Emiliano Sala's death will likely lead to an awkward conflict between Nantes and Cardiff City over the payment of the player's transfer fee, but the French and Welsh clubs could be joined by Mallorcan team Platges de Calvia, who compete in the Balearic third division, in arguing over payments.
In 2006/07, at the age of 17, the Argentine played for Mallorcan side Soledat as part of the Proyecto Crecer - the Growth Project, in English - and this club was taken over by Platges de Calvia in 2016.
According to news site Ultima Hora, they want to consult with FIFA over the potential payment of training compensation as a percentage of the 17 million euros fee that Cardiff City agreed with Nantes.
"If the international rules regarding training compensation are applied then we have a right to receive a fee," club president Armando Perez Costas told Efe.
"As such, we want our legal team to get in touch with FIFA and to determine if there is such a possibility, although we have not demanded or asked for anything at this moment in time.
"I don't know what the clauses were in the contract signed between the English [sic] and French clubs, but it's true that there is a transfer that has been signed and a debt between one institution and another."

None of these bumbling clubs should deserve that money, like I said in another comment of this topic, just give it to his family!

Cardiff should have insurance for all their players. It depends if they added sala to the insurance list on time. If they did then they should get a payout from the insurance and they should then pay Nantes and all the clauses will be honoured

for me the £15m should be divided equally among Nantes, Cardiff, the families of both sala and ibbotson (the 4 of them will receive £3750000 each)

I believe Nantes desrver the payment, Cardiff already signed a contract with them. Moreover if Cardiff didn't go for Sala, Sala would still be alive by now. Pay Nantes their money and Nantes can sort out their family.

Even though Sala signed the contract, Cardiff never actually got their player. So why are clubs using his death to get more money? I say give the fee to his family or start a charity in his name. Do something good for once.

to be sincere and clear sala's formal club are not supposed to ask for any money, because Cardiff city could not probably pay for what they do not/ have not use!!
When you say to be clear , are you speaking about the law of contract or just moral law. As I have explained earlier . The position of common law on contract is that , a valid contract had been signed , there has been a valid consideration made , property had already passed from Nantes to Cardiff the moment the player sets foot for outdoor at Cardiff . But Moral law can not preclude payment to Nantes if they demand same . Cardiff had been silly and lazy not to take their own airline to lift their prized possession from Nantes

Two things should be clear , in law , there’s a transfer that has been validly made , Cardiff owes Nantes , but morally Nantes shouldn’t be head demanding what’s left , if some has been paid , or else they have to come to some form of compromise with Cardiff since they have lost the subject matter of the sale. Unfortunately guys , it’s business wether or not Sala is alive or dead , as soon as the funeral is organized the business books need to be addressed

Come on Mans ! not confuse all ! It s normal than Nantes want the money ..The player was a Cardiff 's player..The club must pay ..Sala was go.see Cardiff ,every thing were do ! It s very sad of course but it s hard to say ,the world not stop..Sorry but I don t understand the people say than it s not well because the club ask money !! No sense at all ! In this case ,may be is more disgusting when they stop looking for them because cost to much !!!!! Sorry but it s like that !
There should be respect , nothing stop them from asking for their share, even after Sala would have been buried. asking for money at this time is an indications of where their love is.

Poverty is a curse, this mean there are clubs that pray for their player's to die so that they can be compensated. The death of Sala should be investigated

These people don't have respect. The least they can do is to at least honour the memory of Sala instead of going out there with their own agendas. You should be ashamed of yourself
