Right, people will take that into consideration when ONE player is being bought for a price in which you could probably buy clubs!
That is not the point anyway.
So Barcelona gets a huge fecking fee for Neymar. They in turn take everyone left on Monaco who has talent (Mbappe, Fabinho, anyone else?) with the money. PSG spends a lot of cash to weaken their rival, gain a great player, hmmmmmm. But I suck and conspiracies, so their a huge holes in this logic of course.
...including wages over 5 years! (not including any contract extensions)
I'd be disappointed if we didn't throw our hat in the ring. Maybe we did, who knows.
If Psg have any intentions of remaining within ffp maybe 100m would persuade them about verrati?
How is it not beyond PSG?
Apparently with wages, signing bonuses and agent fees included.
Plus 5 years of 60 mil in wages NET if I read it correctly.
It turns out Using slave labour to build infrastructure is a really good money saver.
Because a company worth £3bn is nowhere near as powerful as a club owned by a multi-billionaire who is willing to pump money in to the club.
Oil > All the noodle, wine and tractor partners in the world
To be fair if you had told me that Neymar is going to move this summer, PSG would have been one of my first guesses. Still I expected a lot more hoopla around the transfer. Assuming all of this is true of course.
A bit of holy feck moment in all honesty as much as whatever you mention is true.
That is the point. The two clubs arent fighting over the transfer fees. The whole point of these big release clauses is to deter clubs from bidding from your player. But if a club says feck it and they will just pay the release clause there isnt much you can do. Doesnt mean its similar to two clubs haggling over the transfer fees.
This actually has legs, doesn't it?
I get that they are rich, but they still have to balance the books for FFP, no?
Because their owners have stuck a flag in trillions of pounds worth of their countries oil and claimed it for themselves.
Because they are owned by a bloody country, basically. Not a business person, oligarch or company, basically owned by an oil producing country, like the light blue shite down Stockport way.
CANNOT be net wages. Thats around 100m in wages alone per year. Has to 60m gross.
We'll know if this is true or not by tomorrow. Barcelona are scheduled to leave for the US on their pre season tour Wednesday.
Why are we not all over this.
Couldn't give two shits about the money, looks like he is getable and if we miss out to PSG then I will seriously question our transfer strategy.

I don't think so, only net adds up to half a billion if I understand correctly. It's an absolute bomb.
It seems none of you lot got what I actually meant with my post. 
How is it not beyond PSG was me saying that although they have all the money in the world, they still have to conform to FFP

What FFP? It was done away with after a few large bulging envelopes changed hands.
He got 20 goals and 27 assists in all competitions last season, not to be dismissed man.
It hasn't been done away with though, otherwise why did Inter need to make X amount of millions the other week?
I love ffp, that rule really changed things!
French taxation for higher earners is 80% or so?
That's why Monaco get away with what they do. If it really is one million a week net there must be some shady image rights deals involved......
Wow
PSG just destroyed the transfer market for the rest of us.
PSG just destroyed the transfer market for the rest of us.No when someone says they earn $50,000 it doesnt mean they earn that net. It has to be gross.
Maybe he doesn't want to play in England?
He'll do well to get 33% of those assists without Messi and Suarez banging them in for fun.
Wow! fecking hell.. Don't think we can afford that..
Looks like happening
I believe the plural form of him is a Perisi.
Is FFP still in practice?
Neymar would dick Ligue 1. He'd easily put up Zlatan numbers as PSG's main man.
Some other poster earlier showed how it would all add up to half a billion, I'm not that invested to be honest, except that if Castles reported something of this scale, maybe it's true and if so, that is bloody mind boggling.
He's still immensely overrated. A classic example of a player whose brand is brighter than his performances.
if he was likely to emulate messi or ronaldo then this transfer could make sense but are people convinced he's got that much more to his game? he is undoubtedtly gifted but im not convinced there is much more to come.
and the flip side of stepping out of the shadow of messi is that all the attention that was directed at stopping him play (and suarez) now gets pointed directly at neymar.
