Jhon Lucumi - Transfer Rumour


Release clause had to be in 1 payment rather than spread out in instalments, so much worse for us in terms of cash flow and PSR
Don’t think it would affect PSR at all would it?
The transfer fee is amortised over the length of the contract up to a maximum of 5 years regardless ow whether we pay in instalments or not.
Additionally KLD set up a credit facility for the club, which means he could pay an upfront fee for a player using that, and then the club could pay that back in instalments.
 
If we've increased it to that wonder why we didnt just pay the release clause earlier on when it was stil active.
Every one likes to haggle. If we thought we might save a few mill at the time we’d be mugs not to. Very easy to advise people how to spend THEIR money
 
So now our first team squad looks a little like

Roefs/Patterson

Hume/Mukiele

Reinildo/Cirkin/Masuaku

Ballard/Alderete/Lucumi/ O Nien?

Xhaka/Sadiki/Diarra/Le Fee/Rigg/Neil

Adingra/Talbi/Roberts/ Mundle

Mayenda/Guiu/Isidor


24 man squad there. Allowed 25, and honestly looking at it I can't see which position we'd go for. I'm all for putting faith in the front 3, why wouldn't you when two of them have just scored in the opening day, if a striker is to be replaced though it'd be Isidor. 4 strikers in a squad for one position just wouldn't work.
 
I genuinely don't think we need him now. We've got Alderete, O'Nien and Reinildo who can play on the left side of defence... Possibly Cirkin too at a push.
Use the money for him and the winger money and just get amad. Seriously it makes perfect sense!
I think if we end up with Reinildo or Cirkin at centre half we will have needed Lucimi.

I think cirkin or and Roberts might go and we'll bring in another striker and winger
Can we sticky the post regarding PSR and them wanting the release clause in one payment?
🤣🤣🤣
