PAFO FC Clarifies 'Cardoso Clause' Details

There was confusion regarding a release clause for Juan Carlos Cardoso when Spartak Moscow expressed interest. Initially, a figure of €600,000 was reported, but Pafos FC denied the existence of a fixed financial clause. According to Pafos, this amount was not a set release fee, but a contract buyout formula that varied depending on the timing of any offer. An earlier offer would have resulted in a higher amount. Pafos is seeking to clarify the matter, as it has sparked discussion among the team's supporters.
