UEFA Looking To Limit Transfer Spending
According to Stephen Crawford at Goal.com, UEFA is looking to limit the amount of money spent on transfers by clubs. An official statement in UEFAdirect said,
“The aim is for all clubs to be able to live on the income they generate … A series of incentives and disciplinary action will be examined at the next executive committee meeting.”
“The key principle on the road towards a fairer and more transparent game is that football should reward those clubs living within their means. This means that clubs shall need to reduce their spending.”
“To be viable, salaries and transfers should be proportionate to the generated income. Clubs should invest in their youth sectors, and use their homegrown talent to reinforce their squads.”
