PFCC SETS KOVACS FEE
The decision of the Professional Football Compensation Committee meeting held on Tuesday 5 August 2008 in Manchester in relation to the registration of Janos Kovacs with Lincoln City is as follows:
- The PFCC decided that Lincoln City should pay Chesterfield a compensation fee of £17,500.
- Chesterfield should receive 20% of any profit made by Lincoln City in selling the player to another club at any point in the future.
In setting this compensation fee, the PFCC took into account the costs of training and development, the player's age and playing record, the length of time he was registered with his former club, the terms offered by both clubs, the fee paid by the former club in acquiring the player's original registration, the status of the two clubs and the interest shown by other clubs in acquiring the registration of the player.
In accordance with the rules of the Premier League and The Football League, and in agreement with The Professional Footballers' Association, the Professional Football Compensation Committee (PFCC) is responsible for setting the compensation fee for professional players where the club formerly holding his registration and the club next holding his registration fail to reach an agreement regarding compensation for training and development.
The PFCC comprises of an independent Chairman, appointees from the Premier League and The Football League (as applicable), an appointee of The Professional Footballers'Association and an appointee of the League Managers' Association.
