Barcelona's Neymar plan: They will launch article 17

A very unknown FIFA rule in the football world can enable Barcelona to transfer Neymar.

Barcelona does everything it can to transfer Neymar.

In the summer of 2017, the Catalan giant did its best last year to re-add Neymar, which PSG added to its squad by paying 222 million euros, but could not agree with the Ligue 1 team about the testimonial.

In the summer, they will make another move to carry out this transfer. An even more ambitious move than ever ...

According to the 17th article, which is not known in the legislation, a player who has signed a contract before the age of 28 has the right to terminate his contract for a certain fee after completing the three years in his contract. This article, which regulates the cancellation of the contract without "legitimate justification", emerged in 2001 when the transfer legislation of FIFA came into effect, threatening the institution to ban all transfer activities on the grounds that the European Commission restricted athletes' freedom of travel and work. FIFA added such an item to the transfer legislation in order not to contradict its rights to freedom of travel and work within the borders of the EU.

The first player to benefit from this was Scottish Andy Webster. Webster, who played in Hearts, was transferred to Wigan Athletic of the period's Premier League team, a year before his contract expired in 2006. After the process that extended to the courts, CAS decided to pay Webster's only 150,000 pounds.

This item, which is compared to the Bosman Rule with its critical importance in transfers, is not used by the clubs, but Barcelona darkened its eyes for Neymar and started its contacts with lawyers.

Barcelona sees Neymar, 28, as the heir to Lionel Messi, and the Brazilian striker who does not find what he hopes at PSG also wants to return to the Catalan giant.
