[Saba Sports News] In January 2019, a tragic incident
occurred in the Premier League that captured worldwide attention. Emiliano
Sala, who then transferred from French Ligue 1 club Nantes to Cardiff City, was
involved in a plane crash while flying to England. Sadly, Sala lost his life in
the accident. Following the incident, Nantes and Cardiff City found themselves
in a dispute regarding the matter and the issue of payment. After a four-year
period, Cardiff City officials have recently announced that the insurance
company has reached an agreement to settle the club’s claim related to Sala’s
untimely death. The insurance company has agreed to provide compensation for
the plane crash involving Sala. While Cardiff City has received compensation,
the specific amount has not been disclosed by the club.
