Thanks Ben. I think at this stage the only answer I can truly give is 'I don't know'

Amazing pod, this is fascinating. If it goes through, do you think there's a chance that it could effectively mean that every player now has the equivalent of a release clause? If an independent body are defining a compensation fee should the contract be broken, surely it would prevent any club from asking for a transfer fee higher than the compensation fee.
