Understand it's only a 2 year deal, so gives a decent boost to current numbers but also will not be long to arrange a bigger deal once hopefully two seasons of CL football are under the belt to justify a bigger number. Apparently there was an offer of 22m for 5 years on the table too so this seems like a good outcome I think. 

Random Wednesday brainfart. Back in April 2023 I'd heard that the Sela deal was for 2 years initially - which would mean it's coming up for renewal this summer already. When it was announced, it was simply called a 'multi-year deal' which could mean anything. If the two years is true (and I believe it was given where it came from), would we expect an increase and more PSR headroom next season? Or same terms? Given the partnership so far feels pretty successful, it feels like one we'd probably be keen to extend. Curious if anybody heard anything about where we stand?

Things may have changed now with Man City’s case meaning the Premier League have to prove it’s not FMV. Maybe now we might go for a bigger deal with one of the bigger names that PIF are involved in. Their new airline is launching this year as well.

 

I think we’ll keep Sela on regardless as a secondary sponsor. They have worked well with us in terms of the shirts for deaf fans, the fanzone etc, and the club will be lean to work with them in regards to our new stadium, and it’s facilities.

I swear that’s one of burnsie’s 500 accounts/personalities. Layout of the tweets are the same. If it is him. I’d take tweet this with a pinch of salt 

It’s reported in the Chronicle, he’s just aggregating news stories without providing the source so people think he’s ITK.

Wouldn’t FMV have made that a non starter?

No, if there was no direct link to PIF (ie they are private companies) and / or there are multiple bids then there is no issue under the rules.  KSA companies could have done this at any time.

That would have triggered an emergency meeting no doubt.

Sounds like something he would do. 
 

wouldn’t be surprised if he’s another account that comments on all of that one disagreeing with it.

Hard to see how that would or could’ve been blocked - if you don’t allow competitive market tenders what can you allow?  Or bids from the same nation as the owners - can’t see that being popular.

 

PIF haven’t even used their position within KSA to ‘encourage’ these kind of deals.  Everyone seems to be waiting for the dominos to fall and then they spring into action.  To date, that hasn’t occurred.

He does. He has one attacking journalists and other accounts, then one defending them and calling out his alt accounts.

He’s a fucking freak, and it’s shocking to think that he’s a father.

The general rule of thumb for any account that shares ‘NUFC news’ without having someone actually show their face, then it’s one of his accounts.

Like anyone else on here you have no idea what PIF have or haven't done with regards to sponsorhip, nor what the PL have done to block deals.

I imagine you won't find many Saudi companies large enough to sponsor a major PL team without ties to PIF.

The PL cannot block sponsorship deals which pass both the APT and FMV rules.  
 

Simply not true - ‘ties’ don’t matter.  KSA has a significant private sector.  The rules are absolutely clear - they are pretty much standard procurement rules for proving FMV; multiple quotes.

 

Any idea that PIF couldn’t leverage this is daft.
