You forget to say that the Kakuta fine/ ban was overturned. As it was proven that Lens didn't have a contract with the player at all. Yet another cock up from FIFA
What is interesting is that in the last 10 years Chelsea have either released or given free transfers to 61 players, Everton 45 but the winners are Arsenal on 75. 25 last season alone.

Chelsea sold Lukaku to Everton because they needed to for FFP
Not cos we offered them top dollar and the player wanted to go then?
I didn't forget. I chose not to mention that.
Lens did have a contract. It was not in the proper form and thus overturned in the courts. Not UEFA's fault. Only the courts could decide if a player-club contract was legal. As its a private law agreement.
However the principle is clear.
Chelsea have "stockpiled" by sucking up youth players from across Europe. At a higher rate than virtually anyone.
Oh and you know nothing about FFP.
He's not having his medical until next weekI bet this deal won't be confirmed till monday!
