What’s the real value of football contracts today?
Clubs treat players as assets, relying on contracts to avoid losing them for free and to monetize on their value. Unilateral contract termination is rare because:
➡ Uncertainty on consequences
➡ Players are cautious
➡ Gentlemen’s agreements between clubs
💡 Possible solution: transfer fees based on objective criteria like age, contract length & salary.
💪 Possible result? More player mobility & power shifting from clubs to players.
Insights by our Managing Partner @sebastien.sportslawyer in @lesoirbe & @sudpress.
