How does it work, though? Does part of the fee count towards FFP immidiately? And if so, it's just going to be around 1/5th of it, right?

 

 

 

I would pressure if someone wanted to pay the release clause they would have to stump it up before the 30th June.

We're about to witness pure loads of Freud here like

With FFP/PSR selling players counts fully and immediately, amortisation is for purchases only

Can we please not make vague comments like "Linked with City again" as if it could be Ornstein saying it when in reality it's a bunch of pathetic people on a dying platform?

[Paulinho]

Baffled at the suggestion he wouldn’t go to another English club. People really do swallow the PR fluff.

Especially when Villa are in the Champions League. 

[Groundhog63]

If he goes I hope it's sorted before the Memberships come up. 

Might not bother 😉

 

 

 

 

 

Ps be gutted if he goes. Football is fucked but, more importantly, he's our talisman.

Do you really think the club who are forced to sell one of their best players to comply with FFP are in a position to bid 100 million for Bruno?

[AyeDubbleYoo]

One tweet from a random bloke results in three pages of worry. It’s odd.

He's shite. Worst signing of the Pep era according to my Manchester supporting friend.

Discussion re Bruno……makes sense, lets hope case goes on a bit longer, past June.

Amazed it took 12 days for this to kick off.

I get this and agree he’s not going to stay forever out of a love for the club. Money, Silverware etc all matter to players. 
 

I would just absolutely hate to see him turned into a City Automaton. Peps already made Grealish, Haaland and others much less entertaining to watch.

Theres people been here 15 years falling for TBG on this page so daily fallouts should be expected

 

Edit: Got to love the 'how does this affect FFP/PSR?' comments though, not like they arent answered every day on every thread ha

Hostage!

I know he's a pro and wants to win things, but would he be happy just being a cog in a machine without the adulation? He'd obviously be popular if he does well but he's practically hero-worshipped here.

 

He's one of the best in the world where he is, still playing at the highest level, and his family seem settled and happy. I know City for instance could give him another £100k a week or however much but I'm leaning more into thinking he'll stay, unless we feel we have to sell due to FFP to sign 2-3 other top players.

Don't think we'd need to. Reckon he stays and adopts Joelinton instead.

I've had jobs where I've been paid more and been miserable, I'd 100% sacrifice money over happiness all day long. Bruno is clearly on top of the world here but who knows how he sees it, only him I guess.

 

I don't think he'd be anyway as close to as happy as he is here, but to some that's not everything. Anyway, it's all conjecture until it's fact so I'm not worrying about what isn't material.

[Charlies]

I’m still worried he hasn’t dismissed the Villa talk

Another PL club yes, Villa no, he does actually seem to like it here.  That might not be enough to keep him from Man City, but I see no reason why he'd be making a big change for a club like Villa.  Of course if we wanted to sell him I've little doubt, but as a release clause I think he'd need a good offer to move.

Yeah and next season when Villa don't qualify he can look for another team temporarily in the CL to move to, us probably..

I thought the release clause was inserted in case Barcelona or Real Madrid wanted Bruno.
