The Dutch Telegraaf reports that Feyenoord has sued Boavista as they have never paid any transfer fees for Robert Boženík.
The public knowledge management portal of FIFA shows a long list of club sanctions. Boavista is a typical example among European clubs, with as many as 30 transfer bans. This indicates that the club has repeatedly violated payment obligations or failed to pay player fees, similar to the case with Boženík.
Transfer bans usually mean that a club cannot bring in new players during one or more transfer windows. Clubs like Chelsea and Barcelona have faced transfer bans for improperly recruiting foreign youth players, which is considered a serious sanction. The number of sanctions against Boavista highlights the severity of their issues.
In the Netherlands, a club’s license to operate can be revoked or they can be required to reorganize if they cannot prove they have a sound financial policy and the ability to complete an entire league season. However, despite its numerous problems, Boavista has been allowed to continue operating, showing a lack of oversight by FIFA and the Portuguese Football Federation. This reflects how FIFA, while verbally emphasizing strict rules and sanctions, often fails to act in practice.
