We'llNeverBeMastered Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 What on earth do we do with £800k a year in instalments? What seemed good business is now awful business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Can people saying £5-6m for Joao is a good deal please give the name of another Championship striker aged 25 or below who's scored 20 league goals in the last 2 years and is available for £6m or less?

If we sign Hector say for £3-4M now Reading have taken some of the fee off then we'd pay that over the length of what would presumably be a 3-4 year contract. We'd not be paying millions upfront.

Kemar Roofe has scored 29 in the last 2 years and is being sold for £7M. Some of that is going to go to West Brom too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evaD Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Can't say I'm looking forward to seeing them go up in the automatics with João top scorer I just hope we offload Winnall or Rhodes as well and bring in a replacement.

jamsandwich Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 (edited) all these transfer charlies on here. when you SELL - you recognise as much of the transfer fee as possible as soon as possible. when you BUY - you recognise the fee over the life of the contract it looks better in the books. Thats why the whole Rhodes saga was a mess - because if we sell him for less than we bought him for then it looks terrible in the books 800k upfront plus the rest on performance is a terrible deal for Joao. The only benefit is it gets his wage off the books. Edited August 6, 2019 by jamsandwich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure, that figure seems to be what their journos are reporting down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
