Transfer Rumours Transfer Rumours thread

I went searching myself because the link you posted refers only to the Championship where different rules apply.

 

The title is misleading. The first sentsence says:

"This season (2016/17), new ‘Profitability and Sustainability’ rules operate in the Championship; for the first time, clubs will be assessed over 3 seasons (rather than just a single season). This change brings the Championship clubs into alignment with the Premier League – both have ‘Profit and Sustainability’ rules that are now fully aligned."

 

Must admit I only read the title, went looking and found that the rules are now the same for both as you've just pointed out

 

Griezman has told atletico he will leave in the summer. Not sure how he can just tell them unless has some kind of clause in his contract?

Lots of rumours about Barca last summer, reckon it’s on the cards now? Maybe similar to Suarez where they say give us 1 more year then you can go? United were also linked but can’t see him going there now

 

That's the value as an asset, not the cost for FFP purposes.

 

Apparently 104m euro release clause, Barca ready to pay it.

 

Define ‘book value’. After paying for an asset, you can define the book value as you wish. If it’s more....woop woop and thank you....

 

The book value is the transfer fee you paid less amortisation. That e.g. again - a £50m player on 5 year deal after a year has a book value of £40m.

 

Ok, yes. So after 5 years, VvD has a book value of zero. If we sign him up to a be w5?year deal, his book value would still be zero. If we give him a be contact after 2 years his book value will be the remainder of his contract 3/5 or £45m/ number of years the contact is for. Correct?

 

I hope the whole summer isn’t gonna be a business lesson on here?

 

All of which is irrelevant because it's about not outspending your income, not your asset value.

 

Wasting your pixels mate, some have no idea what FFP is

 

Meaning they can't buy de ligt

 

That legit?

 

Your income is different to your operating income. Much different.

 

Nah probs leshit tbh

 

I think most understand FFP broadly. What I struggle with is how football finances in general work. Normal business, yes, easy. Football; no f#cking idea tbh

 

Completely different from company finances mate, FFP is about sustainable outlay not assets, depreciation or anything else. In other words nothing to do with the value of the business but more to do with cash flow. Can you afford £100m over the next 3 years and will you still be able to meet the wage bill, vat, running costs of the ground etc out of the cash expected in.
Bolton are probably worth more than their debts but have no cash to pay them, they might have spread the "value" of their latest additions over several new contracts but still had to pay for them within an allotted time (usually 3 years but sometimes cash on delivery).

 

120m Euros

Spanish clubs have to have release clauses in player contracts. I believe its part of Spanish law.

Same way Neymar was able to go to PSG.

 

Sky says 104 but what’s 16m to friends. And yup every spanish contract has to have release clause. Seems quite low for griezman given they normally have a release of about 700m
