I just got thinking (can be dangerous). France's new President, Francois Hollande, could have handed British football clubs a massive boost in the potential signings that could be available. If he delivers on his pre-election 75% tax on earners over 1million euro (approx £850,00) per annum, there will be a lot of wealthy french people worse off.
We can even pay more than they would usually take home, because of the 45% rate we have.
