For every footballer on the market, Football Index players can acquire shares at the buying price of each, and they can sell those shares at the sell price, or back to the market.
So if you think Alexis Sanchez might be value for money because he's been out injured, he now has a new manager and his performances and clout might grow if he plays anywhere near what he's capable of, then you'd be wise to get shares in him now before everyone's talking about him and everyone starts purchasing them. Sanchez's stock has dropped because... well, he's been shit at United. But an upturn in form and positive attention could see his value grow, where you can then sell him off for profit. He's already got a goal under Olé.
Of course, if you get it wrong, you could be purchasing shares in a player whose value will only decrease. If you went for Phil Jones, for example, you'd be stupid.
Like any market, price is driven by supply and demand. When traders buy, the price goes up. When they sell, the price goes down.And there are now over 2900 players in the game, plenty of ways to make sure you avoid Phil Jones. Dividend Whilst you can play the long game by purchasing shares in a player and wait for the sell price to increase based on his demand, there's also the option of trying to make money on dividends. These are daily payouts on players that perform well in either the media or the pitch.
Football Index allows customers to buy & sell shares in the world’s top footballers like commodities on a stock exchange. Traders can earn dividends on both media and Opta powered performance metrics from their portfolio of footballers. The share prices are dictated purely by demand.
