Very risky over 3 years.

If we don't get Champions League then he'll want off long before we've even paid for him in full.

Yeah but we'll get a fat wedge for him to make up for it.

We've had so many loans our fans are forgetting you're allowed to sell the players you do buy.

Barkeley signing a contract extension was one of Rom's conditions! He didn't believe Bill when he said it was done (who could blame him) so we had to do a press conference to convince him.

Lol, over 3 years. Just pay the man, Bill.

At a stretch something like 15 mil upfront and the rest next summer.

What are Chelsea going to do with 3 x 8mil payments?

The spent 82mil on 3 players this window, 8mil wouldn't even register to Mourhino

Generally the EPL payments are over 3 years anyway??

so basically were loaning him for 3 years + making profit at the end. smart move

All payments are spread out over a set number of years, it's just how it works. Real Madrid will still owe Spurs money for Gareth Bale

Typical cheap Everton going for Romelu's £500k rated brother.

Nothing wrong with wanting to spread the fee, as I recall the last time we paid a big fee in full for a striker he got injured in his second season for a year and ended up being sold further on for a pittance. Do we really want to gamble £24m in one go and pray it won't happen again?

Exactly. And its sensible from Evertons point of view, because it probably still gives us more to spend in this window, on a couple of £4 million ish players and a couple or three loans.
