According to lawyers and experts commenting on this case in the Norwegian press, FC Lyn might be fecked. But not because of a claim from Chelsea, but the Norwegian state might claim the money:

- According to Norwegian criminal law, the state can claim the money they received from the Mikel deal.
- The issue here is the 60m NOK that Lyn received, not the total 195m NOK that Chelsea paid.
- Because the settlement between Lyn, Chelsea, United and John Shittu was done after the filing for a court case against Morgan Andersen, Chelsea will not make any claims.
- The settlement was done with the knowledge that the case could be tried in Norwegian court.
