In April 2015, FIFA announced the banning of third-party ownership, and specifically prohibited either clubs or players from entering into economic rights agreements with third-party investors. The ban took effect on 1 May 2015.

They prevent new deals being done but deals already in place can't be broken just because FIFA change the rules. Any old 3rd party ownerships still remain
 
Not here they don't.
They have never been allowed in England but its very common abroad

Only cases in this country of 3rd party ownership is when West Ham signed Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano. At the time the Premier League was told West Ham owned the players but its since came out they was owned by the agent hence why West Ham had to pay a fine of £5.5M fine and nearly £20M in compensation to Sheffield United

QPR also was charged over Alejandro Faurlin


You have to buy the player 100% to complete the transfer in this country

I think Proud has muddled his words, causing confusion.

Slimani's ex-agent is owed 20% of any transfer fee. A clause in his Islam's contract I assume. He doesn't own any naming rights or anything like that.

Therefore if we buy Slimani for '15m' and pay '45m' for Adrien then Sporting only owe the agent 3m as apposed to 6m should we 'pay' the actual price of 30m for Slimani and 30m for Adrien.

After the "Rojo" case & his views on TPO I'd have been surprised if Sporting's President signed any others with TPO.
