Answer givern by Mrs Diamantopoulou on behalf of the Commission

(18 June 2001)

The Commission maintains its position, as set out in its answer to the Honourable Member(cid:146)s Written
Question E-3535/00, that Community law provisions on free movement of workers apply to all Union
citizens who have reached the minimum age fixed by the host Member State for access to its labour
market, including sports activities.

This was reflected in the outcome of the discussions between the Commission and International Federation
of Football Associations/Union of European Football Associations (FIFA/UEFA) where it was stated that
international transfers of players aged under 18 will be allowed subject to certain conditions aimed at
ensuring their protection. It should be recalled that FIFA/UEFA were, at first, in favour of prohibiting such
transfers.

The difference in the treatment of
football players according to their age as regards payment of
compensation for their training costs is a different matter linked to the estimated duration of effective
training.
