ECJ: Contract with juvenile sports talent for participation ...
An agreement under which a sportsman under the age of majority is obliged to share part of his future income once he becomes a professional athlete may be in breach of the Directive on unfair terms in consumer contracts. The European Court of Justice held, that the national court must assess the unfairness of such a term by considering whether a legal clause to that effect is plain and intelligible as regards the financial consequences of the commitment.
