Soccer/football works in fashion where it's close to impossible for non top 5 leagues sell young players over some price range.
Except Brazil, obviously we don't sell anyone in the range of 100M, but 50M is doable. Neymar, Vini Jr, Rodrygo, etc. went for 40+M directly from Brazil to Spanish giants.
Yea, i was refering to leagues in Europe outside Italian; Franch, England , Spanish and German.
Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay are historiclly basketball pools of talent, maybe that's why players from that leagues can get super expensive to get. But in general, acorss a globe, Europe "big 5" league are places where vast majority of money burning comes from when it comes to spending GDP of small country on players.
Portugal to an extent too
