Aston Villa can confirm that the club’s appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport regarding the registration of Brian Madjo has been upheld.
17-year-old Madjo signed for the club from Metz in January. Born in Enfield, London and a UK citizen, he left England at a young age and was raised in Luxembourg but has been unable to play due to FIFA‘s rules on the international transfer of minors.
The striker has scored four goals in pre-season so far, including two in the opening friendly fixture against Walsall.
The court’s decision today means that Brian will be registered as an Aston Villa player and eligible to play in official competition matches for the forthcoming season.
@OfficialPLT@UmarKamani What does it take to speak with a human rather than a Chat Bot? I had an issue with my order & raised this on 2 AUGUST. I am no further forward & just keep getting passed from Chat Bot to Chat Bot repeating the same things over & over. Process refund ASAP
On Saturday we sadly lost one of our own, Shawn Francis. Shawn loved Villa & it would be amazing if there was a 12th minute applause at the next home game May 13th. Shawn is expecting his first son & we’d love to capture this moment to show him when he’s older HEITS💜 #avfc#utv
