Everton Summer 2024 Transfer Thread

What the hell?????????

I know.

I actually called something right.

Weird.

You recognise the full profit on sale day 1

You amortise the cost of the signing pro rata over the contract. So say an 8m signing only costs 2m year 1 if its a 4 year deal.

It makes sense for the accounts. But surprised villa want Dobbin.

Goes to be part of a champs league squad.

Bet he's buzzing.

 

[Vintage]

So we’re selling Dobbin for 103 million?
How is this possible.

Matty took over from Thelwell. Shrude operator our matty

 

[Victus]

Get it done before they ban it

 

[Goat]

PSR workaround.

We sign Tim Iroegbunam.

They sign Dobbin.

Then we transfer them back every year.

Every summer we add 20m.

The year is 2031 and Villa have just broken the transfer record with the purchase of Lewis Dobbin from Everton for a fee of 250m.

Us Villa
(Screwing over the Prem)

There's a reason ours is the most played top-flight fixture. You don't get to be that without being crafty.

I’ve been saying for ages these silly deals would happen. For all we know they could be sold back on July 1st.

If as has been reported we are pretty close on PSR this might be enough. It’s clever.

Shame if this happens

Off loaded the entire academy to survive.

I hope 1 day to know this feeling.

Yes although there are 2 separate arguments to that

We've been ran terribly from a financial viewpoint.

But do the rules actually serve any purpose ?

Villa have spent well and got CL football. Its farcical they are now forced to sell before they can try and kick on again.

The rules serve no purpose. Other than maintaining the position of the top 6. And ensuring that when a team outside the top 6 have success (like Villa), they cant just keep spending to maintain their success.

Err, I mean both clubs have spent too much, brought in too little, and now are forced to do stuff like this. As much as I hate PSR let's not pretend the clubs are innocent here otherwise every club in the league would be PSR safe.

From a quick check Villa's net spend recently has been -£80m, -£45m, -£3m, -£100m, -£155m so they very much have NOT spent well

Why stop at 10 million when we need 103

 

[Librarian]

Imagine us doing something clever

We sign Tim Iroegbunam.

They sign Dobbin.

Send him back on loan?

Not sure theres anything wrong with it though anyway.

We want their player and they want our player. And Everton FC and Aston Villa FC are unconnected parties in the transaction.

 

[Sean Ashley]

I did say Dobbin £8m

They have something to show for it. They have champions league football

Teams like Chelsea and United don't and they've spent more.
