Paid £20 million for him right?

 

Think we've done well on this deal all things considered.

 

Good to see.

Only if you believe Ashley’s PR!

 

Was less than Owen so including his wages for the 5yrs probably£21m in total.

 

Still don’t think we paid £40m for Joelinton unless it included his contract too.

So if we paid £21m for him on a 5 1/2 year contract in Jan 19, but he signed a new 3 1/2 contract in Feb 23 and were getting £10m back for him have we actually nearly broke even with him in terms of FFP 🤣

 

Edit so original contract was omortisised at £3.8m per year so we had paid £15.2m we then signed a new contract which then spread the remainder of the £4.8m over another 3 1/2 years which is £1.3m a year so we have paid a further £2.6m of him, £17.7m in total plus salary.

 

That how it works?

 

 

 

£21m / 5 = £4.2 m per year

new contract in 22/23 - so 19/20, 20/21, 21/22 count for previous amortisation (three seasons)

£4.2m * 3 = £12.6m amortised
£21m - £12.6m = £8.4m
£8.4m / 4 = £2.1 m per season

22/23, 23/24, 24/25 = three seasons

£2.1m * 3 = £6.3m

£8.4m - £6.3m = £2.1m remaining amortisation

£10m - £2.1m = £7.9m
 

So Almiron would yield around £8m PSR ‘profit’ with a sale.

We absolutely paid those fees, nothing to do with Ashley’s PR this one.  Fees are recorded and paid, they’re on the company books - and the tax man in the US, and Germany would no doubt take great interest if the selling clubs weren’t putting on their books what has been recorded in ours and by all parties. 
 

Edit: if £21m included wages over five years + signing on fee then Atlanta would have been paying us

We didn’t get a visit from the Inland Revenue for nothing 

 

Fair enough but I still have my doubts.

"Atlanta United reached a verbal agreement with Newcastle to buy Miguel Almirón for US$ 12,000,000.

 

The club is negotiating the final details of the player's contract, who is ready to travel and sign."

 

Goodbye sweet prince.

We would also save 3 mill pounds per year on his wages.

I completely understand your skepticism
