That makes sense, and I don't know who said it above, but someone suggested it would be amortized, so say £6 million per year, and Roma pays everton a loan fee of £6 million, making it a wash for PSR purposes.

Rarely, taking a massive pinch of the finest Italian salt with this, unless Bobble, Joyce or Paddy confirm it

Seems a bit stupid when we (a) need a RB and (b) do not have much money with which to purchase half a squad. Obviously, it's likely nonsense, but it really doesn't make sense.

On a (very) basic level maybe. Obviously if we buy the lad for £30m, loan him to Roma, he breaks his leg in his first game and is never the same player again then it very much does have an impact on Everton as we pay a bloke for 4 more years and...

Why wouldn’t Roma just buy him though? It would cost them £6 million plus wages for the year PSR wise regardless. And I don’t see them just giving him back to us after a year - it is their coach that wants him.. Sounds like nonsense tbh.

Our accounts very literally have changed overnight (from a PSR point of view)

I don’t get why if Roma’s manager wants the player he would be satisfied with only having the player for a years loan. Seems to me there would be some sort of shenanigans to come which would end up them keeping the player and we’d end up being...

Not sure I see the logic in that. For FFP and Roma, it would be a wash as well. Neither club benefits or loses in that scenario financially.

It's a player that Gasperini, now head coach at Roma, wanted to sign when he was at Atalanta. Roma and a lot of other clubs seems interested now. And with so much interest, it will be difficult for them to do "loan with mandatory purchase next...

Our accounts aren’t going to transform overnight - unless a very big PSR manoeuvre is on the way.

But look at our right back options - we don't need a Brazilian international RB to develop 😂

But we lose £30 million of our summer budget which is tight and needs to be spread on about 8 players. Would be crazy.

We’ve been looking around the free market to plug a hole at right back because the money we do have, needs to be spent on forwards. Fair enough. If we then spent 30m on a right back to give the new Roma manager what he’s requested because they...

I’ll worry about this negatively affecting us when Moyes resigns… because if we’re doing it and it does, he will

I’d deduct 10 points from us myself if we spent £30 million on a player we hand over to Roma.
