In April, the Football Association finally announced the entry list for the third professional league for the new season. In the context of "not accepting any club to lie flat on the grounds of economic difficulties", in addition to Guizhou and Sichuan Minzu, which did not hand in access materials, other clubs with long-term unpaid wages were let go of the admission pass, and the Football Association introduced a three-step time point for unpaid access. However, the premise of solving the problem is not to "relax the time", but that the club must have funds to inject. However, when the stock reform of many clubs has come to a standstill, many clubs have long been cut off, and some clubs can only focus on the adjustment fee.
A number of clubs want to pay back the reinforcement adjustment fee, and the FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION has been playing tai chi to prevaricate
Earlier this week, Qin Yun, a well-known media personality, published two articles on his personal public account; one was "To solve the salary arrears, we should start from the Football Association: First return the reinforcement adjustment fee", and the other was "The Chinese Football Association, pay back the money!" 》。 Both articles point to the adjustment fee, the second of which is Qin Yun's interview with the boss of a Chinese Super League club. The only clubs that have been announced by the Football Association that have paid the reinforcement adjustment fee are Guoan, Dalian, Evergrande, Quan Jian, Luneng (Shenhua and Shenzhen Club official caliber said that they paid, but the Football Association official did not issue an announcement that the adjustment fee has been paid), and friends who know more about the Chinese football circle, through Qin Yun's "relationship network", can basically judge that the boss who was interviewed by him is Li Ming of Guoan. From this interview, we can draw several valid information:
1. The Football Association has been playing Tai Chi for the adjustment fee for reinforcements, and has not said no withdrawal, nor has it said that it will not withdraw, and it is very uncooperative with the demands of the club.
2, Guoan arrears of wages for more than half a year, in the clubs, the severity is the first, they hope that the Football Association to consider the actual difficulties of the club, as soon as possible to return the adjustment fee; even if only a part of it is returned, deduct a part of it for the use of youth training.
3. The Fa has been there to collect the adjustment fee, and it has not been used in youth training as it was said when it was collected, and it has not been invoiced when it is collected.
Of course, in this interview, the invoice mentioned in the collection is not given; go to the Football Association to communicate, want to return the reinforcement adjustment fee to be hit by Tai Chi, etc., which is by no means unique to the Guoan family. The reason why the previous Shanghai Port did not pay the adjustment fee was because the Football Association could not issue invoices. After the Thunderstorm of Evergrande Group in September last year, the Guangzhou team has been urging the Football Association to refund the adjustment fee; after the "Football" newspaper broke the news, other clubs asked the Football Association if they could refund the adjustment fee. In mid-to-late September last year, the staff of the Football Association replied to the Guangzhou team that they would wait until the leaders returned. Considering that in the senior management of the Football Association, the only one who was not in The country at that time was Chen Shuyuan in West Asia with the national team, this sentence was also interpreted by the management team of the Guangzhou team at that time as Chen Shuyuan could not retreat.
However, since last October, after the national football team returned from Playing Saudi Arabia, the national football team has been in and out of the country several times; the reply of the FOOTBALL Association staff to the club is still "at the end of the year" (the reply received by the club in November last year), "now it is too busy, it will be said in a few days", "Wait until the leader has time to talk about it", in fact, the Football Association has been using the way of playing Tai Chi to prevaricate for the club's demand for reinforcement adjustment fees.
The club waited for the adjustment fee to save his life, but did Chen Shuyuan dare to touch this big nail?
At the beginning, these local tycoons in the Chinese Super League, as little as 500 to 800 million a year, more than a dozen or two billion per year, spent 300 million or 400 million adjustment fees, it is really nothing. But in the post-Gold Dollar era, everyone is living a hard life; not only these clubs who have paid money are staring at the adjustment fee, but even the bosses or investors of the Chinese First Division and the Chinese Second Division clubs who cannot fight with the adjustment fee have also proposed to the Football Association that the adjustment fee should be subsidized to small and medium-sized clubs.
Of course, these Chinese First Division and Chinese Second Division clubs asking the Football Association to subsidize them a part of the adjustment fee paid by Chinese Super League clubs is purely unreasonable. But these clubs who have paid the adjustment fee basically put forward the reason when asking for money is that the adjustment fee is neither reasonable nor legal. The unreasonable thing is that everyone paid it, but SIPG did not pay it; especially in the summer of 19 years, Shenhua paid the adjustment fee to Sharavi, and Shenzhen paid the adjustment fee to Quintero at the beginning of last year, but SIPG did not pay the adjustment fee to Arnautovic, and many clubs felt that it was unfair. The illegality is that the Football Association did not go through the procedure at the Price Bureau, did not get the fee permit, so it could not issue an invoice.
