Life goes on? Of course, football will return in full. Of course, where football is, there are transfers.
But it is also naive to assume that the huge financial losses that are incurred in these days (weeks, months, how long will the pandemic last?) clubs of all countries, except for the cheerful Belarus, will pass without a trace for them. Clubs suffer huge losses from the loss of money for TV broadcasts. In their budgets in Europe, these amounts sometimes played a dominant role. We have it easier, but still. Series a reports the total losses in the amount of 450 million euros.
At the same time, clubs still pay players salaries, at least partially. Idle stadiums need to be maintained in full order, which is also not cheap. Stadiums in Europe, again, belong to clubs, not to regional authorities, as is often the case in Russia. Academies and specialist schools there are in each team. Children do not train now, but you can't expel employees and you can't deprive them of their salaries, the numbers are not the same, but the total is running up.
And everything should be ready to resume the training process in full at any moment when COVID-19 finally retreats.
