What are the PSR rules like on multi-club ownership and transferring between clubs owned by the same person or entity?
 
We must have known in advance so hopefully some deals are just waiting to be ratified... But I do think there's only burstow, Palmer and Kamara you get over a million for - unless a Turkish team buy omur for 5 mil and next month we get a shiny Turkish toy but look like we've overpaid by about 5mil
Never fear we will sell a couple to Maribor to cover it all or one of his friends clubs :emoticon-0102-bigsm .
 
Putting estimated values on players is a pointless exercise imho, a player is only worth what a club is prepared to pay. Those buying clubs will be fully aware of our situation, and will take advantage accordingly, Dublin and his merry team have got their work cut out, to avoid selling some of our more saleable assets.
 
We should still try to reduce how much we’re over the limit, even if we can’t get below threshold completely. The maximum points deduction for PSR breaches in the Championship is 12 points but if you’re less than £2 million over the limit, it’s only a 3-point deduction. Between £2 million and £4 million over the limit and it’s a 4-point deduction.
 
He's played well in the play off winning side I think there'll be plenty interested.

A quick look at a Bolton forum suggests their fans aren’t too bothered about keeping him, he’s not first choice in the current squad and would only keep him if he’s cheap. Doesn’t sound like he made enough of an impact there for them to splurge most their budget on him.

I think there will be interest in him and he’ll go but he won’t generate a big fee.

You could say that again!
 
If we’re £6 million over the threshold, we’d be due a 6-point deduction. The 12-point deduction is only applied when a club is £15 million over the threshold.

Has there been any instances of the PL actually punishing a club for EFL breaches or is it still theoretical? I know the rules changed post-Leicester but I wonder if it would happen. Everyone was saying if Southampton had won the final the PL weren't going to impose a points penalty on them for fear of diluting their own product I wonder if the same would happen here.
