Six years after Emiliano Sala's tragic death in a plane crash, Cardiff City's chairman Mehmet Dalman remains disheartened that no substantial regulatory changes in football have emerged from this tragedy. Sala, who was Cardiff's record signing, died alongside pilot David Ibbotson when their plane went down in the Channel. Despite the outpouring of grief and legal battles, including Cardiff's ongoing claim against Nantes for over £100 million, Dalman asserts that this incident has failed to trigger necessary reforms in the sport's transfer industry, viewing the lack of action as a significant missed opportunity.
Dalman stated that the tragedy should have led to significant regulatory changes in football, highlighting the ongoing lack of safety in transfer operations.
Despite the loss of Sala and the pilot in the crash, Dalman expressed frustration that the hoped-for reforms in football's transfer regulations have not materialized.
