"Swans protect players from reds"

Recommended Posts

Just wondering how an agreement like this is lawful?   If I was a player at Swansea and wanted to be employed by Liverpool, how could a completely separate employment agreement affect my choice of employer?The agreement must surely only be a gentleman''s agreement. Or one where Liverpool agree to pay some kind of excess fee on top of any normal transfer fee should they break the agreement.

If you were a Swansea player you would have absolutely no ''right'' to play for Liverpool while under contract whether they had such an agreement in place or not. Until your contract expired, at which point you would have your right to play for whoever you wish.
