The transfer of Igor Jesus to LA Galaxy is anything but straightforward. At just 21, the talented midfielder—formerly of Flamengo and Portugal’s Estrela Amadora—is making the move to the U.S. for $4 million. However, the real drama is not just about his skill set, but the complex division of economic rights and which clubs will profit most.

LA Galaxy secured 90% of Jesus’ economic rights, but the details get murky when you dig deeper. Flamengo, which owned half of his rights, earned $2 million. Estrela Amadora, holding the remaining 50%, sold 40% of their share, keeping 10% for potential future earnings. While this may sound straightforward, the decision to hold onto a small slice of the player across the Atlantic raises questions—what’s the real value in keeping such a small share?

The complexities of soccer’s economic rights system often resemble a stock market, with clubs trading percentages as investments. Flamengo decided to cash out while Estrela Amadora gambled, holding onto a piece of the pie in hopes that Jesus’ value rises as MLS continues to grow. However, if he struggles, that 10% could end up being worth little.

For Jesus, this is a crucial moment in his career. While the pressure in MLS may not be as intense as in Europe, the expectations will still be high. The Galaxy’s $4 million investment shows confidence, but whether he becomes a star or fades into obscurity remains to be seen. Flamengo may have sold early, but if Jesus thrives, they might regret not holding out for a larger payday.
