WSFFL Rulebook - 'Real Life' Transfers

If one of your players gets transferred in 'real life'...

You'll be given the option of whether to retain that player or whether to accept the amount of money paid in 'real life'*. If it's an undisclosed fee you'll be offered half the player's WSFFL value.

If you believe that the undisclosed fee disadvantages you, you can appeal that verdict by providing evidence of a true fee from a reputable website.

If they return after a loan, go on a free or come to the end of their contract you could lose them for nothing so you'll need to be on your toes.

If you sell a player who, due to timings, then becomes available at any of our auctions you cannot buy him back for less than the amount you were paid. If however no one buys that player at the auction he will go into the pool and be available for £500k, including to the manager who originally sold him.

*Currently transfermarkt.com is the source for fees. WSFFL doesn't pay add-ons.

In the event of a ‘real life’ transfer going to tribunal to decide a fee, the WSFFL manager can:

1) Retain the player in their squad in the normal way or,
2) Release the player and be paid the compensation when known.

The manager’s decision needs to be made at the time of the transfer and can’t be reversed.
