Co-ownership (football)

Italy Co-ownership deals were common in Italian football, before being banned at the end of the 2014–15 season. The practice was sanctioned in Article 102 bis of the FIGC Internal Organizational Regulations (''Norme Organizzative Interne della FIGC'') and were officially known as "participation rights" (''diritti di partecipazione''). For a co-ownership to be set, a player needed to be signed to a team and have at least two years left in their contract. It worked as a regular tr ...
