So true, Leganes were relegated. Martin Braithwaite played well but Barcelona never used him much. So heart breaking and cruel thing to do by Barcelona.
@@shaikaftab1199 Why's everyone's anger so one-sidedly directed towards barca??...The blame also has to fall on the player....but of course its barcelona every player blah blah blah...he knew what he was getting into, either have a stressful season fighting off relegation or sign a guaranteed 4 year job security contract with an increased salary at one of the biggest clubs in world football...
Dehaze Tluanga because its a buy out clause, if you pay the buy out clause you have no way to contest it as player or team... that's why the rule is unfair and barca abused it.
@@DayzAhat that's not right... the player has to agree, it's the player the one with a choice. But you can't expect a player to refuse to play for barcelona or real madrid. In the spanish law every worker has the right to buy their own contracs that's the reason why this release clauses exist. Leganes example is super sad because the captain went viral on spanish internet for his passion, their fighting spirit and sadness (he cried during the post match interview...)
@@lunarisita26 well I was mostly talking about the context for a team, as a player you really don't have much choice also, a club like barca come calling with a boosted contract how the hell do you say no?
Removing the buy out clause as suggested is a good idea, as would creating a time deadline to do this which would give some more bargaining power to the club likely to get pillaged by a bigger club. As it favours the top 2 so much, I can't see La Liga ever getting rid of the rule unfortunately
Players and clubs agree the buy out clauses price I understand the reason and the concept of it and it favours rich clubs without this we wouldn't have neymar in psg
They can remove the option to pay the release clause with this rule ONLY. And keep release clause only for transfer Windows so teams can find a replacment
An absolutely insane rule in a real ease clause league. The smaller league clubs need to press hard and make la liga change the rule. Something like only applying to goalkeepers, who really are the only essential position in the field. Every other position can be replaced by a player somewhere else on the field
@@nightnomad635 oh get real. barcelona have always been left out of any real legislation because of catalan politics. Madrid have always had control over the entirety of La Liga's policies.
This is how I tend to pronounce it. Hear it pronounced that way fairly often. First time in my life I've ever actually thought to look it up and apparently it is wrong! lmao.
I get it, especially when you lose your 2 main goalkeepers to long term injury and or your a smaller team with a small squad......but it also seems like a way to screw young players out of a opportunity. There was a time that a pile up of injuries would of been the best opportunity for younger players to emerge.....
@@alohatigers1199 a top challenging team yes, I agree but for other teams, I would rather see a young prospect get a chance over a last minute player who more or less never makes a lasting impact..
No that doesn't help young players in any way. Teams can only register upto 25 players and so teams already register the young players who'll get first team match time that season, before the season starts.
This rule should be in a way that they can sign players in the emergency but outside of Spanish football. In that way, a different league team can negotiate the price unless there is a buyout rule there too and protects smaller teams being caught off guard like Leganes
@@marcojimenez9327 Yes this is the best case scenario. But Spanish FA wants this system to go on. So they need to make changes to protect their own teams first
This is actually shocking. Hadnt heard of this story before but the amount of protection big clubs get from their leagues is staggering. Similar to how La Liga backed up Barca in determining Messi's recent situation
Step 1: Buy cheap 3rd goalkeeper in the summer Step 2: Hire some local fixers to help him "acquire" an injury that will rule him out for 5+ months right after the January window closes Step 3: Buy one of your direct contenders' star striker by activating his release clause Step 4: ??? Step 5: Profit FYI, I'm available in case any Spanish club is looking for a sporting director. I've been playing FM since 2005 and got arrested twice for public exposure in Magaluf so I tick both the necessary experience and language skills boxes. HMU.
TC 11 All clubs have to register their players for the upcoming season during the summer and winter transfer market period. Only players who are registered beforehand can play during the season (except for youth players). But there is only a set number of registration places that each club can use (23 I think). Which means if you have 30 senior players, you will have to choose which 23 players you want to choose for the coming season. The unregistered players cannot play in the competition. So when Laliga player gets long term injury, the club can unregister that injured player and instead buy a new player who can take his place in the registration slot...
The issue goes well beyond Tebas. La Liga's problem is that for too long both the RFEF and La Liga have bent over backwards to appease the two super-clubs. The result is two of the world's richest and most famous clubs calling Spain home, but at the cost of having an actually competitive league. Having more equitable sharing of income or having restrictions on player spending would help, but by now the super-clubs have become so entrenched and have so much political power that it's difficult to imagine anything's going to change.
@@Christopher_TG lol it's more like Tebas wanted to market the league based on the two heavyweights and especially Messi Vs Ronaldo since that was a thing. And that was his biggest mistake.
@@Castiel_01x I would argue that given how much the league has favored those two for decades, long before Tebas ever came around, Tebas really had no option but to market the league like that. Honestly, how else would you market it? Nobody's gonna watch La Liga for Eibar and Celta.
