Most of this money is leaving football. ... These payments are imposed by Fifa regulations and are vital for thousands of less privileged clubs who struggle to generate sufficient revenue, and are therefore crucial for developing, training and giving opportunities to young players all over the world.
At Fifa, we are trying to implement some clear and fair rules to the transfer system, including agents regulations, for the sake of transparency, accountability and better redistribution across all levels of the game... Because of that we were sued by some agents, but Fifa will continue to defend its position in court.
I call on governments and lawmakers to join us and play an active role in ensuring the funds generated in transfers are kept within football and are shared with clubs from all around the world, as they are absolutely key for current and future generations of footballers.
