Not surprised but UGH!!!
Anyone know what is going on with the portion of transfer fees set aside for youth development clubs when the transfer involves US players? There was a fight with Yedlin's fee to Newcastle but I haven't been keeping up on it. Would NYCFC get a portion of future transfer fees?

good for him, this is a great opportunity for him and i hope this opens a door for american youth players in the future as well to get the kind of training they need to bring the national team to the next level.... unless he gets a german passport after a few years and completely deads us.
That's kind of my point - Claudio would not have done anything that would make his son more expensive to a European academy, so no pressure at all to sign a homegrown contract.This was happening for a while and just emphasizes NYCFC needs the infrastructure to get these players minutes, especially on the first team.

It was literally in Claudio's family best interests to fail at his efforts to help the team's best interests (i.e. signs his son to a pro contact).
US Department of Labor?Yes. But at the very least, MLS, USSF, US Department of Labor, etc. need to allow training compensation benefits that may be translated into GAM.
US Department of Labor?
Technically, they are minors. I'm not one of the lawyers on the Forums. So, I can't tell you why there is a problem, but that's what USSF always says regarding training compensation.
Wut??? What the hell kind of contract have all of the P40, GenerationAdidas, and now HG players been signing if not a pro contract?Garber has said that they can’t sign anyone under 18 to a “professional contract” due to US labor laws but I don’t believe that’s in the same boat as enforcing the FIFA statute for solidarity payments to youth clubs. From what I’ve read that’s just down to all of the parties involved not having worked out a system for handling it.

You gotta mean the age of 16 by that, right?Wut??? What the hell kind of contract have all of the P40, GenerationAdidas, and now HG players been signing if not a pro contract?
And if they’re referring to youth clubs, well, everybody signs on a dotted line before joining and stepping on the field, whether there’s payment from club to player or not, otherwise there’s all kinds of liability on the health/safety side for the club.
Even players under 16 have been signed to Pro contracts with MLS.You gotta mean the age of 16 by that, right?
Really? I knew there were some 16 year olds that have been signed, but wasn't sure and just assumed there hadn't been any younger.Even players under 16 have been signed to Pro contracts with MLS.
