i'm neil young looking for the 2nd season. of slow back environment it's still about society it's still about us but all the planets on the brink we spoke to several leading experts in the field. look up just a couple of real sense. this is probably the biggest crisis. since world war 2. the death toll from the fires come to rise at the rapid chalk rises look like bottles

of cold democrats trying to work in concert tonight. please cover your nose down into the ground and so. the coronavirus is changing the world as we know it but how is it changing football people believe those kind of i'm prepared to take this short there's no question that this will have long lasting consequences not just this year and next year how is it affecting cops players' contracts and wages how's it affecting the transfer market home only to. those who do good times will we still see $200000000.00 euro block plus the transfers or is this the beginning of something new it's still hard to imagine but if we see football being played at all it will be like this football without fence that's the new normal and will be for the foreseeable future but why is corona such

a big problem for football clubs and their business models why are they suddenly struggling to survive if they're not allowed to play it has to do with affect how football clubs make money these days for example europe's top 5 leagues have 3 main sources of income match day revenue things like tickets food and drinks makes up to 16 percent on average 40 percent is commercial revenue sponsoring the yields and so on and the highest proportion is broadcasting deals with 44 percent t.v. money so $2.00 of these men share revenue and t.v. money are gone if there are no games and for smaller teams debt broadcast money even more important. here is where i am you listen. to the radio. broadcasters have. informed the league that they would not take until football returns to the village this year is it a huge structural impact then we'll have

a domino effect from big clubs from clubs to players and from players though and that's why europe's top leagues are so desperate to finish the season. ok besides belgium the netherlands affronts but the authorities have to cancel the season's already p.s.g. for example top of the table champions again but everyone else is eager to resume play because that's the only way to get your hands on that t.v. money and that pretty much keeps the clubs alive. do you. not. notice the. economic model of many clubs is very challenged at the moment we also need to we probably will have a significant amount of time a year or 2 years in which he broadcasting will look different sponsors may be able to pay less because of the general economic downturn the clubs are not reliant on media rights only they can also make money by selling players that's what most of

them actually do think of for example they have grown for more than 600000000 euros and transfer fees in the last 5 years it's a multi-million dollar business the transfer market has been skyrocketing for years between 2012 and 29000 the number of transfers went up every year and transfer fees almost tripled the club spent more money than ever on transfers and those transfer fees the whole transfer market is even more important for many clubs outside of europe's top leagues just think of all the players from south america coming to europe every year for those clubs selling their best players to the big leagues in europe that's their business model and that is under threat. clubs as. soon as they are. asked to be easy to transfer. the clubs mostly keep going you. know when the men from

suits leave the. grounds 1st and some of the business even call it the solidarity mechanism. like the general manager. we get money from the big leagues and get money from us when the chain breaks it reaches every corner of the globe. i want to hear from the other side i have an appointment with a player agent usually they don't talk openly to the media we've got exclusive access. john is an agent from germany he's got several players under contract. in the premier league. and the bundesliga and the turkish super league are his players prepared to take wage cuts. because.

of. a crisis affecting his business as a player agent. 500 a moment on. the. ledge. and the players will lose value but how much recent analysis by the international center for sports studies shows the corner crisis has heavily affected players estimated transfer value. like olympic. and even giants like brian munich and real madrid are affected their squad lose up to 30 percent of. the whole football industry that means an estimated drop of 10000000000 euros.

really. you know. those. who are left. out of this. and here's an interesting fact younger players who have a lot of potential aren't affected the same way as older ones take leo messi for example he is 32 years old almost 33 his contract runs out in 2021 messi is now worth less than jade and son show was 12 years younger than him since the corner virus pandemic hit europe both had to accept wage cuts and both lost value messi for estimated transfer value dropped by 20 percent some shows just 10. so will we still see 200000000 euro blockbuster transfers in the future.

oh yes most doing you know. your name or want. to 20. on the. list and. it's a need you. think you can be for that will make. the company itself. but the ember pierce mess is and i'm not a part of that they still make a lot of money because they're the best in the game but what about millions of other players around the world and especially the ones with contracts running out most of them aren't very modest wages and have very short contracts so course there's a lot of economic pressure on these players as well after the season when many

contracts run out we'll see more players probably free looking for continued employment than ever be. for those extensions that normally would have already happened now probably happening later but they're not happening at all so what does all this mean for future transfers will we see more and more players and employ more known deals maybe a trend we've seen for years now or spoke to you off of play and given the from the youth ranks and you get that players see you want to return to the interesting question is how would football how will collapse just you and me lots of little grunts and the who. and this crisis over the real let's. pull the. very elite. is this the new world of football the rich getting richer and exploiting the smaller crops or struggling to survive the elite clubs where they finally start

a league of their own from shut down straight into the european super league or do we need a more radical solution a salary cap maybe a what if we abolish the transfer market altogether she says. and does not exist. because then has published a study on this and he's not the only one who is critical of the current transfer system actually left pro the players union lobbied against transfer fees until he struck a man and they made an agreement interesting question actually what would a football world look like without a transfer market doesn't believe in the original country. no budget gaps in one year almost 50000000 euros on and on. through players who football will gain a lot of money my boss instances and in the bonus league it's estimated to be more

than $200000000.00 euros per season that's a crazy amount of money. on the other hand though abolishing the transfer market would mean no more gossip and smaller teams would receive transfer fees for their youth academy players the players they have invested in them wouldn't give us an issue. trying to. get sufficient in fines all the deep can also be kings i. should be those looking one tough place to go and off spending shooting for sped up we should suddenly switch off switch to the symbolism but i can also get seen on them but i see so long if i know you're going to. cynthia decide to discuss that so where does football go from here we come out of this with a better healthier more equal game one thing's for sure football needs to change the question how we need to see it as a chance to probably also change direction in some areas there's going to be

a need for us is more constant in the future c.v. no more need. more time she's not a. symptom of. been screwed pushed us and. that's the beauty. of the folks in the end of my. resume gruber. market. in the press there is no make over money if it means that it will have a serious a meaningful reform regarding the agency d.v.d. regarding the transfer of loads and if we bring order into what seems to be a pretty chaotic punisher landscape if this is what we're talking about a totally different google then i'm going to walk.
