CB Fry Posted 15 February, 2017 Share Posted 15 February, 2017 Nope... We thought we had a watertight deal to take Alderweireld, but the paperwork wasn't done properly, hence the threat of legal Action against athletics then no subsequent legal action. The bloke who sorted out the paper work left Saints within two months of that farce. Hence 'shenanigans'. Nah. You can't contract your way into forcing a player to sign for you when he doesn't want to. He was never our player and he was well within his rights to see what his options were at the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed.However,he did initially want to stay with us until Levi flew over to see his Dad and the rest is history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patred44 Posted 15 February, 2017 Share Posted 15 February, 2017 From Uruguayan journalist Martin Charquero on Twitter: "ATTENTION. Martin Caceres is in Paris processing his work visa. Tomorrow will be officially presented by Southampton." Havn't we got apply for his work permit ? That's how it works according to this https://www.eurojobs.com/blog/2012/02/14/how-to-get-a-eu-work-permit/ "the company will then have to apply for a work permit through their local government department, which is a long winded procedure and can take months. Most companies won’t want to waste time doing this, so they settle for someone else who could potentially do the job." perhaps I MISUNDERSTOOD IT !

trousers Posted 16 February, 2017 Share Posted 16 February, 2017 From Uruguayan journalist Martin Charquero on Twitter: "ATTENTION. Martin Caceres is in Paris processing his work visa. Tomorrow will be officially presented by Southampton." I could be missing something blindingly obvious here, but why would a Uruguayan citizen wishing to work in the United Kingdom be sorting out a work visa in France? Unless it's quicker/easier to do it in France and he then gets into the UK because of our (current) relationship with the EU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted 16 February, 2017 Share Posted 16 February, 2017 It makes sense. All around the world you have to be out of the county in question when your gets granted, and it then starts when you pass immigration when you arrive. Paris would make sense as it's about as close as you can get to Southampton while still being abroad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trousers Posted 16 February, 2017 Share Posted 16 February, 2017 I think you have to be outside of the UK to apply Ah, ok. I've been thinking that he might have been able to get around the work permit rules in the short term by coming over here on a tourist visa and 'coincidentally' pitching up at Staplewood to do some fitness work 'on his own'. i.e. not employed by the club at that point, but just some random geezer who happens to like keeping fit whilst 'on holiday'. I guess the powers that be have got that potential loophole covered though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VectisSaint Posted 16 February, 2017 Share Posted 16 February, 2017 Well I voted out so all I can say is "British centre backs for British clubs" Great, so our only centre back (current or expected) to be impacted by your vote would be Virgil.

Chris27687 Posted 16 February, 2017 Share Posted 16 February, 2017 I hope there is some clause to extend if he does well - would be frustrating if we get him fit and up to speed in the PL and then he buggers off to some other team on a free.

I could live with it, especially if his wages on a new contract were too much for FFP. We get through the end of the season potentially in a better place, transfer window screw up rectified, MC will be motivated to get match fit and put himself in the shop window. Yoshi and Jack train with him and become better players. The cost isn't prohibitive for this period of time and we got a fair wedge for an ageing but popular Fonte. most of which we still have for a younger replacement. Win-win as far as I'm concerned. Imagine if he and Virgil are able to play together by the tail end of the season, both fully fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 16 February, 2017 Share Posted 16 February, 2017 I think you have to be outside of the UK to apply. Not sure why Paris in particular. As I think I've said before, my wife is an immigration adviser & whilst sports person visas aren't her area of expertise, she said ordinarily you would have to apply from your home country or ordinary place of residence. However with some types of visa that may require a prompter service, it's likely you can apply from somewhere which allows for a quicker service. Paris would definitely be one of these & she says most likely Italy & certainly Uruguay are not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's made himself slightly more credible after changing his Twitter profile to something other than a BBC Yorkshire presenter though.
