Manchester United chief executive David Gill has called on the Premier League to force other clubs to reveal just how much they spend on agent's fees.
United are currently the only Premiership club to announce exactly what they pay to agents, which last year amounted to £2.2million, most of which was in connection to Wayne Rooney's £27million transfer from Everton.
Irritated the present stance just exposes United to intense criticism, Gill has vowed to halt the situation should the rest of the club's top flight rivals fail to follow suit.
But rather than withdraw United's transparency, Gill believes it would be far better for the Premier League to instigate a rule change which forces all 20 members to be open in their declarations.
"I am sure there will be certain clubs who are opposed to the release of these figures and won't do it, he said. "That is why it needs leadership from the Premier League.
"It is not a matter of being forceful. It is a matter of having a dialogue and discussion. I do not know whether we pay the same, more or less than other clubs but I do know we have nothing to hide about the sums involved.
"There is so much talk about agents. A lot of myths and scare stories have grown around them. If people showed what they were paid, some of the fears supporters have could be allayed but it is something the Premier League would have to do and introduce into their rules," he added.
