Below is an extract from a news article and I am confused where with texts in bold. My interpretation is that the lawyers have asked someone (perhaps from the authority) to have Djokovic transferred to a place nicer than where he is currently kept. But I cannot understand why it says 'asked he be moved' instead of 'asked him be moved'?
While he awaits a final decision, Djokovic's lawyers have asked he be moved from the immigration detention hotel that has often been criticised by refugees for its poor conditions where he is currently being held, to "a more suitable place of detention" that would allow him to train ahead of the Australian Open.
