I believe I saw in one of the stories that this may have violated Cudicini's contract.

Most European footballers don't have such clauses in their contracts. For instance Frings talks in magazine interviews about relaxing after games by riding his motorcycle (okay, that's Germany not England, but I can't remember any specific English examples this minute). I also think there was a club whose sponsors gave the players free motorbikes, like Audi giving Barca players free cars, but I can't remember which team. ...Still stupid though, even if not contractually so.
