[Sports law, football law] Did you know…? Part 1.

Conclusions from the justification of the decision of the sports arbitration court:

  • When settling sports disputes, the FIFA Tribunal is primarily guided by the principle of "pacta sunt servanta", which is the principle of contractual stability and loyal adherence to contractual obligations.
  • In "football" disputes, it is common practice for the arbitration court to adjudicate interest for late payment in the amount of 5%, which applies in particular to claims for payment by football clubs, coaches, and players for late payment.
  • The FIFA Dispute Resolution Chamber (DRC) as the adjudicating body of FIFA is entitled to adjudicate the consequences of failure to fulfill the contract (non-performance of the obligation), including a ban from registering any new players.