If Paulinho and Talisca's 400 million adjustment fee is refunded to Evergrande, it basically means that all of Evergrande's past wage arrears can be solved, and it can also play according to the salary system of 600,000 yuan for several years. If Bakambu and Vieira's adjustment fees are refunded to Guoan, not only will the wage arrears be solved, but this year's budget will also fall. If the adjustment fees of Carrasco, Hamsik and Longdong can be refunded to Dalian, there will be no problem of wage arrears in Dalian. If Sharavi's adjustment fee can be refunded to Shenhua, Shenhua's salary arrears can basically be solved. Even the Taishan team, which does not owe wages, and the deep foot that only pays a very small part (when the deep foot is paid, the Football Association has changed the standard of charging the adjustment fee from the previous "full collection" to "overcharging") They are also very concerned about the adjustment fee...
The Football Association itself is also very clear that as long as they can refund the adjustment fee, the problem of wage arrears in Guoan, Shenhua, Evergrande and Dalian will be solved. But the question was whether Chen Shuyuan dared to touch this big nail.
In September and October last year, in many comment areas calling for the Fa to refund the adjustment fee, there were voices of "hurry to Cai Zhenhua for money". But friends who have paid attention to Chinese football for a long time know that after the U23+3 foreign aid policy was forced to be launched by the above requirements, Lao Cai has been overridden. So who is the leader of the adjustment fee introduced before the old Cai was overhead and Du Zhaocai parachuted into the Football Association? The claims given by the FOOTBALL Association in private have always been required from above. Li Yuyi, former vice chairman of the Football Association and chairman of the Chinese Super League, has previously shouted in front of the camera for the adjustment fee several times; in an interview with the Beijing News and other media, he clearly stated that the Football Association will definitely collect the adjustment fee, and said that this fee will be used to feed the youth training and social football.
Since the policy is required by the above, and Chen Shuyuan himself is hand-picked to the Fa Association from above; therefore, Chen Shuyuan himself has also said privately that the adjustment fee is not very reasonable, but at this time, to refund the adjustment fee is equivalent to dismantling the platform, and it is possible to offend the above, so he does not dare to touch this big nail at all in this position.
Can the State Administration for Market Regulation's intervention in the investigation promote the refund of the adjustment fee?
The Football Association has also previously tried to hand over more than one billion yuan of adjustment fees to the China Football Development Foundation; but Article 25 of the "Chapter IV Management and Use of Property" of the "Foundation Management Regulations" clearly stipulates: "The foundation organizing fundraising and accepting donations shall conform to the purposes stipulated in the charter and the business scope of public welfare activities." Representative offices of overseas foundations must not organize fundraising or accept donations within the territory of China. Public fundraising foundations organizing fundraising shall announce to the public the public interest activities to be carried out after the funds are raised and the detailed plans for the use of the funds. "Since the reinforcement adjustment fee is definitely not a collection of donations, the China Football Development Foundation simply cannot collect the money in the name of "donation".
The China Football Development Foundation can't accept it, what should I do with this billion or so? Qin Yun broke out a detail in the article "To solve the wage arrears, we should start from the Football Association: First return the reinforcement adjustment fee": "In the early days of collection, the Chinese Football Association used the account of the Chinese Super League Company as a collection account. Later, the Chinese Football Association transferred all the reinforcement adjustment fees to its own accounts, and finally gave up continuing to collect the fees. ”
Since the Football Association is a social organization, the Mainland's Regulations on the Registration and Administration of Social Groups clearly stipulate that "those who collect fees, raise funds, or accept or use donations or funding in violation of the relevant provisions of the state" should be warned to social groups, ordered to make corrections, stop activities, remove the directly responsible supervisors, or even revoke registration, or pursue criminal responsibility according to law. "Since the FA's procedure for collecting adjustment fees has not been passed, in fact, if the FA really hangs the adjustment fee on the FA's account, this is suspected of arbitrarily charging." More than ten days ago, the staff of the State Administration of Market Regulation came to the Chinese Football Association to take into account the issue of investigation and adjustment fees.
When Chen Shuyuan did not dare to touch this big nail, it directly led to the staff of the Football Association can only play Tai Chi when they reply to the club; in the face of public doubts, they do not dare to respond publicly. Can the involvement of the parties involved break the deadlock?
