So I'm really trying to get my head around who we've had in and who's gone. First, the 'ins'... Michael Laudrup - FREE £2m - Michu £5.5m - Ki Sung-Yueng £5.5m - Pablo Hernandez £2m - Chico Flores £1m - Kyle Bartley loan - Itay Shechter loan - Jonathan de Guzman Undisc - Jamie Proctor About £17.5m plus 2 loan deals. And the 'outs'... £5m * - *Brendan Rodgers £15m - Joe Allen £6.2m - Scott Sinclair Orlandi Bessone Dobbie (maybe) Moreira Scott Donnelly Ferrie Bodde I can't think of anyone else off of the top of my head, but we appear to have balanced the books on the transfers. I haven't added the money from the Premier league because it comes all staggered through the season. I would appreciate all contributions about ACTUAL transfers to this thread to make it the official "WHO ACTUALLY PLAYS FOR SWANSEA" thread. To that end, I would like to keep perspectives and opinions to a minimum to allow for the cold, hard facts of who's in and who's out. I will update the OP with info from later posts.
Very quiet, boring transfer window! Joking aside, I am impressed and more to happen tommorow! Thanks to Sinclair and Orlandi for their contribution.
Cheers KJ, he looks a real prospect. Only concern is there is no mention of this on the Feyenoord site. Hope it's true
With the money we got for Brendan and the backroom staff that puts us at around £10mil profit. Last season we spent £9mil on players which came directly out of our premier league money so this season we are actually £19mil better off so I dont think the extra wages is going to be that much of a strain tbh
LR: Technically you're right but those deals are being widely reported as opposed to Twitter gossip so it looks like they're happening even if not official yet.
Thanks Dill I thought I'd been dreaming that! Therefore we must be one of the best run clubs with a secure footing plus if we stay this year ( 11 more wins after this weekend should do it ) the extra 60 mill should come in handy !
Is Proctor the lad from Preston ? I'm more confused than a Cardiff fan trying to buy a home replica shirt !
Yep forgot we get £6.75m for finishing 11th. We dont get the £40m in one go it is paid in a couple of stages during the season. I think i read we paid £50k for Proctor too btw
OK, I've added a couple of names, amended the money comment and put "almost done" next to Cabral and Hernandez. Good work so far. This is becoming a really useful thread for those (like me) that can't keep up with our off-season.
Practically got a whole new team there. I suppose Monk or Tate can be added to soon. Bound to go out on loan at least. And a few more surprises probably. It's looking very promising though, especially with the younger signings - shows we are also planning for the years ahead.
