Question juridique clé
Whether input tax on acquisition of player transfer rights is deductible when players are made available free of charge to FC X.
Solution extraite
No. The rights were used for a non-taxable, unpaid transfer to FC X, so the input tax deduction was excluded or at least subject to reduction.
Motifs extraits
Only input used for taxable supplies qualifies. Free provision lacks consideration and is not an output transaction. Actual use, not the taxpayer's asserted investment intent, is decisive.
