Clubs to get call-up cash

CLUBS with players on international duty will be paid around 130m GB Pounds in compensation over the next six years by governing bodies Fifa and Uefa.

The ground-breaking agreement was announced in a bid to put an end to long running club v country rows. In return, the G14 group of Europe’s 18 most powerful clubs plans to drop legal disputes with Fifa and Uefa.”Football is reunited thanks to Michel Platini and Uefa,” Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge said.Even former clubs of international players will receive some reward.The money will benefit all teams that a player belonged to during the previous two years.”Clubs who provide Uefa and Fifa with certain amounts of money through these players should get some compensation and share in these profits,” Uefa president Platini explained.BBC SportIn return, the G14 group of Europe’s 18 most powerful clubs plans to drop legal disputes with Fifa and Uefa.”Football is reunited thanks to Michel Platini and Uefa,” Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge said.Even former clubs of international players will receive some reward.The money will benefit all teams that a player belonged to during the previous two years.”Clubs who provide Uefa and Fifa with certain amounts of money through these players should get some compensation and share in these profits,” Uefa president Platini explained.BBC Sport
