"Tutumlu sought compensation for his role in facilitating Kounde's move to the Spotify Camp Nou nearly four years ago. He argued that he played a key part in the negotiations but was not remunerated for his work."
"As part of his claim, Tutumlu submitted emails and WhatsApp messages with several key figures, including Ramon Planes, Mateu Alemany, Monchi, Xavi Hernandez, and Joan Laporta."
"The ruling concluded that there was no evidence of 'tacit acceptance or tacit consent by the defendant club' regarding Tutumlu's involvement in the operation. On that basis, the court rejected the claim."
"Tutumlu has confirmed that he will appeal the decision. He maintains that the ruling overlooks the evidence presented, including communications that he believes demonstrate his role in the transfer."
A Barcelona court rejected Isaac Tutumlu's €3 million claim against FC Barcelona for his alleged role in Jules Kounde's transfer. Tutumlu argued he facilitated the move from Sevilla and was not compensated. He claimed his intervention was crucial in preventing Kounde from joining Chelsea. Despite submitting communications with key figures at Barcelona, the court found no evidence of acceptance of his involvement. Tutumlu plans to appeal, asserting that the ruling ignored evidence and inconsistencies in witness testimonies.
