The report charted the number of international transfers and
loans concluded between FIFA's 200 member associations, totalling 133,225 such
moves over the period from 2011 to 2020.
Transfer market activity rose steadily from 11,890 in 2011
to a peak of 18,079 in 2019, with Brazilian nationals (15,128) the most
frequent movers to foreign clubs.
The number of clubs conducting international transfers
increased by more than 30 percent over the past decade, from 3,167 in 2011 to a
high of 4,139 in 2019.
However the 30 top-spending clubs all came from Europe, led
by England with 12. Spain and Italy had five each with Germany (three), France
and Portugal (both two) and Russia (one) completing the list.
This group of clubs alone forked out $22.8 billion on
transfer fees, representing 47 percent of the global total over the decade.
FIFA also highlighted the growing commissions paid to
agents, which soared from 131.1 million in 2011 to 640.5 million two years ago.
Agents pocketed $3.5 billion in commission on overseas deals over the course of
the decade.
