It is not a match in the big European championships and on the continental scene where children are not put forward during the pre-match ritual, accompanying on the lawn, hand in hand, their idols of the ball. The image is nice, surely, but too often hides a business that in England is scandalous.
According to a survey by the Telegraph, in the Premier League, the sums invested by the children concerned are considerable. And have been crescendo since 2020 for a good half of the elite clubs which in the matter undoubtedly make figures of bad students. This is the case of Nottingham Forest, Brighton, Crystal Palace, Ipswich or West Ham.
As for the first club, so we observe a package at 1800 pounds (around 2100 euros), excluding taxes, to allow a child, accompanied by three guests, of course, to live the experience with one of his favorite players. The English media aroused recalls that this is a sum superior to the average monthly rent in force in Nottingham for a three -bedroom house. Namely 1373 pounds… a madness.
