Explainer: Lassana Diarra and the legal case which could rock football's transfer market
Briefly

Diarra's legal team argues that FIFA's joint liability rules hinder player mobility and breach EU law, highlighting a shift towards more player empowerment.
Dr. Borja Garcia notes this case is a significant moment in sports law, possibly comparable to the Bosman ruling, suggesting shifts in player rights.
A ruling against FIFA may lead to rewriting regulations, allowing players greater freedom to terminate contracts, reflecting a shift from treating players as assets.
The 1995 Bosman ruling revolutionized player transfers, suggesting any changes from this case would likely be subtler yet impactful in the long-term.
