown boy however who stood out for his monumental potential, Actual Valladolid demanded circumstances that have been accepted virtually with out opposition or negotiation. A part of these circumstances was a termination clause the place the membership stipulated the value of the participant for an computerized termination of the contract.
“Given the latest behaviour of the Actual Valladolid board, I wish to make clear that neither Juma nor I, his agent, rejected the change of contract from the youth workforce to the reserve workforce or the primary workforce. That’s completely and categorically false. What’s extra, Actual Valladolid by no means contacted us to make that change of license. Neither is it true that we denied a renewal of the contract with an enchancment in wage circumstances.”
Mork additionally confirmed how the deal to take Bah to Man Metropolis unfolded.
“Some golf equipment supplied much more than the value set by the discharge clause, however Actual Valladolid didn’t settle for any. Considered one of these golf equipment confirmed a particular curiosity in Juma and, after making an attempt an amicable negotiation, determined, voluntarily, consciously and analysing the scenario as a complete, to pay the value of the termination clause to launch the participant from his contract with Actual Valladolid and proceed together with his contract. A process that, removed from the slander that has been stated, is protected by legality.”
