At the end of the day it's just up to Bruno. He seems very happy here to me.

 

This. We can do nothing about a player with a release clause, we just have to hope it's A) not triggered or if it is, B) he turns down the approaching club because he's happy here.

 

Beyond that, bugger all we can do. Not worth wasting much energy on.

Compare to other parts of England? Is real estate cheaper in Newcastle?

 

Like is this property at this price is a steal?

 

 

In London it would be closer to £20m.

PSG are set to abandon their interest in signing Barcelona's 26-year-old Netherlands midfielder Frenkie de Jong amid Financial Fair Play concerns. (Sport - in Spanish)

 

If PSG can’t afford De Jong then they can’t afford Bruno. Only City seem to be a likely suitor. Madrid and Barca sniffing around Bernardo Silva.

Going to be laughs where every club needs to sell for FFP reasons but there's no one to sell to because we are all in the same boat.

If he was sold for 100m, what does that actually do for us in terms of spending? Does that mean we have 100m to spend over 3 years? No idea how it works.

 

What a batshit system. Sell your stars to have to rebuild for the next half a decade.

A strong finish to the season with European qualification sets up a completely different summer vibe of positivity. Going to Man U and winning would be the icing on the cake. All the players are obviously aware of how badly injuries have limited potential this season. Most including Bruno will realise that with a fit squad and some additions we will have a very good team again next season. Im starting to think he’ll be here next season now.

Basically means that we can "lose" £105m/3 years (current system) plus about £80m (estimate) from selling Bruno.

 

That £80m to spend isn't on the transfer fee, it's the transfer fee split over the length of the contract, up to five years. So if we signed someone for £50m on 5-year contract it would only "cost" £10m/year plus wages.

 

Added complication is that they're potentially changing the £105m/3yr thing anyway....

Yeah its £105m losses over three years allowing for £30m/year owner "investment" without it the allowable losses are only £15m over a rolling 3 year period. The new changes to squad costs as a % of turnover are much worse as it doesn't allow (at least it looks like that to me with the current information out there) for that investment, just purely what the club "earns"

It’s ok to enquire. I did it once with a supermodel in Marbella. Safe to say that we aren’t married now. Hopefully we told them to get fucked, in the nicest way possible. Also, 80m :lol:

GOONER IN PEACE HERE

 

I would not like this vile human at my club. We only have likeable players, such as Kai Havertz and Partey.
