Shakhtar Donetsk chief executive Sergei Palkin warned Tottenham not to use FIFA’s loophole to snatch one of their prized assets, Manor Solomon, for free. The English club is keen to take the forward who looked good on loan at Fulham last season. Not only that, but Spurs want to take him without paying a transfer fee, which Shakhtar would normally be entitled to.But FIFA’s rules concerning Russian and Ukrainian clubs are causing havoc for the Ukrainian champions because it allows players to leave freely even if they’re still under contract.##NAJAVA_MECA_7350620##The 23-year-old Israeli forward scored four goals in 19 EPL games last season and showed he’s good enough for the division. However, Shakhtar, who paid $6.5 million to buy Solomon from Maccabi Petah Tikva in 2019, are angry at the prospect of losing the star player for nothing. Palkin told ESPN the Ukrainian club wants to use the player in the upcoming Champions League campaign.”I contacted Solomon and his agent and invited him back to our club. I said ‘you can play all the games in the Champions League, and you will be in the starting eleven’ but he doesn’t want to move. I believe he will stay in England. In any case, if you go to Tottenham, we will deal with Tottenham in court in this case. Everything comes to a simple situation: it sounds like unjust enrichment.” Прикажи ову објаву у апликацији Instagram Објава коју дели Manor Solomon (@manorsolomon) The club from Donetsk, one of the cities that were predominantly populated by Russian nationals before the war, won’t allow their nicest feathers to be plucked without compensation. Palkin said they would be active in the courtroom if necessary.”I would like to send a message to those clubs who are trying to sign our players without paying a transfer fee: Shakhtar will file claims for unjust enrichment against players or clubs who have enriched themselves and benefitted by obtaining a financial advantage. We believe these clubs who enrich themselves at Shakhtar’s expense will be obliged to pay restitutions. Those clubs should understand what they do when they decide to sign our players.”Solomon, meanwhile, has to keep quiet as he pushes for a dream move to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