The emergency transfer rule should be 6-month loans only if the player they want is from the top two Spanish divisions and the player comes back to their parent club when the injured player is cleared to train again.
TIFO always amazes with their overall presentation. Content is solid and delivered well. I salute the creator and editors who make these fantastic videos.
Are release clauses not a legal necessity in the Basque Country? Unai Simon signed an extension which had removed his release clause, and so had Iker Muniain in 2018.
There is another "emergency rule" in LaLiga. When a clause is paid in full the team losing the player has 30 days to sign a free player or buy from domestic teams. The player cannot not be registered for European competitions though. This is the case of ATM after Arsenal paid Thomas's clause.
So it's a clause that seems to mainly benefit the larger teams in La Liga whilst also hurting the lower teams struggling for safety. Why am I not surprised.
Doesn't France have some sort of exception transfer rule after the window closes? The clubs can make one transfer from either a French side or a free agent? (if my FM memory serves me right :P )
Having both the emergency transfer rule and contract buyout clause requirement is a bit like allowing companies to compensate CEOs through stock options and also allowing stock buybacks. In isolation, neither of those two policies is a bad idea. Together, though, you have a really unfortunate set of unintended consequences.
In my opinion the rule should be much more restrictive, you can't use it for outfield players if you have over 20 outfield players registered. For GK you can only have 1 fit one (i.e. The limit is 2 with the added player) For wide players your limit is 1 on the effected side (LB, LWB,LM, & LW make up the left hand side) For defenders the limit is 5 total including LB LWB RB &RWB For CB the limit is 3 and includes DM For CM the limit is 3 including AM and DM For forwards the limit is 2, ST, AM and attacking wingers count If you have under 15 fit players you can use this regardless of the situation otherwise To even the balance of power I would also add the buyout clause when used under this rule is a payment for a loan until the next transfer window not the purchasing price and can include any other loan restrictions like not playing against the donor team. The team gaining a player also pay all wages and bonuses
This clause isn’t fair in the slghtest. One team loses a player temporarily due to injury, while the other team lose a player permanently without warning and without replacement. Maybe Barça shouldn’t have loaned out so many players or given other academy prospects a chance in the first team to cover for injuries
This could be fixed by only allowing free agents to be signed and internal player have to be considered first It also shows an inability to adapt Messi gresman and fati could of carryed them through the whole season and they had 5 strikers on the books 2 being loaned out without a deal signed on there replacements and not to mention the b team And youth teams
You do realize who our president and manager was right? Bartmeou doesn't believe in anything short of buying for players only. And now we're trying to buy back our own academy players bc we've had managers that won't start youth prospects.
Tifo doing a masterclass in in-debt footballing videos. keep it up. Although the way the narrator says "Behemoth" and "issues" always catch me by surprise...
Dear TifoFootball: for all the great work you do, and it is absolutely fantastic, I think you should know that IT'S PRONOUNCED "MARKA" not "MARSA" lmao
I don’t get how the rule can exist without allowing the victim team (such as Leganes in the Braithwaite example) to also sign a replacement? Like how is it fair to steal the best player of a lower team just because you have an injury and then they can’t even replace that crucial player? Madness 🤯
I know you need to advertise the Athletic, but these long adverts are starting to put me off Tifo Football. Perhaps you could make a shorter one for some videos?
What LaLiga let Barca do to Leganes was an absolute disgrace, they basically relegated Leganes by handicapping them like that. Emergency transfer should be scrapped because big clubs like Barca often have incredible academies and can easily look there for solutions when players get long term injuries. As a matter of fact, clubs should be pushed to use their academies more over transfers, the inflated transfer market just ends up being a bunch of rich clubs exchanging huge sums with each other.
I can see why a rule such as this exists but it should only be allowed if both clubs agree to it, not by triggering a buyout clause. Leganes fans must still be furious.
In Spain players are allowed to buy themselves out so for more security most players are given release clauses. I think they used to be compulsory but it changed. This is my interpretation of the law but I don't know whether this is correct
There is no justification for that rule .....I was so pissed off when that happened with Barca ..twas despicable ...the entire point of managing a club is that u make do with what u have at the time
I kinda feel this is surface level stuff, video is 6mins long and still not sure why Leganes were legally blocked, only just they were legally blocked..
Stupid rule. It should actually be a trade rule if they want to keep it that desperately. Let a player you don't want go there in exchange, or abolish the rule and use your own academy
The gems of TIFO are under-recognised timely coverage like this.

It's true if you look at it as no player says no to Barcelona and real Madrid they keep release clauses a 800-600 million for their players
You can't remove the buy out clause unless the Spanish gov makes an exception for sports.
It's a nationwide thing, not just in sports.
They can remove the option to pay the release clause with this rule ONLY. And keep release clause only for transfer Windows so teams can find a replacment
