The International Football Federation (FIFA) sent a document to HAGL, forwarded to the Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) regarding the application of a penalty banning player registration for the mountain town team. This ban is related to the dispute between HAGL and player Martin Dzilah. The player born in 1997 only played 3 matches for HAGL and then had his contract terminated after suffering a serious injury.
Two months ago, the mountain town football team received a document from FIFA requesting payment of $29,000 in contract compensation to Martin Dzilah after terminating the contract with this striker. Within 45 days, HAGL must pay the above amount to Martin. The deadline to fulfill this obligation is October 15, but HAGL refused to pay.
HAGL is banned from transferring because it has not fulfilled its financial obligations to Martin.
Initially, the two sides agreed on a compensation of $20,000. However, the case took an unexpected turn when Dzilah confirmed that he had not received any money from his former team. He said that he had signed a receipt but in the end, he had not received any money. That was the reason why this foreign player asked someone to sue his former team.
On the contrary, HAGL tried to prove that they had compensated their former player. They provided evidence that Martin Dzilah worked at the team office and took souvenir photos. Afterwards, Martin Dzilah even appeared and worked with Gia Lai Provincial Police. HAGL did not provide further information because the police's work was ongoing.
FIFA's penalty will include a ban on registering new players, both domestically and internationally, which will be applied to HAGL from October 24, 2024. VFF, at FIFA's request as a FIFA member association, will apply a ban on registering new players domestically. HAGL will have the penalty lifted if it pays the full amount.
According to VTC News' investigation, HAGL will continue to make efforts to prove that it has paid Martin.
