That word "majority" covers a lot of money one way or the other. Let's hope it's 90%, not 55%.

Burnsy made a post a few days ago about PSR covering total player spending including agents fees. Hopefully the money all clubs spend on those leeches gets cut by a lot.

mdgoonah41 If you head up to the start of the Raya thread you'll find plenty of us predicting we'd end up in this boat with Ramsdale. It's worse for keepers because it's hard to demand a high fee for a guy who will certainly be permabenched except in the case of injuries and suspensions, and its worse still because we renewed Ramsdale on fairly high wages.

    goon possible CL football next year, better chance to win things, etc

        Qwiss he could have played for De Zerbi and live somewhere on the coast, near Marseille and now he has to turn up for Nottingham and the "beautiful" football that Nuno serves up. Poor guy

            Omari Hutchinson - £4M - sell on
            Mark McGuinness - £2M - sell on
            Biereth - £4M
            Brooke Norton-Cuffy- £2M
            Tavares - Obligation £8M
            ESR - £34M
            Nketiah - £25-30M

            Getting the money in, thats around 84 mil, depending on what the Nketiah deal ends up. Now Nelson and Ramsdale...

              HomeSteak Getting the money in, thats around 84 mil

              £42m for Calafiori
              £27m for Raya
              £35m? for Merino

              Are we really going for a close to break even summer?

                  Qwiss

                  Those can be spread over 4-5 years though, all the sales are pretty much pure profit.

                    lorddulaarsenal disappointing up-front fee but hopefully the 'significant' sell-on fee is in our favour.

                    Probably notable that no one better than Deportivo have come in for him...

                      lorddulaarsenal I really think there could be some kind of deadline day madness coming. This all seems too quiet compared to the last couple of years.

                          Really hard to see Nico as the madness when his team has been hyping him (new number, videos, etc) all preseason.

                          They’d look foolish if they now let him leave, and more importantly I think it would lead to a jaded team.

                            Qwiss Can't think of whoever. Unless its Osimhen

                                It is all a bit eerily quiet, as if any further activity is hanging off other moves. Would've thought we'd at least have pinned Merino down by now.

                                Good luck to Patino. It's been apparent he wasn't going to make it for a couple of years, but he seems a good kid anyway. Interesting that his Spain move has this family connection.

                                Clrnc There are a few options. Eze is still there. Kvara as Quincy said. Osimhen. Isak and Guimares are in the same situation they were at the start of the summer. I wouldn't say no to a Sterling loan, not a madness but it'd be a big deal with would strengthen us in a weak are, wouldn't want to sign him.

                                We could also go for potential like Adringa. Brighton have just signed Rutter too, someone could easily go from there. How about a punt on Ferguson again while his stock has dropped, still only 19. Loan with an option would be great business on that.

                                    Qwiss Yeah make sense if you put it this way.

                                    Certainly better than staying still and not trying to improve. Attack/wing would have been my main priority to improve this summer.

                                    I would have been way happier if we put all our eggs in someone like Musiala or Kvaratdona in exchange of not signing Raya, Calafiori and Merino this summer.
