message: Neymar is for some reason removed from the list. Why?
:The reason I removed Neymar is because, according to Barcelona, the actual transfer fee paid to Santos was €17m. The rest was money paid to Neymar's parents, as reported by Sky Sports, The Independent, The Guardian, and BBC. I would imagine a lot of the money in big transfers goes to agents/assorted third parties, but there's no way of definitely knowing. The Neymar transfer was unusual in the transparency shown.

message: There doesn't seem to be anything on where transfer fees sit legally. By that I mean whatis written in a contract so that a club can demand compensation for rescinding it? As far as I am aware a player can freely walk away and be a plumbe rif he wanted (or at least he could in the days before bosman). IS a contract so "fixed" that both parties have to agree to rescind it and the only way a club would is if they are financially compensated. The legal abiguity of transfer fees is confusing and it would be nice to get a proper explaination especially is we have them for managers now as well. cheers  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.204.234.96 (talk) 02:08, 26 January 2012 (UTC)

If transfers in some sport is a big thing then it should have it's own article if it's not then the people who are interested in it probably already know how it  works and those who are not probably doesn't need to know.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by William Tölöberg (talk • contribs) 14:53, 3 July 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: I've changed the article back to pounds for two reason. Firstly the World football transfer record article orders moves by pounds and for consistency it is necessary to keep all related articles in the same currency. Secondly the Euro remains a relatively new currency and so there are no accurate euro values for transfers pre-1999. This conflicts with my above point that consistency is needed throughout transfer record related articles --Daviessimo (talk) 07:40, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think the use of pounds makes sense at all. If we look at the five highest transfers on the list, and 9 of the fifteen listed, all were conducted fully in Euro, pounds don't come into. Clearly, in these transfers, the player's value was decided based on the Euro valuation, and using the Euro here more accurately reflects the substance of the transaction.
(P.S) I'm aware that the Euro only came into circulation in 2002, but the exchange rates between Eurozone countries was fixed in 1999, meaning that the Euro is accurate as it remained stable in relation to the currencies of the clubs involved.Bh02306069 (talk) 17:20, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: The need for a seperate article; naming

message: * I have made some edits to the table that I'd like to discuss. The table is for the "Top 15 transfer fees paid"... So my perspective is that if there are another 3 players transferred for £40m (adjusted for inflation) this window, but it will still only be the 10th highest transfer fee paid, thus making the next highest the 11th highest fee paid, and so on. It's not like a race where if there is a dead heat for second, then the next person over the line is fourth. I hope this is making sence... I think it is good having it this way as it shows 15 unique values that make the "top 15 transfer fees paid", which to my understanding is the idea of the table.
* I added in Rio Ferdinand and Juan Sebastián Verón as their fee adjusted for inflation is £35m - I read the talk page and but I'm still not entirely sure why they were removed.
* Finally, references are needed for the fees attributed to Ronaldo and Andriy Shevchenko. 
:For Ronaldo, the fee published in Ronaldo#2002–2006: Real Madrid is €46m (also unsourced), yet the fee here is £46m/€58m - transfermarkt.co.uk quotes £39.6m. 
:For Shevchenko, I've only ever seen £30.8m quoted as the fee, which is in line with the sourced fee on Andriy Shevchenko#Chelsea, however transfermarkt.co.uk claims £40.48m.
Any constructive input would be appreciated - I'd also appreciate not flat out deleting my work without first having a chat about it. I've got no problems if people want to edit it though as I took an educated guess at Robinho and Dimitar Berbatov being #14 and #15 respectively.
Cheers :) - Ck786 (talk) 02:24, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Righto. A week has passed with no objections to the above. I have done my own research on Ronaldo and Andriy Shevchenko's transfers. Italian media outlet reported the Ronaldo transfer as €45m - with €35m paid up front and another €10m payable in December 2002 if Inter didn't select a Madrid player to be included in the deal. This see's Ronaldo drop to 9th on the list. As for Shevchenko, I just used the sourced figure from his article, which references an A.C. Milan financial report. Thus Shevchenko drops to 14th on the adjusted list. Berbatov drops off, because Shevchenko's fee is no longer the same as Christian Vieri's (or anyone else for that matter). So the table is complete with 15 unique record transfer fees as of this edit. Ck786 (talk) 01:05, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: One final change - had to re-add in Berbatov as I missed that both Rui Costa and Javier Pastore are on £37m (adjusted), thus for there to be 15 unique transfer fees, Berbatov needed to go in at #15 with Costa and Pastore on equal 11th and the troupe on £35m, all equal 12th.

message: In this article it's said nothing about the following: I know that if a player has been signed mid-season and he's played in the Champions League for his old club, he can't play for his new in the tournament until the end of the season. I don't know since when is it so. Also I see no answer if a player has played for his old team in the Europa League if he can play for his new tam in the Champions league, which is the question that troubles me.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.72.183.69 (talk) 11:02, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: That article, created as an educational student assignment, is essentially a fork of the history, with a few instances of the word globalization thrown in. There is no need for this to exist as a separate article. Sure, transfers are affected by globalization - so is everything else, pretty much, and the article doesn't make a good case that globalization of transfers is a notable topic in itself. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:35, 27 December 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Merge from [[Globalization of the football transfer market]] 

message: For best example of what needs to happen, see: Trade (sports) which needs a partner page Transfer (sports) separated by their concepts. These then need to link direct down to Transfer (association football), Transfer market, Transfer window and similar. I suspect that there is a lot of duplication across the articles and / or cross referencing. Koncorde (talk) 11:01, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
thread_title: Additional ISuggestion

message: Text of this article says "the transfer had in fact cost them a total of €57.1 million (£48.6M)", but the reference it cites says "Josep Maria Bartomeu, called a news conference to reveal the true cost of signing Neymar was actually £71.5m. I'll investigate a bit more before changing it, but this looks like figures getting muddled. Dhalamh (talk) 21:08, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
