It probably is, but it also seems like a reasonable excuse to get rid of a fan favourite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not complaining as I think both would be cracking signings) I don’t think it’s as simple as people make out when they say things like 30m in means we can buy 3 players for 50m over 5 years (as this year the cost of the 50m player is just 10m). This doesn’t take into account the following years accounts when 30m does not come in. I guess either commercial revenue needs to keep going up or players need to be constantly sold to make up for a short fall. I’m probably missing something though.

(Not complaining as I think both would be cracking signings) Think the simplest way my head makes sense to it all is every penny we have now goes on balance sheet this year but every spend can be stretched up to 5 years. Like buying a car on finance you don't need 30k now you need 6k now. Pushes the spending into the future so your balance sheet is still suffering for years into the future but allows you to spread it and do more with less money on a single year. This only becomes a problem when you have maxed out what you can do year or year as all the transfers gone by are still coming off that year's ability to spend I.e. Everton.

St1pe Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 £30m seems like a lot given his injury but a good signing nonetheless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 30m will be the "Southampton" price. It will likely be full of add ons and installments, given his age. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 If he’s over his injury, 30 million is an excellent price. Comes in and learns from Trippier and could easily be our RB for the next 10 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
