It's prob safe to say that Spence & Lenglet won't be on the plane to Korea tomorrow/Sat

It's a shame for Conte. 3 big positions he wanted resolving before pre season were LCB and both right and left wing backs and so far we've only got Perisic in at lwb.

If true surely Sarr would eventually count as HG.

Explained: How the Premier League’s homegrown rule is impacting your club’s transfers

We explain the homegrown rule in the Premier League and reveal which clubs need to sign more homegrown players this summer...

www.google.com

William Saliba is another interesting example. The France international, born in Paris, counts as a homegrown player because he has been on Woolwich’s books and listed in their Premier League squad for three seasons before his 21st birthday.

I've just read up on this. Woolwich used a loophole in which despite Saliba being out on loan, they registered him in their PL squad anyway, meaning he counts as HG in the PL. I'm surprised it's legal and I'm sure it wouldn't have been allowed if the team they were loaning him to were in a European comp (if Woolwich also were).

Sarr I don't believe was registered in our PL squad, but even if he was, he would only count as HG in the PL, but wouldn't in UEFA comps.

I reckon today is the day they announce we've tied down Winks and Ndombele on long term 6 year contracts!!!

Spain doesn’t have any tax breaks like Italy does for football players do they?

 

[Zomb]

Perisic can play a fuck ton of positions, but he can't play every game.

Agree - but he could cover the odd game on the right if needed

Not sure mate.

Tax breaks for footballers..... What an absolute piss-take.

Tax breaks for footballers..... What an absolute piss-take.

I can’t quite remember if the breaks in italy applied just for footballers, or if it was something that just really suited them.
Either way it’s a piss take.

Chelsea aren't invading everyone else's transfers, it's a special footballing operation

Boehly’s transfer strategy….

Glad we kicked proverbial fuck out of them when they attempted to nick Richarlison, the fucking plastic shit eating plebs.

Fuck off Boehly you ratting ratbag

 

[Oracle]

I expect Lenglet & Spence will be announced tomorrow, too much smoke without there being a fire and we all know Conte wants them on the plane to South Korea.

Holistic genius.

Thanks Michael Owen!



I do imagine that Barca will want this one done asap though to get his wages off their bill so they can bring in someone else.
