A year ago, Allardyce was in the epicenter of the scandal that arose as a result of investigative journalism.
Representatives of the media under the guise of eastern businessmen held a meeting with Sam, during which the then coach of the England team promised to help them bypass the rules of the FA on registering young players, demanding 400 thousand pounds. Also Allardyce allowed himself insults to his predecessor Roy Hodgson, the Football Association of England and even Prince Charles himself.
In a few days after the outbreak of a scandal, the coach was dismissed from the post of coach of the English team, having worked in this position for only 67 days.
As reported by Sky Sports, now Sam is going to sue the Football Association of England, from which the specialist requires compensation for early termination of the contract.
Allardyce's representatives are in talks with the FA for the past year and insist that the dismissal of their client was groundless and illegal.
According to available information, the Football Association of England has already received a letter from lawyers Allardyce. At the moment, the organization refuses to comment on the situation.
