The Incoming Transfers Everywhere Thread: Summer 2023

[The Bear]

Che Adams looks like he's going to Everton for £12m. Not that I'd pay that for him, but it shows our offer of a loan as laughable and also shows what you get for £12m shopping in the English league.

It does improve them though given the very low bar they are starting from

It's a good signing for them because they can't rely on DCL staying fit, or Maupay being in any way competent.

 

[Johnny75]

Don't think Che Adams is any better than Maupay

Don't think Che Adams is any better than Maupay

He is IMO but it's not a very high bar. Maupay is just dogshit.

 

[Tony Towner]

He allows them to play more like they want to in the imaginary world that DCL is ever fit though. Much more Dyche than Maupay, plus he's shot there, the fans despise him

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Maupay is in one of those pits of goalscoring despair where he is getting chances but he just can't finish.

 

[Wolvensam]

Maupay is in one of those pits of goalscoring despair where he is getting chances but he just can't finish.

We feel you Maupay, we feel you.

Our owners really are cunts

Expect him to rock up at 'financial crisis club' Everton or 'FFP threatened' Nottingham Forest!

Expect him to rock up at 'financial crisis club' Everton or 'FFP threatened' Nottingham Forest!

It's a situation where we've clearly agreed the deal and then Fosun have pulled the plug financially on the club.

It makes all the FFP nonsense so transparent.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Yep. He's been proper shafted by us there.

 

[Kenny]

Wasn't the original fee 10m Euros but BM then changed it?

Not that it would have mattered as we clearly were going to struggle to pay the original fee.

No, his release clause was €10m (£7.7m).

We then clearly changed the parameters of that payment (as above) and they told us to bugger off.

 

[Tony Towner]

Yep. He's been proper shafted by us there.

As was Scott who we did exactly the same to, he just had another option

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

No, his release clause was €10m (£7.7m).

He doesn't have a release clause.

We have clearly messed around though and for no good reason.

 

[AndyWolves]

If rumours are to be believed Cresswell is also in a similar position. Although much less sympathy if he's refusing to train to try to force a move

 

[Kenny]

That one is we think he is worth £2.5m and West Ham want £5m

Quite happy for us not to pay £5m for Cresswell.

 

[big mean bunny]

I am happy for us not to pay the 2.5m.

 

[Wolf Hunting]

So, just to be clear, is it correct to say with transfers and wages (around £120 million) wiped off we have cleared all the 'FFP' criteria, and it is simply that Fosun don't want to spend any more money?

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

What were our P&L figures in 20, 21 and 22?

And then what did we spend in Jan?
