80 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 2 minutes ago, Skeletor said: Well they've never been one to sell their major assets in any venture. Also this club bluffs a lot these days, so saying we need to sell to buy could just be a negotiating tactic. PIF you mean? To be fair, they've never worked in an industry with weirdly corrupt, profit limiting rules before where they're not the ones rigging the rules. To be clear, I'm not saying they're up to some Mike Ashley-style smash and grab to earn a few quid. But I could imagine them taking the view FFP means we need to move Bruno on, but also thinking the fans are too thick to understand that decision, and concluding they need to implement some preventative PR crisis management in advance.

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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucasol Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 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.

Fatwax Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 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" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0cafella Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Source is Bein Ben, so can safely ignore. I’m not sure where this 80m figure comes from when the clause is 100 too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 (edited) It’s ok to enquire. I did it once with a supermodel in Marbella. Safe to say that we aren’t married now.
