French football club Nantes have started legal action against Cardiff City, asking for the first payment in the £15m deal to buy Emiliano Sala, Sky sources say.

Sky Sports News understands that Cardiff City feel they should wait for the salvage operation and the investigation into the plane crash in the Channel to end before any payments are made.
