FIFA has mechanisms where, in an international transfer situation, there is payment that filters down to all of the clubs that were involved in that player's development up into a certain point.
I think it's 23, maybe.
I might be wrong on that.
But that was 2018-19.
And they have since...
revised that process for solidarity payments as of mid-2026.
So now we're very modern day.
Since they revised the solidarity process using something called the clearinghouse, which started in 2022, they have almost $1 billion in training awards allocated.
Yes.
Now, $640 million of that has been successfully distributed to the training clubs.
And I take that as that there's a certain percentage of that money that has not been paid because they don't have appropriate documentation or claims made for that.
But if you look at
They had a milestone in July of 2025.
They had $500 million allocated, $300 million distributed to roughly 7,000 clubs, okay, through this solidarity payment mechanism.
And this is UEFA, right?
No, this is FIFA.
There's an average of $43,000 per club.
So again, in July of 2025, they had said $500 million allocated, $300 million distributed to roughly 7,000 clubs.
That is, and the contribution here, just to give people a sense, is up to 5% of a player transfer fee is distributed to clubs that train the player between ages 12 to 23.
OK, so when we talk about how does money flow down to deal with pay to play in every other country in the world?
