Santos accuses Barcelona of violating the transfer rules during negotiations with Lucas Lima.

Earlier it was reported that midfielder Santos Lucas Lima agreed to the conditions of a personal contract with Barcelona, ??which he will move to in January as a free agent.

Nevertheless, Santos' management is not happy that Barcelona has made contact with their player before they had such a right.

According to FIFA rules, a football player who becomes a free agent can enter into negotiations with other clubs only six months before the expiration of the current contract, and in the case of Lima, this period begins only on July 1.
