When their electronic tag is removed!I read somewhere that allegedly Conte doesn't think young Italian or Spanish players should leave their home country before the age of about 23-24. For reasons of "emotional maturity".
I wonder what age he'd put on scousers leaving Liverpool?
proably why we are at lenglet now
If you are going to value transfers like this, then transfers in the past few years would also have leftover principle that would need to be covered by payments this year (which would impact the 100m).
In other words, You can’t say no biggie it’s only 20m upfront and only count 20m against the budget but not count installments due from previous years’ transfers.
I've literally been saying this for the whole day,
We wouldn't have drawn this £100m out to go and blow on players this window. Business just isn't done that way.
That is referring to the croation article posted before. Apparently those guys are unreliable.
Won't have much choice unless they can convince an oil club to pay the fee and pay it all in one go.
FFP rules keep changing. But if you look at the slides below from Swiss Ramble this morning you will note an adjustment for 'Profit on Sale of Players'
That implies to me that the full cost of players is not deducted in year 1, otherwise the adjustment for 'Profit on Sale of Players' would make little sense.
Pertinent part of that article is, will have a release clause of Circa 50M euros or a little over that , if it was 50M euros for example, very do able !
Why should they change the habits of a lifetime
Their Ad sales peak is at Transfer Window time so the more stories they can
Typically clubs would agree on a lower price for straight cash and installments would just mean a higher total price. Similar to interest on a mortgage or any loan (well this doesn’t work cause an intermediary supplies the loan). But think like a furniture company that is offering financing.
So if Everton is desperate for money now, 40m straight cash might be preferred to 50m paid equally over 4 years… especially with the recent inflation concerns (because the time value of a specific amount of money decreases over time due to assumed inflation). So for example, assuming 5% inflation each year over 5 years, getting 40m now is equivalent to getting 51.05m in 5 years. So for even installments, it would be somewhere in the middle and a proper value would be around 45m.
Imagine if Levy lost all 3 of his biggest ever signings for nothing.
Do you think anyone in their right minds will buy Ndombele off us? Lamela was part of the Gill deal but he can't have been worth much in that deal. David Bentley was a record signing or close enough iirc and we couldn't sell him. Shit happens.
With Paratici playing the field each window, why are there not more rumors around Torres? Is he not 3rd choice anymore, after Bastoni and Gvardiol?
Which brings up LoCelso and his future. Are we waiting for Atletico’s interest to drive up his value to help with a possible reduction in price for Torres in a swap deal?
Curious why this scenario has gone so quiet in the media.

Tomorrows newspaper headlines ..
“Spurs ace Kulu says ‘Spurs will win the lot next season’”
Selling Ndombele would also mean a massive loss on player transfers as our accounting books have him as an asset that is way higher than we could sell him for. So we’d be selling the asset for a loss.
This would be a problem if we were close to not meeting FFP. But we are well within FFP limits, so it shouldn’t matter for shit.
Getting someone to buy him on the other hand..
I think we will see much more activity all over Europe starting July 1.

Funny thing is, I work in education but don't have the time to spend 4 hours looking over every single post.
Not that I need to justify, but my posts on the whole are pretty spot on.
Anyway, to keep it on track, we do have an interest in Gordon and have explored the option of bringing him in. I know nothing more than that on the situation.

Wow, ITKunt!!! And they are all licking his ass on there too
Haha it’s beyond pathetic now really.
The guy has literally never got anything right and yet self-proclaims that all his posts are ‘pretty much spot on’.
He literally waits for media stories to break or copies other ‘ITK’ and posts relentless drivel like:
‘Names and deals are pretty sensitive right now so I have to be careful’
‘I can confirm we do have an interest’
‘There has been ‘movement’ on this one’
‘I’ve text my guy to see what the situation is’
‘My guy text me a list of names and he is on it’
I feel like he is a parody ITK? He just can’t be a real person who ‘works in education’?!
