Transfer thread

Thanks, chaps. Lotsa play dough left.

The thing that none of the media has mentioned. But an eagle eyed member of sc noticed. We had to get permission from chatered house i believe to do the share issue and also notify them when it is drawn upon. In the application it says £150m for this year. But we have the option to increase it to £300m by 2027.

Edit - companies house, not chartered.

is it all on players or do they go to backroom staff too

The £150m? On and off the field. So no not all on transfers. Ally gold says most of it will be though. But it still doesn't mean how much we can spend. Many transfers will be in installments. Agents fees, signing on fees, sales... but so far we have only drawn £100m of the £150m. So there should be money in the kitty.

So the holding would go from 85% to 87.5% and then to 90% should we take the full £300m?
 
This is what it's meant to say

” The directors are generally and unconditionally authorised to allot shares in the Company and grant rights to subscribe for or grant rights to convert into shares in the Company up to a nominal amount of £300,000,000.00, such authority to expire on 23 May 2027.”
 
Actually I liked this post, but after re-reading it i wouldn’t agree that CB was of highest importance before the window, that was the full back areas for me.

i think now it is of highest importance after all the signings we’ve made so far though.

Our defence is very good but I feel that’s by virtue of our team system as a whole, CM, FB’s as well. If we can add a Bremer and/or Lenglet to the unit and let go of Tanganga and Rodon then it would look awesome.

Fair point
 
Coincidentally I've just been past the Runnymede Hotel, where we usually hold those kind of meetings with prospective/imminent signings (next to Heathrow, private access only to the island). Didn't see anything

Do we still now we have the lodge at the training ground? Why pay for a hotel?
 
So thats

£35m on Bissouma
£60m on Richarlison

£95m already spent. We need a few outgoings.

Carter-Vickers, Winks and Bergwijn should make at least £50m of it, which is no loss to the squad/who they are directly replacing. There's also the impending Ali money to factor in
