Championship Championship Transfers Summer 2024

[holdsteady]

It's all a big con to get around financial fair play. When they sell the player in the first place 100% of the transfer fee goes into that year's accounts as income, when they buy him back the transfer fee is divided by the length of the contract. It's fiddling the books and many PL teams have been doing it recently and it's not going to end well.

All this goes right over my head, but how does spending more money help you out? It is it just a delaying tactic?

 

[Whingit]

Yeah so, for example, a youth player gets sold for £10mill, all of that money goes down as income there and then. A year later they buy him back for £12mill on a 4 year contract and the accountants will put it as a £3mill expenditure every year for 4 years.

It's a short term tactic to not fall foul of the fair play rules, but it just kicks the can down the road.

Aah, cheers, that makes sense. Now I see why prem clubs are swapping youth team players around for decent money. Dirty business football (and accountancy) now.
