Shakhtar Donetsk chief executive on transfers: ‘Some agents are destroying us’
Shakhtar Donetsk chief executive Sergei Palkin has accused football agents of seeking to exploit the war in Ukraine and he has claimed that a FIFA ruling this week weakened the negotiating position of Ukrainian clubs attempting to raise vital funds via the sale of foreign players.
The Ukrainian club is hoping to negotiate the sale of several overseas players registered to their club due to the ongoing war in the country, but a FIFA stipulation is weakening their hand in the market. The Ukrainian domestic campaign was suspended in February following the outbreak of war, but discussions are ongoing about restarting the league in August, although the location remains undecided.
Between the war breaking out in February and the end of the season, temporary regulations had been imposed by FIFA that allowed foreign players registered with Ukrainian clubs to play elsewhere. A ruling this week by FIFA extended this by a further year, as a FIFA statement on Tuesday revealed that foreign players and coaches contracted to Ukrainian clubs have the right to suspend their contracts until June 30, 2023, due to the ongoing war.
