Football News: Transfer fees and payments

With regards to payment due to players following a transfer, we have worked on premises that young players can recieve an average between 10-15% of any profit the player's club makes on their transfer fees.
In the UK, very few players tend not to recieve a percentage to their transfer fees, although this is negotiable on a player by player basis, in Spain, Holland and other leading European countries, these fees are more common and typically closer to 15% of fees recieved when they move to higher-profile leagues for big money.
Unfortunately, in many cases when player arrives in Europe from south America, they are exploited by agents and tend not to recieve a percentage of their transfer fees.
British-based players can earn lump sums from transfer through their signing on fees, if a player has four year left on a contract with a signing fee of £250,000 a year, when transfered he will recieve the £1m in full immediately and also additional signing on payments from his new club, they will also be able to negotiate contract settlements, particularly in cases when the club is happy to sell the player.
