Kieran Trippier: has a chance to play against Everton (Howe)

[Ste]

Absolutely will not happen in January. 

[Izakaya]

If he goes this month then something pretty serious has happened in his private life. Seems like he's fucked the job big style. 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Not a chance we are getting Kimmich in place of Trippier

 

 

[duo]

Sorry but  ridiculous story.

Just logged in, checked this thread first................................and am I the only one thinking that we're going to end up looking like that Milan fan when the Tonali rumours started here?

[Conjo]

I was expecting Trippier to have another season here before making way for Livramento and move into a role in the backroom staff. The guy is 33 so from a sporting perspective it wouldn't be the end of the world if there's a good deal to be made, but he's personified our return to the top so would be very sad if he wasn't involved with the club in some capacity for years to come.

I can tell you, from very close to the horses mouth, that this story is complete bullshit. Bayern may very well be interested, but he’s 100% not leaving and we would not remotely entertain the idea.

[Ikon]

I’d be content with Musiala…Not to be greedy but I’d be more content with Wirtz from BL. 

[Kanj]

[Kanj]

Wirtz would be a dream signing but I’d honestly pass out if we signed Kimmich. Kimmich in means Bruno out imho. They basically do the exact same thing. 

[duo]

Prior to his little dip - wasn't trips statistically the best right back in the world?

[Chris_R]

Sorry, Kimmich?

 

Is there anyone actually reporting that, or has someone on here just put 2 and 2 together? What have I missed?

That's exactly what I was thinking aswell.

Imagine a midfield of Bruno, Tonali and Kimmich next season though 

[Gottlob]

If we sell Trippier to Bayern for £20 million on a three-year contract by my own reckoning the amorterisation alone gives us £60 million to spend. That could buy four players worth £60 million on four year contracts or six players worth £60 million on six year contracts. It's an absolute no brainer, though I'm not sure Trippier's missus would be best pleased as every Oktoberfest he might find himself up to his ears in buxom Bavarian beauties!

we could do the same with Longstaff.

 

Keep Trips but to have a genuine battle with Tino for the number 2 slot next season before yielding in 2025 to being backup and use the longstaff cash to beef up centre mid and right wing

If we're selling Longstaff I'd hope for something in the region of £30 million on a five-year contract. With the amortisation added, the amount we'd have to spend would beggar belief no less than it would defy expectation.

People need to stop with this bullshit. This isn't how it works.

 

Sure, sell Trippier this year for £20m and we get a £20m FFP boost. But IF we sign someone for £60m over 6 years, sure that's only a £10m hit to FFP this year. So we could sign 2 of them, of course.

 

But the problem is that next year we've got to fund another £10m towards this transfer. Or £20m if we've signed 2. And the year after. And so on, for 6 years. We can kick the can down the road, sure, but eventually all these cans we've kicked down the road will become a massive fucking problem. People keep acting as if we can use selling players as some kind of FFP cheat code but it really doesn't work that way.

We've moved on from that now. We're talking about selling Longstaff for £30 million over a five year contract. Taking amortaniseation into account, that gives us £150 million to spend as a lump sum to do as we wish.

[NWMag]

I don’t think amortisation matters with outgoings. 
 

if we sell longstaff for £30 million, our profit show 30 million instantly, regardless of how long a contract his new club gives him. 
 

Amortisation only applies to incomings.

The length of contract for players you sell is irrelevant when it comes to amortisation

Sorry, but not a word of this is remotely accurate.
