[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are talking.ablut when Americans transfer abroad AS YOUTH PLAYRTS.  Man, you did all that homework trying to learn about free transfers for nothing.  Too bad...[/quote]

So European clubs take free transfer Americans who aren't good just because they're free
But the Europeans who are free transfer are good?

Like was said in a PP.  Before USSF and MLS agreed to FIFA rules on transfer of players, meaning getting paid for them and their training, European clubs were taking youth players from.the us for FREE because they couldn't get youth players completely free in their own countries and from other countries because they all wanted money, especially training compensation. That has now stopped.  Once a player is 18 and they are out of contract can they move for free, of course.  That is obvious. What the European clubs were trying to do was take the best US talent and lock them up contractually early as youth players so they could get paid from the USSFs ignorance and stupidity about transfer rules. This is exactly.why the USSF agreed to the FIFA rules in 2022 because they lost so much money on the sale of pulisic, McKinnie, reyna etc. US clubs didn't get a.dime for those sales and that was a shame but fair play to the German clubs that locked them up unencumbered.

European players who are transferring for free also carry training compensation fees which aren't reflected publicly.  And those fees are significant coming from European pro academiss.  20k-60k per year a kid was in the academy depending on the grade of the academy.  Remember USSF was not demanding training comp or solidarity payments for anyone untill three years ago. This was a game changer for overseas clubs because the players were Completely free from the us before then.  Why they were getting a lot of opportunities at younger ages.

Take Weston Mckinnie for instance.  If an equivalent number 6 from.say SC Freiburg who spent 4 years in the academy, the same.amount of time.Mckinnie spent in FC Dallas, the actual transfer would be free for both.  But training comp of close to six figures would.be owed for the player from.sc Freiburg.who would you take if the skills were close.  That is the argument.  At youth ages.[/quote]
