In a surprising decision regarding Galatasaray's transfer of Tete last season, FIFA has ruled that both the club and the player must pay €2.5 million for the 'unfair termination of contract,' according to Yağız Sabuncuoğlu's report.

Background

Brazilian footballer Tete terminated his contract with Shakhtar Donetsk, citing the war in Ukraine as the reason.

In response, Shakhtar Donetsk filed a lawsuit against Galatasaray over Tete's departure without a transfer fee.
