DOHA: The Qatar Football Association (QFA) on Thursday made key
decisions regarding matters relating to players' rights and respecting
contracts.
It was announced that a player's contract would be deemed terminated
for 'just cause' in case the club fails to pay the player for 60 days.
If a player does not get paid on time, he has the right to notify the
club of the negligence and can demand payment 'within a period of 10
days'.
A final five-day notice will be a prelude to effectively terminating the contract
without any consequences.
This has been stated clearly in Article No. (28) of the Rules of and
regulations of the QFA charter, details revealed on Thursday.
Other details revealed that QFA just like any football authority
falling under the FIFA umbrella and International Court of Arbitration
for Sport - must and should honour payment to players through their
clubs.
The latest allowances made by QFA comes after a number of players all
around the world faced similar problems over lack of contractual
payments.
According to QFA, it 'will make every effort to ensure the players'
rights are protected and that there is no case of delayed payment'.
