Specifically referring to football, Credinvest International Corporate Finance has discounted, and continues to do so, the receivable due from one football club purchasing a player (the purchaser is mainly from the UK, Italy or Spain) to the Club selling the player. Such transactions are always effected on a one to two year credit period, and typically, the selling club wishes to discount the receivable in order not to carry the Buying club risk onto its books.
Our work in football has also led to our advising Clubs on the structures and means with which they could finance new stadium development and management.
