FA to investigate Adryan transfer
The Football Association will investigate the transfer of Adryan to Leeds after claims of third party ownership, something that is strictly prohibited under the League’s rules.
The 20-year-old Brazilian signed for Leeds last summer on a season-long loan from Flamengo, with a view to a permanent move at the end, something that looks increasingly unlikely due to Adryan’s lack of playtime during the season.
Leeds owner Massimo Cellino confirmed discussions with the FA will take place tomorrow, but has denied that Leeds are guilty of breaking the rules. The news comes just days after Cellino’s ban imposed by the Football League expired.
The FA declined to comment on the story, but Cellino told the Yorkshire Evening Post that “I’m seeing lawyers from the FA tomorrow. They tell me there is a problem so I asked them to come here and see me.”
Adryan featured 13 times for the Whites this season, despite the initial large interest surrounding his transfer, the last being the 3-2 defeat to Watford in February.
Cellino said that he faced more problems than he left when he returned to the club this week, and this is another issue to add to the increasingly long list.
