The article on the Trust website which forms the basis of the email to its members highlights the use of unauthorised agents by FC Nantes and also refers to arrests in June 2023
The enclosed link details the arrests of FC Nantes President and owner Waldemar Kita and his son

The investigation into them was in respect of not only the illegal activity of agents but also forgery, misuse of corporate assets, money laundering of aggravated tax evasion and organised money laundering
Warnock really got us involved with some nice people
Yes indeed...but it also augurs well for a favourable end result....Quote:

Emiliano Sala Trust Fund: Our Chair’s View
admin December 31, 2023
Trust chair Keith Morgan
Ever since the tragic events of nearly five years ago, Cardiff City has received (in my view, unfairly) criticism from a small group of supporters about the way they have pursued legal actions and not considered enough the moral issues of the impact of the tragedy on Emiliano’s family.
Perhaps those fans have forgotten or weren’t aware that club owner Vincent Tan made a very substantial contribution into a Trust fund for the family’s benefit shortly after the accident occurred.
In contrast, FC Nantes were also asked to make a contribution into the fund in honour of their former player but declined to do so.
I believe the club has acted honourably in relation to the Sala family.
Keith Morgan
Chair
I don't think anyone, or at least anyone I know, disagrees with this statement made by by Keith in his capacity as Chair of the Trust but what has it got to do with his further revelations of the sort of people we ended up dealing with ?Quote:

Given that fees were agreed and, presumably, about to be forwarded to Nantes, our club were aware of the way things were being dealt with and were either fully involved with all knowledge or were happy to let a senior employee conduct things in the club’s name in his own questionable way.
For what it’s worth, I think Warnock played the City like a penny whistle on numerous occasions and I hope that any further mud slinging aimed our way is aimed at him with the club claiming ‘football business’ naivety. For that’s what it was in a good few of his antics.
