Same could be said for every player anyone signs ever. This is why players have contracts, it's protection for them as much as for the club. It's why this Isak bollocks is so frustrating.

A new contract for Isak would've certainly broken the structure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The player you break you're wage structure for doesn't matter, it just matters that it happens. Also, I'm fairly sure the numbers quoted are wrong anyway. Bruno is the highest earner on £160k. So we wouldn't be breaking it by paying Ramsey £125k Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 £125k wouldn’t be breaking our wage structure like. Not saying we should definitely give him that, but we’ve got players on more (as have Villa I would have thought). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KetteringMag Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 I think everyone needs to stop wetting the bed , we haven’t even been in talks for 24 hrs yet … it’ll happen but villa aren’t going to let us play him on the weekend are they Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HayDen Traces Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 Is £125k p/w more than Gordon's latest contract? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 Howe made a point last week of saying our wage bill was much lower than the top teams, not sure if he was trying to make a point but it did seem so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pata Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 £125k a week is perfectly reasonable for someone like him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second highest earner now alongside Joelinton, I believe. £125k puts him on par with Tonali and Trippier. Which isn't crazy, he'll probably play more than Trippier and you'd imagine Tonali is due a new contract soon to bump up his wages, especially if he has a season like last.

They are selling him now rather than next June because he won’t sign a new contract and will only have 1 year left at the end of the season. It’s value led rather than strictly PSR. No team needs sales for PSR in August Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
