We don’t need to worry about spending money, no one should, if anyone complains, just cite Barcelona as the example, bought Raphina for £55 million, Lewandowski for over £40 million, won’t pay De Jong the £17 million they owe him.

It's just been announced by Sky Sports Italy, its not been announced officially yet and he is current unavailable after having knee surgery two months ago.
Well Sky had it up on their site a month or so ago, knee surgery or injury, couldn’t remember, but I know he’s supposed to be out until January anyway!
 
I don't understand where the FFP talk is coming from. We've just sold KLP for at least £16m, and had one of the lowest wage bills in the league last year. Yes, some of the wages for the new players will be much higher but the wage bill still shouldn't be mad. It's like they're saying that we were reliant on selling KLP to fund the new arrivals but there appeared to be no rush or desire to let him go.

FFP doesn't come into play unless there's 39m losses above income in a rolling 3 years.

The fact its being discussed means we must be planning to spend over and above the KLP fee by close to 39m in the rolling period. If we were just investing what we get for KLP it would be net zero, the fee being counted as both income and expenditure on the same FFP balance sheet, surely?

I don't know how someome can see mention of FFP and conclude that we're only spending/reinvesting the KLP fee as FFP would be irrelevant if that was the case.
