You've probably never heard of Raqui San Isidro? Well they are about to benifit from £320,000 (€450,000) all because of the winger's move to chelsea.
This is because FIFA has a special mechanism to support local clubs called the 'training and solidarity mechanism'. Raqui will recieve this large sum because Pedro played for the club up to the age of 17.

"It will mean we're not dependent on subsidies from the local authorities in the Canaries...It will guarantee is some €5,000 or €6,000 per month."
