Feels like a touch of the smoke and mirrors from Tagg perhaps in his quote?
I could be wrong, but my understanding of the FIFA regulations covering solidarity payments is that they apply to "cross boarder" transfers only. If that is the case then we are not entitled to anything from Villa. Hope I am wrong herePlus the 3.5% from Villa, presumably!
I think you could be right. Google(!) suggests it only applies for transfers between different associations.I could be wrong, but my understanding of the FIFA regulations covering solidarity payments is that they apply to "cross boarder" transfers only.

Wheeler dealers - so to speakWe should do what Brentford do but on a cheaper scale....buy some of the best young talent in non league and sell them on for a big profit.

Thanks Matt that was my understanding. Fingers crossed there is something other than EPPP that apples here.
Unfortunately the document quoted on the Watkins thread does state in the scope that it covers the "transfer between clubs belonging to different associations". It does though go on to say in 1.2 that national regulations "should also provide for a system to reward clubs investing in the training and education of young players" so let's hope that there's an equivalent FA documents, although given the power of the Premier League, I don't hold out much hope!
I think it's the same document. The key section is the scope on page 7. Although this is on the FA website, they're not FA regulations.Page 62 and 128. If I read correctly means there is a solidarity payment.
Guys. Previous posts 4915 to 4917 under Ollie Watkins thread appear to indicate a solidarity payment IS due.I think it's the same document. The key section is the scope on page 7. Although this is on the FA website, they're not FA regulations.
