Record signing for Cardiff City, vanishes together with plane
- Thread starter Pitbull
- Start date
This may very well be the first time this has ever happened, so I doubt that clause would be written in.
Transfer fees themselves are not always a lump sum paid up front. The deal is said to be £15m but that may only be a percentage up front and then various clauses that realise the fill value of the transfer. £10m now, £2m if he scores 'X' amount of goals, another £2m if the club doesn't get relegated, £1m if he plays in 'X' amount of games next season.

Nowadays you go through a medical exam before any deal is signed.
You agree to sell a player to me. I fly said player in to my medical facility or a medical facility of my choice and have him evaluated by my own doctors and physios or doctors/physios I trust. If there are no flags a deal is made. If stress fractures or strains show up I can then pull out of the deal or renegotiate the fee. You also have the option to pull out if I say I'm not paying what you want for a player that may not be 100%
That's where the performance and appearance clauses come in. If the doctors say he is 100% but then ruptures a ligament in his first match, he likely won't reach the performance/appearance clauses and I end up not paying you the full price. Both clubs are somewhat ''protected''. You get something for the player and I don't pay the full amount because he's crocked.
