Can we just not sell him for close to nothing rather than pay him off? surely some clubs in the championship wouldn't mind having him.

It's all a bit of guesswork but given we didn't feel the need to sell players in January when bids came in, it's probably fair to assume we are confident of passing FFP/PSR in the 23/24 season. With under 2 months left of the financial period, we now likely have a very good view of how much headroom we have. And assuming we have headroom, it probably makes sense to bring forward a couple of million (circa. £2.5m assuming he's on £50k pw) in cost into the 23/24 financial year which in turn provides more headroom for the 24/25 financial year. 

 

Could be the opposite as well. He's got £5m owed to him over 2 years. We could offer £3.5m payoff now, or spread the load even wider, such as the £5m over 10 years which is a nice safety net till his late 30s, whilst he's free to go earn elsewhere. 

 

The latter is what sunderland did with clattermole.

He wouldn't give up the money he's owed on his contract. Has another few years.

Think we've already paid off his contract according to the books

This is my understanding also, this was the year we had that 90% wages to turnover ratio.

Was going to say its possible that was part of the accounting loss we accrued a couple of seasons ago although he started most games til Xmas 2021 so that would suggest otherwise

I remember Rafa saying he wanted to sign him after watching just a few minutes of footage, good luck to him wherever he goes.

[BergenMagpie]

So thatll be Dummett, Hayden, Hendrick, Ritchie and Karius off the books from next season? 

Left with Fraser and Lewis who got 1 year left..

Will be nice to replace these with young talented players.

 

Best of luck to Hayden tho, very decent in his time and scored a few memorable goals

 

[Big Geordie]

A good servant to the club - never let us down during the Ashley years.

 

Best wishes for the future, Issac.

Fraser and Lewis likely to be sold too. I think those two might be the only ones we may get a small fee for

We will struggle to get money for either of those. 
 

I thought Dummy was signing a new 1 year deal as well.

Perhaps if either of Soton or Norwich get promoted, but even then you're looking at nominal fees, maybe a couple of million each.

[Colos Short and Curlies]

If we have accelerated recognising his wages then its very likely (I'd say pretty much 100%) that any residual transfer fee on the books would have been written off at the same time so releasing him will have nil impact on FFP

Exactly we won’t be expecting much, but a nominal fee is better than nothing

[JigsawGoesToPieces]

Has this been announced he has left yet? Cant remember seeing anything official

[andycap]

He's got a year left I think. 

[toontownman]

Like a new signing.

Two years left actually

His contract has been paid up, hasn't it? I.e. no more years.

Think there was a tweet that stated this. No official confirmation. Think the club would post a send off for him if it had happened?

Ah, you might be right then mate.

 

I can't see anything official either now you say it and I'm sure you'd have been on it if there was, PauloRomanoGeordio

If this is the case, I’d be surprised if we have breached psr. Why would we make our position worse by writing off a further 2 years of his contract, costing somewhere in the region of £5m, potentially triggering (increased) point deductions.

if we could afford to write it off, we are possibly just within the limits and maybe we aren’t as desperate to sell as the media darlings would have you believe.

Not just the media darlings with Minteh, I think they’re saying his camp has confirmed it.
