Its nothing to do with passion anymore - it's a multibillion pound business.

It's the Watford model - Footballers value is intangible and it is easy to create inflated asset values of a player that is contracted to a club simply by transferring them to another in your stable -

e.g. Club X sells to club Y for £100m - club Y then loans the player back to club X for a loan fee of £80m - club X then gives the directors a £20m bonus.

In accordance with UK Government Policy no facts have been used in this suggestion and it has been created in the fantasy world somewhere beteen Narnia and the Emerald City.
