I don't oppose it morally. Corporations should pay as much taxes as legally possible.

It's just that football clubs as corporations bring in so much money for the country in other ways as well. Paying rent for the stadiums, attracting tourism to the country and bringing in commercial deals to the league.

So taking away the only financial advantage that they had means they can't attract some of the players that they could before. So it's just less money across the board.

So it just makes sense to not include football clubs in rules like this, especially retroactively.
