Equity In Football - Capping Salaries

The gulf between rich and poor clubs has never been greater. The amount of money circulating in the game has never been greater. The amount of players instantly becoming multi millionaires and buying fast cars and large mansions have never been greater. However, more sadly, the amount of clubs, especially ones with a lot of prestige and history behind them, going under have never been greater.


The main advantage of such a system is that it ensures that each team is competitive despite their revenue and profits. It ensures parity and equity for the players and keeps the fans on the edge of their seats when it comes to challenging for the title as no one is shoo-in.

The major drawback of a salary is that it will potentially not make it any easier for clubs to retain their best players or recruit new talent. A salary cap in one country would give an advantage to those clubs in countries where there is no salary cap. A salary cap has the potential of actually increasing the wealth divide between the richest and poorest clubs.
