The club would like to offer clarity on a some of the issues arising from an article by Paul Rowan published in yesterday’s Sunday Times.

We are aware of a complaint made to the FA relating solely to the player’s agent.  We would like to clarify that the club is not the subject of investigation from any of the FA, FAI or FIFA.

The club is however working with FIFA to review two agency agreements. When the Chair and the Board became aware of these agreements in August 2025, independent legal advice was sought, and FIFA was proactively engaged to discuss. The process with FIFA is ongoing and the FAI has been notified.

The club’s relationship with the player and his family has always been and continues to be extremely strong.
