The guideline of attraction and adjustment fee of our professional league has been controversial, and now there is an urgent need for a final review and adjustment. The huge amount of reinforcement adjustment fee previously paid by the clubs is also facing the ultimate review, whether it is to be abolished or continued, and whether the money previously received is really used for reasonable and legitimate purposes, or whether it is to be returned to the clubs ultimately, all these are expected to be answered in the future.
The reason the NFF had to respond to this is because a club that had paid the attraction conditioning fee is now applying to recover the fee. In addition to the reasons why other clubs have not paid the fee, the club also cited the plight of survival, after all, the Chinese Super League clubs are now generally facing an operational crisis. Since the National Football Association to collect the fee name is not justified, claimed to be used for youth training but can not be accounted for, long-term deposited in the bank, collected but also can not issue invoices, and even there are clubs have not been paid, so if you can recycle the money for the club's operations, naturally, it is a reasonable demand.
It is understood that the leadership of the Football Association has instructed the relevant departments to discuss the matter and try to give a solution. If the refund is really made, it is obvious that it will not be made to only one family.
Reinforcement transfer fee first began in 2017, the National Football Association in the summer of 2017 on the registration of the transfer period to collect reinforcement transfer fee related to the work of the implementation of the views: clubs such as reinforcement expenses beyond the reasonable range, in the Chinese Football Association registration for the registration of the player transfer, should be supplied with the club's own account remittance to the National Football Development Foundation proof (marking the name of the club), if the procedures are complete, the National Football Association registration If the formalities are complete, the registration office of the National Football Association will handle the player's registration and transfer formalities for the club.
In February 2018, the National Football Association (NFA) issued supplementary rules on the implementation of the work related to the collection of the reinforcement adjustment fee, which emphasized that: in the process of transferring players, the clubs have the reality and behavior of evading the payment of the reinforcement adjustment fee, and after the verification of the NFA, the clubs involved will be given the punishment of deducting the league points of the 2018 season and should make up for the payment of the reinforcement adjustment fee, and at the same time, the NFA will suspend the qualification of the player until the the club's retroactive payment is completed. The rules also give clear instructions on the standard of deduction, up to 15 league points. That is to say, the attitude of the Football Association at the moment has been very strong, to avoid paying the conditioning fee, the player suspended from the qualification, the team deducted league points.
Since 2018, the NFCA has made public several times that the conditioning fee has been turned in.
On February 22, 2019 the National Football Association (NFA) issued a notice on the continued implementation of the attraction adjustment fee policy for the 2019 season in the Chinese Super League and the Chinese First League.
On December 31, 2019 the National Football Association released the National Football Association on the 2020 season professional league guidelines adjustment of the tell, which stipulates that "domestic players and foreign players transfer attraction conditioning fee standards remain unchanged, the conditioning fee levy from the full amount charged to the difference in the collection (i.e., only on the transfer fee exceeds the standard portion of the levy of conditioning tax) ".
The last documented public announcement by the NFF regarding the attraction conditioning fee was made on 3/19/2019. In other words, there has been no further public announcements since the 2019 summer window. By the winter window of 2021, the most recent payment of the Citation Adjustment Fee was made by Shamrock FC for Quintero.
Media statistics, coupled with 2018, the cumulative transfer of eight foreign aid involved in the payment of the transfer fee, respectively, Paulinho, Talisker (Guangzhou Evergrande Taobao), Hamsik, Carrasco (Dalian party), Ba Kambu, Bieira (Beijing CUH Guoan), Fellaini (Shandong Luneng Taishan) and Modesto (Tianjin Quanjian), the above players transferred to pay the total amount of the transfer fee is about more than one billion yuan. Together with Jintero, Guoan, Evergrande, Dalian people, Luneng, Quanjian, Shenzhen football, have paid this money.
But the fee program, the Citation Adjustment Fee, has been controversial since its inception.
First of all, the Football Association was planning to incorporate the funds into the National Football Development Foundation for the construction of soccer infrastructure, youth soccer development, etc. However, according to the relevant management regulations of associations and foundations, this conditioning fee cannot be counted as the donation cost of a certain organization, which has violated a number of management regulations of association management fees, and some financial rules and guidelines are even difficult to overcome. Specifically, it is impossible to issue invoices to the clubs at the time of collection, and the money collected cannot be utilized as intended because of the various regulations governing the management of fees by associations.
Secondly, Shanghai Seaport's failure to hand over the conditioning fee for Arnautovic has also been widely disputed.
Shanghai International Port (Group) released the annual report for the year 2020, section XI of the financial report of the other payables column shows that Shanghai SIPG Club (now Shanghai Seaport) still has the amount of 149.53 million yuan in the introduction of foreign aid Arnaud when the conditioning fee has not been paid to the NFC. Shandong, which is also a state-owned enterprise, paid the conditioning fee to Fellaini, but the Harbour Club has not submitted it, even though Arnautovic has already moved away in the summer window of 2021, which makes the existence of this guideline, and the charging of this fee, highly controversial.
Earlier, the media reported, "According to the insiders of the Football Association, Chen Xuyuan, who is in charge of the financial power, has his own opinion on the policy of adjusting fees for reinforcements left by the previous term - since the Chinese Super League Company and the National Football Association can't issue invoices to the clubs, the clubs shouldn't continue to be charged for the fees. This is why Arnau's conditioning fee has only existed on the books for a year and has been delayed." If the report is true, it means that Chen Xuyuan, the president of the NFF, also recognizes the problem of the reinforcement adjustment fee, so this time, when a Chinese Super League club claims the adjustment fee that was previously submitted, it is the best opportunity to adjust this policy.
