In a recent development at FIFA's annual law conference in Tokyo, FIFA president Gianni Infantino has once again brought up the idea of using algorithms to determine football transfer fees. This concept, which has been circulating for a few years now, aims to increase transparency and standardize the valuation process in the global transfer market, which currently exceeds $10 billion annually.
Infantino believes that discussing the use of algorithms to estimate the fair value of transfer fees is of utmost importance for the football community. By implementing such a system, the intention is to assist football stakeholders in negotiating transfer deals and potentially curbing exorbitant fees.
