Recall last week, Q captain learned from reliable channels, the major clubs have received notice from the Football Association, the issue of repayment of reinforcement adjustment fee will be put on the agenda. This accumulation of more than a billion dollars of huge funds, since 2017 has been idle in the account of the CFA, has now become the clubs eyes "lifesaving straw".
Since last September, Guangzhou, Guoan and other clubs have applied to the Football Association to repay the reinforcement adjustment fee, hoping to ease the increasingly serious financial pressure in recent years. Some clubs have even proposed partial repayment in order to solve the pressing problem.
On March 29 and 31, Captain Q wrote two reports focusing on the dynamics of the club's demand for reinforcement adjustment fees (this article is accompanied by reading recommendations). At that time, the national team was preparing for the key battle of the twelfth round, the club failed to get a clear answer from the FA.
It is reported that since the collection of attraction adjustment fee in 2017, the Football Association has repeatedly moved the idea of using the funds, and discussed at the executive committee meeting. However, at that time, the football association executive committee mostly by the head of the local sports bureau, the bottom line of the policy to adhere to the same, in the meeting to give a resolute veto. As a result, this huge amount of money has been in a state of "sequestration".
In late March this year, the State Administration of Market Supervision conducted an investigation into the FA's fee compliance issues, prompting the FA to clean up some of the unreasonable and illegal fees in its history, including the reinforcement adjustment fee, which has no basis in law and for which the FA was unable to issue an invoice.
The club learned from the relevant staff of the Association will repay the intention of the attraction adjustment fee, but because the Association leadership has not yet all returned to Beijing, so there is no official official statement. It is reported that the Association needs to wait until the epidemic prevention and control situation improves, the staff return to normal work, in order to discuss the relevant issues.
The topic of repayment of reinforcement adjustment fee has received a lot of attention, and the club side expects that the relevant reply will not be too far away.
