Yannis Salibur has had a very stressful week. The subject of deadline day negotiations between Hull City and Guingamp, Salibur will have believed he was a Premier League player last week, before FIFA questioned the paperwork.
Hull City and and Guingamp have now given up on the transfer, and some insight about the situation has been reported in France on Wednesday.
French newspaper L’Equipe report that Guingamp would have received around €10m for the forward, but Hull City, according to the claims, sent the paperwork off too incomplete.
L’Equipe suggest the paperwork wasn’t ‘well crafted’ enough by Hull, and it seems in the panic to get the paperwork through before the cut-off, too much was left out and FIFA just simply believed the details to be too incomplete.
Desplat added that Gungamp and Hull will speak again towards the end of the season to try and resurrect the transfer.
