I hope you're right mate. Let's see. The thing is, a fair chunk of the monies gained from the champions league will be consumed by player and staff bonuses.

Swiss Ramble estimated we made £90m in CL prize money, £36m more than last year and in addition there will be some uplift in done sponsorships for getting to CL finals plus extra match day monies from food and drink sales ,advertising found the ground and extra match dayattendence money.( Eg quarter final v Mancity and semi v Ajax ). All adds up.

Agreed a decent chunk out in bonuses etc. But dwarfed by extra revenues
 
A well known tweeter saying what I suggested a few months is now in process.

Nabil Bentaleb buy back clause being activated ( circa £24m)
- 24 year old with CL experience ( played CL last 16 with Schalke this season)
- Club trained
- Poch knows him well, he knows Kane and others well so minimal integration required
- Mainly played CM or DM in double pivot under Poch, used to play as AM in Spurs youth.good tackler passer knows how to press and get assists. What's not to like

Add him to Ndombele and Lo Celso as midfield (CM and AM) and probably done there - still need Kane deputy after Llorente leaves but that might be AM/striker.
Poch knows him too well, that’s why he won’t be back. Disruptive influence.
 
We bid for him apparently? Aulas knocked us back is the story, how true I don’t know?

Ya, I have no idea (obviously), but there has been so much more news relating to Ndombele this window that I feel like we were just kicking the tires last year but he wasn't going anywhere. I mean that article mentions Man City, too, and I imagine if he was for sale and they wanted him it would be done.
