[DannyWhite]

Aubameyang & Lewandowski...If you are Borussia fan Im sorry for you but this is great example... What is importent money or pasion supporters club history trophys ?!?Lewandowski played for Borussia till contract ends for100% Aubameyang choose money dont care contract or fans selfish player.


Should stay like this or FIFA have to do smth with this kind of players??
I think money in football are good but when its too much players go crazy and kids which follow them all learning bad behavior .

for fans is passion, for the other side it s only business

Football has turned into a business, unfortunately for fans!

 

[Vodnik2017]

Any sport can not live without finance (equipment, organization of training, holding tournaments, etc.).
And any sport turns into a business.

This is happening in every league in the world,in every sport.It`s called free agency,,,without it,teams don`t pay players what they`re worth. What if your son played for a team? And he was the best,,,but his team only paid him pennies? Or should he be able to leave and get paid the maximum? The $$$ is there,if the players don`t take it,it goes into the owners pockets,,,,

I don't see anything bad that our favourite sport profitable, means will long live and please us. the television rights for display of soccer in the best leagues of Europe rise in price every year, revenues of clubs and the salary of players respectively grow.
as for a question of Obomiyange, Lewandowski and other players, they too once passed from poorer clubs into Borussia, and too with salary increase. I think that then you treated it normally.

I do not understand why the players get such a lot of money. Can anybody tell me?

Because they are famous and every good team want them. Big cash encourage them to stay in the club. Also they are sponsored, participate in advertising. They are like celebrities

 

[GRIN281289]

I think that passion and money all together

 

[Enthusiast]

For some it is a passion for other big money

 

[KozakAlex]

Not all players are eager for money. Once Luis Suárez refused a big salary in Shakhtar Donetsk, because he considered the Ukrainian championship not attractive for the continuation of his career. He dreamed of playing in the best championships for the strongest teams. And now he plays for Barcelona and probably gets a salary more than he was once offered in Shakhtar.

Agree with you

 

[Max Diver]

It has to be both. Its a passion for a lot of people. But it has to be a good business, otherwise will be no Football...
When kids they play for passion, after became a PRO mostly play for business and self promotion.

 

[Vilgeoforc]

Fees and transfers in football and hockey are inflated when compared with other sports, such as biathlon.

 

[escurimX]

today football is a lucrative way to make lots of money

My opinion is that football is still more of a business than just a game, as being the most popular sport in the world, it is not possible at the moment, not to be an attractive place for businessmen and businessmen. For example, that very rarely a team of medium and low rank, can beat the grandees, and if this happens, the team of middle or lower rank reaches the haste in a certain tournament, then by the next season, this team takes 2-4 key players, because of tempting offers of other super clubs. I believe that football is, and will remain primarily a business, as there are huge amounts of money circulating

 

[MaryRoldan]

For football fans it is passion.

 

[invisible10]

for players and managers is business with the exception of some for fans is pure passion

 

[TpaEnforcement]

football is passion for the fans. business in advertising , for the owners and players as well as the agents.

 

[Andrei Korolev]

Sport should remain a sport and business...

 

[CylleP]

unfortunately, now it is more business. =(

 

[ChrisDavidson]

Everyone has their own opinion ! I think that football is both business and passion. Everywhere there is money and this is normal!

 

[teteuc2]

The truth is that football is only passion for us fans and lovers of the sport. On the other side is business and lots of money involved.
