90% in 23/24 not 80%

That 90% which yes is reducing year on year will include wages ( squad) and sums re amortisation and whilst I am not totally sure my understanding is that agents fees are like transfer fees amortised over the term of the contract so as they are shown in the overall amortisation costs aren’t added in twice

The best estimates I have seen is that circa 70% of the total wage bill is attributable to squad costs.

Even then bottom line number in the accounts isn’t the number used .

Read back what I said 80% can be spent in 24/25 season based on a club’s 23/24 revenue that’s this summer coming up not last summer where a team could as you quite rightly pointed out spend 90% in Summer of 23 and winter 23/24 transfers.

The clubs release their accounts with total revenues at the end of June mostly, however UEFA at one point considered talking about basing their numbers on Fiscal year not financial year.

As for Agent fees they are normally paid up front as commission for facilitating the transfer that summer, other intermediary fees are sometimes paid on amortisation, especially when the Agent insists on overseeing the players off field commercial activities, recently FIFA also tried to regulate agents commission’s and lost the case in a UK law.

So yes they are very important in UEFA FSP or EPL new FSP rules this summer and in the future.

Hit perfectly but a meter too high...

Neville is one insufferable prick.

Sort yourself out GNev.

"How's he spotted that?" Probably because he's not got a balaclava on and is just looking?

What is Neville’s obsession with Liverpool and particularly TAA? He hated them as a player but there is absolutely no question he’s got a lot more affection for them now than he has for United.

Does G Nev feel regret for saying how terrible TAA is as a defender and now he overdoes how "brilliant" he is every week as some sort of payback?

It's really weird.
The way he was suggesting TAA is way better than he ever was the other day too and almost hero worshipping him.

This summer transfer window is 24/25 season and only 80% can be spent based on the revenue from January1st to 31st December 2024. It would cost the club more in expenses than 6 European Conference league matches TV revenue would generate!

As I said Chelsea can only spend 80% of their revenue which will probably decrease based on previous season this summer on Wages, Transfer Costs, Amortised transfer and Agent Fees.

Shut up Gary, that's a high foot, dangerous play if ever you saw it.
