The Football Players Association of India (FPAI) said on Monday that 'Force Majeure' (termination of contracts ahead of time) and signing new players for the new season at the same time, cannot be done simultaneously. This statement of the FPAI came after the termination of the agreement of some players of East Bengal FC from April 30. FPAI is receiving calls from concerned players that their agreement has been terminated ahead of time. Many clubs have a force majeure clause in the players' contract which gives them the authority to terminate the contract.
FPAI Director-General Cyrus Confectioner told IANS on Monday, "If you are implementing the Force Majeure clause and on the other hand, we are signing agreements with new players, this cannot be accepted. We have FIFA on Fos Mejeur Notice, this rule does not apply 100 per cent to clubs unless the club makes certain guidelines. " He said, "If there is five months left for the season to end, like December, then it makes sense, but it is not right to end the contract two months ago."

In 2018, Quess, which invested in East Bengal, said that it would step down from the club after May 31. The confectioner said, "We have spoken to our players and our advice is that they come to us. Send us all the information about the termination of the contract and we will take it to the AIFF. If we cannot reach a solution with the club then our The pass is FIFA. We are always with the players and always will be. "
