Thanks, that's much clearer than the explanations I've seen before.
So it's basically the price to void the existing contract instead of moving the player with his contract.

The contract is between the club and the player, nothing to do with the league.
A club “owns” a player under contract, so if someone wants to buy the player, they can ask for whatever price they want and turn down any offer if they choose.
Often the costs have a lot of conditions included to protect the buyer and incentivise the player. Such as more money after a number of games played and more money if they win a trophy etc.
