McCormick Posted January 29, 2024 Share Posted January 29, 2024 Above 50m gor Ramsey is steep, but that’s the market for young English talent. 10mish more could get you MGW though, who’s clearly a better player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Villa pretty much broke even on a cash basis for transfers that year and then a net £100m (ish) in the 2 years since they will be coming up to the same barrier we have this year. I think they will need to sell someone for decent cash in 2024/2025 (be it summer 24 or Jan 25) if they want to invest for next year. Even with CL cash Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted January 29, 2024 Share Posted January 29, 2024 Well they've sold Chukwuemeka (£25mil), Aaron Ramsay (£12mil), Archer (£18mil) just in recent years too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted January 29, 2024 Share Posted January 29, 2024 (edited) Yep they got money for Philogene and Azaz this year too both from their academy And they got decent money from us for Targett and got £18mil for Danny Ings. Both obviously not academy products but certainly isn;t the reckless spending of some clubs Edited January 29, 2024 by joeyt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted January 29, 2024 Share Posted January 29, 2024 Brentford have reached an agreement with Club Bruges to sign coveted winger Antonio Nusa. They are now working to finalise the 18-year-old’s proposed transfer, but at this stage, it is not done. Until the ink is dry, nothing counts — especially when Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea have also been pushing. Newcastle are admirers but already have two left-wingers and Liverpool like him but cannot do anything until there is clarity over their new manager and sporting director.

The point still stands that the big sale they had drops out of the calculations after this year and they have a net £100m spend from the last 2 years to consider regardless of the sales. They are by no means in any risk of a FFP breach this year, but if they want to buy biggish again this summer they will need to sell to balance up next years FFP. If you are flying in the top 4 without using a £50m rated player and want to fill a gap elsewhere it becomes a fairly obvious sale. The whole league is also going to have to work with the fact that very few teams now can afford £30-£50m on other clubs academy players and this route to boosting FFP headroom will reduce pretty quickly now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mighty__mag Posted January 29, 2024 Share Posted January 29, 2024 Ramsey, incorrect. One interesting thing he said was, you're way off, could that mean he's saying in terms of how we've done deals in the past, with very under the radar deals? Nevertheless, I was convinced we wouldn't move anyone, or sign anyone, but now, I'm not so sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 29, 2024 Share Posted January 29, 2024 This just goes to show what a pile of shite FFP is like. No way should a club having their best season for over 30 years be needing to worry about selling one of their best Academy products just to suit FFP. Let them crack on trying to be the best club they can be. It's a joke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
