Eupen, Belgium (AP) – A former French international Lassanadiara lawyer said on Monday he claims 65 million euros ($76 million) from FIFA and the Belgian Football Federation. A groundbreaking legal victory<\/span> Regarding forwarding rules.<\/p>\n

Diarra’s 10-year challenge to FIFA is that he ruled in the top European Union courts last October due to the collapse of his ties with former club Lokomotiv Moscow, and that some aspects of the football transfer rules do not comply with the 27-nation bloc’s labor and competition laws.<\/p>\n

The 40-year-old former Chelsea, Arsenal and Real Madrid midfielder attorney cited “failed settlement negotiations with FIFA” for claims for damages throughout his career.<\/p>\n

“Lassanadiara is charging \u20ac65 million (\u20ac35 million) in compensation from FIFA and the Belgian Football Association,” his law firm said. DuPont Hisssel said in a statement<\/span>.<\/p>\n

FIFA has been asked to comment on the latest comments Legal Issues for High Stakes<\/span> In That authority.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the case of Diara returning to the Belgian court Supported by Global Player Union FIFPRO<\/span>its European division and the national affiliates of France.<\/p>\n

The legal case began in the home country of Charleroy, a Belgian club that wanted to sign Diara after the contract in Moscow ended.<\/p>\n

Due to the FIFA forwarding rules at the time, players and potential signing clubs were liable to pay the previous club when the contract was determined to have been broken without a “good reason.” The Arbitration Court for Sports upheld FIFA’s decision in favour of Locomotive.<\/p>\n

The lawsuit was sent to the European court, which stated that FIFA “thwarts the free movement of players and competition between clubs.”<\/p>\n

Diarara’s controversy with Lokomotiv and FIFA forced him to miss the 2014-15 season. He then signed Marseille and ended his career at Paris Saint-Germain six years ago.<\/p>\n

“I’m doing this myself,” Diala said in a statement Monday released by his lawyers. “And if I could compete with FIFA Steamroller, that’s because I had a good career.”<\/p>\n

“But I also did it for all the lesser known players who don’t have the financial and psychological means to challenge FIFA before an actual judge,” he said.<\/p>\n

Diala’s lawyers are also working on a Class action suit<\/span> It was submitted this month to FIFA and several national football federations in Europe.<\/p>\n
