Does anyone know if there is a clause in the deal which means he cannot play against us in April, because he is bound to score.
Would be odd if we allowed him to play. I also don’t think we’ve seen the best of him, but Ardley clearly feels he has other options.
In England the default is usually that a player can't play against his "parent club" unless it's agreed in the deal (and it's usually stated on the announcement, like Milsom's). Chelsea tried to get Atletico to not play Courtois against them in the Champions League one season unless they paid a hefty fee and UEFA basically just told Chelsea that clause in the contract was about as legitimate as Munto's £5million guarantee
