What does the visa-free football transfer mean?

The source of the word visa-free for football transfer is somewhat related to the "Boseman Act". Simply put, after the expiration of the contract with the club, the football player has the right to play football in any country in the EU without paying any transfer fee.

for example.

Arnold's contract with Liverpool expires on June 30, 2025. After the contract expires, he can negotiate with the new club Real Madrid. Real Madrid does not need to pay the transfer fee to the Reds. Arnold will come to Real Madrid to play as a free agent.

Generally speaking, according to the Boseman Act, players under the age of 28 will be protected within three years from the day of signing the contract, and may accept bids from other clubs at any time in the next two years. Once he agrees to join the new team, the new team will pay a salary equivalent to his remaining contract as compensation.

If you are a player over 28 years old, there will be a regulation at this time, that is, the last half year is the contract ending stage. As long as any club can give a contract satisfactory to the player, the player will be able to transfer to the new club freely after the last half year of the contract, and the new club does not have to pay any fees to the original club.

This is also why many teams negotiate 1-2 years in advance for their own players to renew their dates, in order to prevent players from being in the team and being in Cao's camp. If the player is leaving and negotiates with other teams, and then they will leave with free transfers and they will not get any transfer fees at all, and there will be a huge loss. The interests of

players are protected.

But at the same time, this may also bring some problems, that is, the club's salary structure may be damaged. Some players may speak loudly, and if they are excellent, they will ask the club to pay themselves a high salary.

If you don't give it, you will leave, which is a bit "threatening" nature. In order to retain their core players, the club is afraid that the team's lineup combat effectiveness will be affected after leaving, so sometimes it seems to be unconfidence and will agree to the players' requirements, resulting in an increase in salary structure.

The increase has led to other players in the team's jealousy when they see it, and they will also express their desire to increase their salary in the future.

When the salary structure increases, the cost increases, and the team's income declines, the team will experience operational problems, resulting in the risk of bankruptcy. The introduction of the

Boseman Act has affected the operational changes of many European teams, and many teams have to consider the risks involved to prevent the risks brought by players leaving.

With the development of football, people can also find that when watching football, the practice of sign-free is becoming more and more frequent. Many teams and players will seek sign-free strategies to let the stars come to their teams.

Like Real Madrid's Mbappe, he came with sign-in without a sign-in.

is visa-free because it is also to save a transfer fee. Transfer fees + player salary and signature fees will be invested in, and the financial pressure will be very high. But if there is no transfer fee, then you can operate well to control the team's costs and adjust your salary structure every year.

In addition, regarding sign-free, we need to pay attention to it. It is not necessarily because the player has poor abilities. The original club did not want to sign with him, so he would become a free agent. Some of them have conflicts, players are unwilling to stay in the team, and the club provides a new contract and does not want to renew the contract, and wants to go to other teams after the contract is over.

So some stars will be free to sign in to other teams.

The specific situation depends on the situation between the team and the players before it can be decided. Anyway, the team and the players have the right to choose, and whether to renew the contract can be negotiated at that time.

If the negotiations are concluded, they will stay. If the negotiations are not concluded, they will be together and parting. The two parties will not affect each other and everything will be done according to the contract.
