The City of Cardiff pledges to pay the value of the Sala deal in Nantes
LONDON (Reuters) – The city of Cardiff announced Thursday that it has not yet paid for the move of Argentine striker Emiliano Sala, brought to Nantes.
But Cardiff City President Mohamed Dalman said his club would pay the first installment of the Sala Lant deal as soon as possible.
According to reports in the press Wednesday night, Nantes has asked Cardiff to send the value of the transfer of 15 million euros Sala.
The plane carrying Argentine striker Sala, 28, from France to Wales after signing the contracts for the city of Cardiff, disappeared radar screens across the Channel.
After announcing the suspension of the player's official search on January 24, 260,000 pounds ($ 340,000) were collected to fund private research.
The British authorities announced Wednesday that they had managed to find a body in the wreckage of the plane that was carrying Emiliano Sala and pilot David Abbotson, lost on the English Channel on January 21st.
This occurred a few days after the wreckage was located north of the island of Guernsey.
The British Air Accident Investigation Division confirmed that the body had been found but did not specify where it had been identified.
"All I can say is that it's sensitive," Dalman told the French newspaper L'Equipe. "I'm confident that all that is said, is that Cardiff will pay the value of the batch transaction, that's right."
"Frankly, I do not want to talk about it again." When asked why the transaction had not been paid yet, he replied, "The first reason is that the body has not been found yet."
"As we must be respected towards his family, efforts are already being made and there is no time yet to comment," he said.
