Ben Doak in action for Liverpool<\/p>\n
Ben Doak is on the verge of a \u00a325m move to Bournemouth \u2013 and while Celtic<\/a> don’t stand to make anything from his initial move, a little known FIFA rule may still pay out in the future.<\/p>\n The former Celtic winger joined Liverpool<\/a> in 2022 after his contract at Parkhead expired, with the Reds paying around \u00a3600,000 in training compensation to take him to the Premier League.<\/p>\n Since that was technically a free transfer with no deal agreed between the clubs, Celtic don’t have a sell-on clause inserted in his contract.<\/p>\n That means his imminent move to Bournemouth<\/a>, which comes after just 10 appearances for the Merseyside giants, won’t pay out in the same way that Jeremie Frimpong’s money-spinning move to Anfield did.<\/p>\n But that’s not quite the end of the story.<\/p>\n As part of FIFA and UEFA’s training compensation system, five per cent of any transfer fee for international moves before a player turns 23 must be set aside and divvied out between clubs who played a role in their training and development from the ages of 12 to 23.<\/p>\n But, per UEFA rules<\/a>, that only applies when a player moves from one association to another.<\/p>\n
