The chairman of the players union VVCS has told the Dutch media NEC star Anthony Limbombe may need to file a lawsuit against his club in order to get a transfer. The Leeds United linked attacker is currently refusing to train with NEC, which has resulted in a hefty fine.
“He will now be defaulting, which is legally refusing to work. The club can’t force him to go somewhere. An arbitration is the established way,” said Hesp on Limbombe’s situation at NEC.
Limbombe hopes to find a new club this summer, with the likes of Leeds United, Club Brugge and Toulouse all keen on the 22-year-old. Both Leeds United and Brugge have recently tabled bids to sign the player, but didn’t meet NEC’s valuation of €3m.
