    Based on what I have read and seen, seems like Leeds has shifted out a number of players.

    Does anyone have a listing of these players, what was paid and the sale price?

    Despite losing on Saiz, seems like some profit was made from others?

    For the golfers amongst us, congrats on a fabulous British Open and Irish win!

    At the minute Jonny we have 23 players out of the door which could be 25 when Nicell formerly announced and BPF to Burnley. We have taken in £20.8m in transfer fees so far. Many of the players released cost nothing except time. Some other kids we made cash on like the 3 we moved to Barnsley for circa £2,5m. We doubled money on Ekuban and will do the same when ideguchi formerly signs for Gamba Osaka. Even the likes of sacko have had to contribute to terminating their contracts. The big losses are really Pontus and Saiz who you would have expected to have made a lot more. Saiz and Pontus cost a total of £6.5m and we sold them for £8m so on paper good biz but not really. The biggest impact will be a wage bill greatly reduced

    Thanks Doc, would be nice to view it in a tabular format if anyone has it that way:

    Player Selling Price Cost Profit (Loss)
    Clarke 9.5m 0.0m 9.5m
    Jansson 5.5m 3.5m 2.0m
    Saiz 2.5m 3.0m (0.5m)
    .....

    Only problem with the analysis, of course, is that a club does not get to keep the full sales price. I believe VAT, player's share and agents fee(s) all come out of it.
