Fifa launch desperate mission to prevent transfer fees from being SCRAPPED after landmark Lassana Diarra case

Former Chelsea, Arsenal and Portsmouth midfielder Diarra’s victory at the European Court of Justice had his lawyer Jean Louis Dupont declaring the only possible outcome will be the end of clubs being able to demand fees for players.
