Jean-Jacques Gosso Gosso’s situation reflects the complexities and regulations governing player transfers in football. While he impressed during the test with Brest, the timing of the termination of his contract with Orduspor means that he cannot officially sign with a new club until January 1st, per FIFA regulations.
The potential consequence of missing out on the Africa Cup of Nations (CAN) adds further significance to the situation. Sabri Lamouchi, the coach of the Ivory Coast national team, seems to have a policy that players without a club won’t be selected for the CAN. If this policy is strictly followed, Gosso Gosso might face the challenge of being excluded from the tournament.
The dynamics of player transfers, contracts, and national team selections often involve navigating various rules and regulations, making it a complex process for both players and clubs.
