I'd have thought the transfer itself would be a separate issue to the player's contract, but it's all guesswork on my part of course.
im looking back at the bits and pieces i have Jon and it also says that the paperwork received from the French Fa and lodged with the premier league to say he was no longer registered with Nantes was dated 4 days after his passing. All this to one side though and surely he must have been insured with one of the clubs?
