De Jong is annoyed by Spanish resistance to new ones

According to Vi.

Background

Jan de Jong, as director of the Eredivisie CV, plays a central role in the discussion about transfer policy in Europe. His efforts to reform the transfer deadline reflect the needs of Eredivisie clubs to survive in an increasingly competitive environment. However, the blockade by Javier Tebas could significantly hinder the plans of De Jong and other European officials.

Why this is important

The discussion about the transfer deadline has far-reaching effects on the stability of European football. Jan de Jong emphasizes that the current regulation results in an unpredictable market that affects not only the Eredivisie, but also other leagues such as the Premier League and the Bundesliga. A uniform date could improve the competitive conditions and help clubs to plan their squads more efficiently.

Key findings

• De Jong is annoyed by Spanish resistance to new ones.
• Eredivisie CV director Jan de Jong expresses his frustration at Spanish resistance to a new European transfer deadline, which he believes threatens the stability of football.
• The Jong is based in Spain before the new transfer deadline.

Eredivisie CV director Jan de Jong has spoken out about La Liga president Javier Tebas' blocking of plans for a new European transfer deadline. De Jong wants the summer transfer window to close earlier, similar to other countries such as England, Germany, France and Italy. However, Spain's resistance to this initiative means that a joint closure of the transfer window on August 15th is not possible. In an interview with ESPN's "Goedemorgen Eredivisie", De Jong explained the current problem: "We are trying to move forward the transfer deadline in Europe, but Spain is stopping us. If Spain doesn't follow suit, countries like England, Italy, France and Germany won't be able to follow either. Tebas' argument is that he wants to influence the salary structure of Spanish clubs, and he wants to do that until shortly before the start of the season." De Jong sees a better solution in a transfer deadline shortly before the start of the leagues. "The way things are going now is not good, it's ugly and undesirable. It's becoming a casino: if you reach the Champions League, you buy two more players, if not, you have to sell two or three. That's not good for the stability of football. We can't just overrule Spain, but there is actually pressure on Spain from those in charge of the English and German leagues, but they aren't moving. "We have a transfer window of 12 weeks, but most transfers happen in the last four weeks. We would also like to shorten the transfer period. The other countries don't have the courage to simply exclude Spain. As the Netherlands we are a selling market. We are already too small for the napkin format, let alone the tablecloth format," De Jong continued. Genoa coach Daniele De Rossi also expressed his incomprehension about the current situation in Italy: "I really don't understand why there is no solution for a new transfer deadline. If you set the deadline for August 15th, everyone will do their business by then. I don't think anyone benefits from a transfer deadline that expires while the leagues are already in full swing. Shortening the transfer window would give everyone more clarity."

What happens next

It remains to be seen whether pressure from other European leagues, particularly England and Germany, will lead to a rethink in Spain. Jan de Jong and other officials could continue to try to reach an agreement to enable a joint closure of the transfer window. If this fails, the Eredivisie could continue to suffer from the unequal conditions created by the different deadlines.
