Problem Statement
The player transfer system in professional football embodies an entrenched, undemocratic structure that often operates in an archaic manner.
Despite the potential for modernization and democratization through blockchain technology, the current system remains characterized by opaque negotiations, centralized control, and limited access for smaller clubs and stakeholders. This outdated approach fosters an environment where power and influence are concentrated in the hands of a select few, perpetuating inequalities and hindering the potential for fair and equitable player movement.
By contrast, blockchain offers a decentralized, transparent alternative that could revolutionize the transfer process, empowering all stakeholders, regardless of size or status, to participate in a more democratic and inclusive manner.
Through blockchain-enabled solutions, such as RWAs, smart contracts and decentralized marketplaces, the football transfer system could be transformed into a more transparent, efficient, and accessible framework, ushering in a new era of fairness and opportunity for clubs, players, and fans alike.
