Sorry for another post, I am going to keep this one short and to the point.
I was thinking about this and I know it won’t happen but it would make football a lot more of a competition. In the NFL every team has the same amount of money they can spend a year and if they go over the cap there is a massive penalty. It is different to football as money in the NFL is all player contracts as there is no buying players from other teams. (Extremely Rare) I am not going to go deeper into explaining it but you get the gist.
Anyway, I think this would be great for football (not a chance it happens), imagine the premier league, given how competitive it is already, being even more competitive. Let’s say the cap is around 100 million for each team to spend on transfers. First it would mean teams would be less likely to sell their top players. It would mean having a higher value of the youth academy and as a result of that, more young English talent coming through which would be brilliant. Success will be more influenced by how good your coaching is instead of what prince owns your club and how much money does he want to spend. (Joking... kinda lol) Also players and clubs will still be earning a large amount of money from sponsors so it’s not like it affects the players in a massive way, it just stops teams like City and PSG from buying the league. It would be a good for football overall.
Just a silly idea, would like to hear your thoughts, I am sure there is a few issues with it.
