<p><strong><a href="https://openlife.ng/">OpenLife Nigeria</a></strong> reports that Federation of International Football Association, FIFA, has published its International Transfer Snapshot between June 1 –September 1, 2023, according to FIFA source.</p>
<p>It is an analysis of the international player transfer activity during the 2023 mid-year transfer window, which reveals a number of all-time high figures in both men’s and women’s football.</p>
<p>An all-time top figure of USD 7.36 billion was spent on transfer fees in the 2023 mid-year window, which represents an increase of 47.2% compared to the 2022 mid-year period and 26.8% compared to the previous mid-year record set in 2019.</p>
<p>Emilio García Silvero, FIFA Chief Legal &; Compliance Officer, commented: “England topped the list in the 2023 mid-year period when it came to spending on transfer fees (USD 1.98 billion), the number of incoming transfers (449) and the number of outgoing transfers (514).</p>
<p>Germany, however, was the number one in terms of receipts from transfer fees (USD 1.11 billion) – this being the first time ever that clubs from a single association have received more than USD 1 billion in the mid-year transfer window alone.”</p>
<p>Saudi Arabia was the number two in spending with a total of USD 875.4 million, ahead of France (USD 859.7 million), Germany (USD 762.4 million), Italy (711.0 million) and Spain (USD 405.6 million).</p>
<p>As a result, clubs from the AFC region accounted for 14.0% of the global transfer spending, marking the first time that teams from a confederation other than UEFA have surpassed 10% of the total.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.vanguardngr.com/">In relation to the women’s game, Mr García Silvero added: “The number of transfers during the mid-year registration period also increased for the sixth year in a row, with 829 transfers, 66 of which were with fees. </a></p>
<p>These are both new records, with +19.1% and +83.3% respectively.” Europe was also dominant in the women’s game, with 634 incoming and 565 outgoing transfers.</p>
<p>Germany came out on top in terms of the number of incoming transfers (55), whereas France led the way in outgoing transfers, with a total of 53. Spending on transfer fees in the women’s game more than doubled compared to the 2022 mid-year window, reaching a new mid-year record of USD 3.0 million.</p>
<p>Agent fees also reached a new high, with USD 696.6 million paid during the mid-year window, bringing the total for 2023 to date to USD 853.0 million, which is 36.9% higher than in the whole of 2022 and more than in any other year.</p>
<p>In January 2024, FIFA will publish an in-depth analysis of the characteristics of international transfers concluded over the course of the whole year (2023).</p>
