The Arbitrator for Sport has informed Cesena that they must pay Tokyo FC €1.6 million for the 2010 transfer of Japanese defender Yuto Nagatomo.

The two clubs met in Switzerland to resolve the dispute regarding missing historical missing transfer fees.

According to the Corriere di Romagna, Cesena’s representatives had requested in the court based in the Swiss city of Lucerne that they be able to pay the overdue money in two instalments.

Nagatomo originally signed Cavallucci Marini on loan from Tokyo before making the deal permanent before moving him onto his current club Inter.

FIFA’s disciplinary commission will discuss the Serie A side’s request in the coming months but it seems likely that they may have to pay all the money in one go as Tokyo are not keen on the idea of an instalments plan.

As Cesena’s chances of winning in the legal system appear slim, it has been reported that president Giorgio Lugaresi will simply now decide when to pay the money and end the protected dispute with the Japanese club.

Nagatomo has made four appearances for Inter during the 2014-15 Serie A season.
