    There's the no-biting stipulation that Barcelona inserted into Luis Suarez’s contract. Or Ronaldinho’s request for a clause allowing him two nights out a week when he joined Flamengo. Or the strange story of Mario Balotelli having a “good conduct” clause at Liverpool that entitled him to a £1 million bonus if he avoided getting three red cards in one season.
    A video on 'no space travel' & other football contract clauses.

    • @ralfrudi3963
      @ralfrudi3963 4 года назад +16

      Yeah I dont belive that. Simply because I have never heard about a player who wanted to move but didnt because his agent asked for too much money so he had to stay.
      Sure an agent might influence a player and try to talk him into joining a specific club and I am sure there are shady individuals who take advantage of their players especially those from poor regions who they sign when they are still super young.
      But if we are talking about "super agents" like Raiola who usually singns well known players and up and coming worldstars I just dont think what you said applies. Players can choose their agents and especially the more experienced players would have no reason to flock to someone like Raiola if he would impact them in any negative way. Players love him because he gets them the best possible contracts.
      The story of the evil agent who dictates where the player can and can not move to is just that, a story. And it is also a role he is very willing to play just so fans can be upset about the all powerful, evil agent while the poor and helpless player can keep his babyface while squeezing every last penny out of his club. Judging by comments like this it seems to work really really well. In reality this is ofcourse complete bs and Raiola is the players best friend and does everything they want him to. Or how do you explain that well established players keep signing him as an agent?
      Just take the recent Haaland transfer. He too had Raiola as his agent and dozens of clubs wanted to sign him. Where did he end up? At Dortmund. Do you really think he went there because the club paid Raiola more money than United or Juventus would(both wanted to sign Haaland)? Ofcourse not. Haaland wanted to sign for a club like Dortmund, so Raiola made it possible for him. Another player might want to move to the highest bidding club, so he does that too. You can be assured that if a transfer a player really wanted didnt work out because the agent wanted too much money the player will have another agent in no time. The story about the evil super agent is just so much bs.

    Schwarz is actually held in extremely high regard in Sweden. He played in the Premier League, La Liga, and Serie A, and was an integral part of the national team who won bronze in '94 World Cup. He was really tough (he once played with a broken leg) and is nicknamed "God". Another quite amusing trivia is that he was booked in his first-ever senior game, for fouling Maradona. He also runs a football school in Ghana.

    I've always loved this space story with Schwarz, as a Sunderland fan it was typical of the weird transfers we got up to around then. David Bellion, Carsten Fredgaard
    , Nicolas Medina, Thomas Helmer, Baki Mercimek
    and Milton Nunes all bought but non-explained how they came about.

    This happens a lot in US sports. Especially after certain incidents. The usual no extreme sports clause, but some contracts have no motorcycle/moped riding.

    The funniest clauses I have heard of was at Wimbledon where Sam Hamman put in a clause that said, if the team lost by a certain amount of goals the players had to attend the opera. In the managers contract there was a clause, that the chairman could get him to eat sheep testicles.

    It's disgusting that players get paid to play for the national side, that little story about Vardy and the £100,000 made me want to vomit! Years ago it was an honour and a privilege to play for your country, the highest point in a player's career. I grew up watching men who sweated blood for their country and now we just have a bunch of overpaid brats more interested in their own egos and what playing for their country can do for their club careers. So glad I tuned out of national games years ago.
