good thing we let him go to the olympics then

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

Where's all the Criers about him going the olympics gone?

 

[ToffeeTim]

Good news for us

Still find it a bit ridiculous that FIFA have allowed them to invoke the rule when the Brazil game got abandoned because they weren't happy for opponents to play without quarantine. Seems a bit ridiculous, but maybe I'm expecting too much for FIFA to show common sense.

Report above is nothing new [as in below bit 2nd sep], as what is now been said is now everyone else [reporters] catching up

Everton will not face action for refusing to release Richarlison

Brazil have agreed to cancel Richarlison's international call-up for this month's World Cup qualifiers because the striker played in both the Copa America and the Olympic Games.

Not into FIFA telling the employers who pay significant wages for an asset that they can't pick them, again, probably not legal to do so.

On the one side I want to laugh at that lot having their players prevented from playing

On the other it's absolutely criminal clubs aren't allowed to prevent their players going abroad on internationals during a bloody pandemic

Premier League: Clubs hopeful players will be cleared to play this weekend

International football should be scrapped during a pandemic its bonkers.

 

[jazzy]

Can't see that....
Surely it would only be players called up?
And Richy had permission to stay at home

You were right and the BBC in their initial report were wrong. Chapeau mate!

European football ok though ? Rugby league going to France /vice versa every week ok ? Euros ok ? Holidays for tourists ok ?

i do think given the chaos we saw for the Brazil match the banning of players is mad

 

[kenada_blue]

He's probably vaccinated and stuck to all the rules in the Copa and Olympics (as well as this international), travelling to one end of the world to the other so... they've let him go.

Simple really.

Sorry, probably being a bit slow; is he free to play then despite all the news sites saying all those players are banned (and including him in the list of names)?
