So he's not retired then? Maybe he needs too to stop this happening in the future, otherwise all Countries will choose their best players.The player decided that he didn't want to play in this comp a while back - no pressure is being applied to any player
Players should always have the right to choose - the clubs pay their wages and the clubs are the ones that suffer if something happens when they go away.
If someone wants to play international football then no one should stop him and I expect that's what happens - managers putting pressure on players not to go to tournaments ? I don't think that's the case , maybe meaningless friendlies some managers may speak to players carrying an injury or tired etc
But if a player himself doesn't want to go and would prefer to play for the club that pays his wage then he should be allowed to do that without any punishments.
The clubs are the ones that take any hits in regards the players yet they are the ones that pay the players. Club should always come first
I wholeheartedly agree players have a right to choose and none should be forced, but you can't pick and choose which Tournament is OK and which isn't when you're fully fit as that's not fair on your Country either.
