It could be a failed drugs test for PED’s as he thought he was going to be out for the rest of the season when he tore his hamstring. And when it got delayed and restarted he could have failed a test and they club has said We don’t want anything to do with that.

That’s not a rumour it’s just what could have happened.

Another club will soon sign him up and say they can sort him out.
He will go for a good signing on fee and come out of it really well.

Probably end up at Middlesbro. as Neil Warnock and him know each other well.



im sure the club have looked at this thoroughly before throwing away a potential 7 figure fee.
it does sound as if there might be alleged criminal issues ?

If it was taking drugs he’d also have a ban so won’t be playing until next year atleast

generally clubs keep faith and arrange rehab and such... as the player is an asset like WBA did with Berahino ..

I highly highly doubt it was drink driving as if it was that would have came out in press the day it happened if not the day after.

Whatever it was We now need to sign another winger and preferably very soon.

Yes they do, but in the current climate if it was a failed drugs test. Would the club be willing to pay his wages for the next 6 months during his ban if he’s only got a year left of his contract?

i suppose length remaining on his contract comes into it too .... just guessing because it really is very unusual..

I think sometimes it's best if you don't know for a fact, just don't say anything. There's alot of bullshit on this thread dragging his name through the dirt without knowing f**k all.

So is it a theft issue or a social distancing one?
Kids have to take lunch boxes, and no one can touch them or the food and drinks inside nowadays.

you are correct...but it does go with the territory of being high profile and well paid... its obviously something very serious and without knowing what there will be speculation..

I agree a lot of guess work but you can’t blame fans for that as he was many fans idol and they feel let down.

All speculation, but what i will say that if it was drink driving there have been many players at many clubs that have got done for drink driving and taking drugs, and clubs as a general rule stand by their player.
I do think it is something that is more serious than that. We will all have to wait and see. It will come out in time :thumbup:

The player's contract termination is not mutual and it is an action which has been taken by Cardiff City upon learning of an alleged breach of contract.

Re: UPDATED: " NATHANIEL MENDEZ-LAING LEAVES CARDIFF CITY "

Wed Sep 09, 2020 2:53 pm

It must be bad. We wouldn't bin off an asset like that if it was a case of rehab or similar.

Whilst I agree, if you get sacked from a job it’s normally for a serious breach of contract. So people will obviously speculate.

Wez,

A club like ours who need talent like Mendez don’t terminate for no reason and make statements like they have without it being very serious.

And Mendez-Laing looks like having a serious court case ahead of him.
