Summer 2024 transfer thread.

Same with Gueye getting a new deal...he won't have clue about budget till the summer.
We won't be buying Harrison mate, there is just no value in that transfer for us. Leeds want around £25m for him, then he will want a 4 year contract (prime age range) so it will be decent money, more than he is on now and he is on decent money atm, and by the time the new season starts he will be 28. As I said there is just no value in it for us and even if Thelwell has to put his foot down and just tell Dyche, 'no, it ain't happening'

We can loan him for free again if they don't get promoted
 
I'm pretty sure that loans work by people giving us money and us then paying that back with interest which involves a regular outgoing payment secured against assets like TV money and season ticket revenue but if you'd like to update me I'm all ears.

Fair enough but theyre able to be paid back over a number of years.

We should be working the transfer market during that time to invest in talent and sell for high profits.

You dont do that by not spending.

But as Chelsea are about to find out, it only works if you buy the right players.

Chelsea have a squad of young players which they paid an utter fortune for, the majority of them dont currently look like they are worth a carrot, so now they have a squad full of mostly tosh and they are tied in to some of them for 7 years and they also dont have any money to buy new players.

Now im sure they will be ok, cos they are on a pure swindle, but your masterplan of putting everything on Klarna and living off the profits only if you buy the right players you can flip.

We got it right with Onana, but the likes of Lookman, Kean and the Boss boy fella, ive forgotten his name, now whilst we got our money back, they didnt generate a profit.

Branners is a total freak of nature, nobody plans to buy a player like Branners.

Now the buying young and putting them on Klarna would have been the play 7 years ago, when we had money to play with, but currently we are up to our eyeballs in debt and floating next to icebergs begging not to be hit.

So by all means, buy young talent, sell whoever we can get money for, but playing Youngster Roulette with future revenue is something we can not afford to do.

Lookman we made money on
Kean we made money on
Onyekuru we made money on
Onana we will make money on
Branthwaite we will make money on
Chermiti we will make money on

If we sell Onana then we need to reinvest that money into 3 new young signings. Lower wages than the outgoing out of contract players.

Which saves the club millions in wages while adding assets onto the balance sheet.

The big mistake this season was not signing Adam Wharton in January or Alex Scott last summer.

Wharton is easily now a £30mil player whose value will only increase.

Signing these profile players who not only improve the balance sheet but also the team makes far more sense than...

...your dreams of failure.
