Lukaku spotted at St James Park with his agent Sky sports reporting it...heard about it on radio too this afternoon
No worries mate ... we'll keep him for a couple of years then mug some proper mugs off for £90million ...
Long term contracts E.g Mudryk 80 mill 8 year contract £10 mill a year declared in books for next 8 years
The ruling is being or has been changed in that they can sign player for as many years as they want but can only spread the fee over five years Probably find that they will let it go until Chelsea and Man City have completed their deals then make it law to stop anyone else doing it
Think they said it was going to be changed in time for the summer so yeah pretty much after they've got what they want.
Depends what they get? It's all well and good trying to buck the system... unless you're stuck with another Lukaku on an 8 year contract with wages to cough up and if he's ****e, a depreciating value. Massive risk this strategy Chelsea are employing.
Decent player mate. Was someone we wanted at Spurs before Bayern got him, was never gonna beat them to his signature though once they came in.
Fabrizio reporting it's almost done, which bodes well. I know nothing about him and yet I'm relieved bcos it means McTominay doesn't have to play.
Bayern haven't used him properly, they see him as a DM mainly but he's always played better when he's pushed on. I think it was Leipzig he was at before Bayern and he scored and assisted plenty.
Deal done, lets see how he does... At least some thought has gone into this without panicking. Thank fck that **** Woody is out. He would've probably spent the whole day trying to re-sign a half-dead Pogba from midtable Juve for £100m, the prick.
