paulmatthewbrowne Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 By "Buy-out" I mean offer money to a club for a certain transfer clause in a players contract that had previously been agreed between the two clubs such as a "percentage of next transfer" or "money after so many international appearences/goals" etc. It happened when Spurs bought-out the two transfer clauses in Gareth Bales transfer contract with Southampton regarding international appearences and a possible future transfer percentage. I know it probably doesn't happen that often IRL, but it does happen. It would probably be more useful for a club struggling for funds, the club could ask for money instead of waiting to cash-in on any future agreement (I think thats what happen in the Spurs-Southampton-Bale case) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there was a 50% sell on clause that West Brom would of been due, but Villa paid them off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommo_Got_Booted! Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Yes it was something like that, i'm pretty sure we also did it with Gareth Barry as well cus Brighton were having financial difficulties and needed the cash (I think we paid around £1 million) though I stand to be corrected.
