An independent arbitrator decided this afternoon that Alex Brosque is free to go and join Shimizu S-Pulse upon payment by the Japanese club of an undisclosed transfer fee to Sydney FC.

“The arbitrator did not have the jurisdiction to hear arguments in relation to Shimizu S-Pulse-s breach of article 18.3 of the FIFA Transfer Regulations,” Vice-Chairman Scott Barlow said, “Sydney FC will now consider its options as to filing a complaint with FIFA.”

Sydney FC considers itself to be an advocate for clubs, in particular A-League clubs, standing up for themselves and their beliefs and not bowing to the demands of cashed up clubs from around the world who-ve acted outside FIFA regulations.

The club strongly believes it was right with the decisions it made and stands by them.

For Sydney FC, it was always a matter of principle and acting professionally.

“Alex Brosque has been a great servant to Sydney FC. We wish him all of the best for the future and hope to welcome him back one day.”
