I don't really understand how we're spending ££ on players like Varane and Celar.
As I understand it when the accounts for last season are published we will be extremely close to breaking FFP. Hence all the odd sponsorships last season - Bhatia stand etc. That's because our 'good' year (2022 - £4m loss) in the 3-year rolling average drops out and we're left with accounts from Aprils 2023 (£24m loss before deductibles), 2024 (£20m loss before deductibles), and 2025 (unpublished - last season).
Transfers from this window will fall into the April '26 accounts, so hard to know what's changed. The Armstrong money alone isn't it. Could be impact from new Sky money? Does make me wonder if Palace have purchased out the Eze sell on fee for a fixed advance. Or maybe a slight gamble from us before JCS and/or Chair are sold?
