Everton Transfer Thread - Summer 2020

No.

What is Financial Fair Play?
In addition to Company Law, the Premier League has its own Rules relating to club finances, accounting and good governance.

The Premier League, Football League and UEFA each has its own regulations governing club finances. The most widely known FFP policies are probably UEFA’s. These pertain to the licensing system for teams who wish to take part in European club competitions.

The Premier League has a number of financial rules in place, including requirements for clubs to pay transfer fees, salaries and tax bills on time. They must also submit accounts annually, and disclose payments made to agents. You can read these regulations in full in the Premier League Handbook, primarily Section E: Club Finances.

Outside of these obligations it is up to individual clubs, who all have their own directors and senior executives, to make decisions over how they spend their income.



Wolves don't have European football next season and they still have to comply with :

Wolves have agreed to report "a maximum break-even deficit of €30m (£27.1m) in the financial year ending in 2020 and to finally reach, in the 2021/22 season, an aggregate break-even result for the financial years ending in 2019, 2020 and 2021".
So, I've just had a read of section E of the handbook and I've got to say that is as clear as mud. I'm certainly not a legal professional but that is a supremely vague document. There also appears to be no specific sanctions detailed in the handbook.

Have the PL made any comments on altering their regulations as a consequence of the Rona? I know UEFA have essentially made 2020 a dead year but have the PL?
 
Forgive me if I am being incredibly naive but is FFP exclusively an issue for clubs in UEFA competition? If so, if we finish 8th next year do we get another year to comply?

No, people talk about FFP, it’s not relevant to us unless we’re in Europe. It’s the PL Cost and sustainability rules that most impact and concern us, it’s the three year rolling rule of losses not exceeding 105 mill. It’s PL based not Uefa.

What have the PL said about 2020 and the fallout from Covid? I would imagine the downstream loss of broadcast revenue and the loss of gate revenue may push multiple clubs close to a breach, has there been any slackening of the rules?

Most likely will follow Uefa lead or actually lax things more then Uefa, in my opinion. It’s not in the PL interests for the PL to go through hardship. Turkeys & Xmas and all that.
 

Yes and all the players out of contract next summer(Besic, Walcott, Sandro, Bolasie) and we will probably be selling a Digne or Richy next summer if we are honest.
There will be a lot more than those gone at the end of this, you have about 6 or 7 of the under 23's that will go.
Plus any on fringes of are squad will be at risk, i expect at least a dozen gone from the club by this time next year, one or two of the big earning players that are in the first team squad as well likes of Bernard and Kean cant be safe either.
It will all add up to a tidy sum.

Can't wait to see this tit crying that we've ruined the window again tomorrow, the complete berk!

UTFT!
 

Made up quality additions to the midfield all around, defensive strength, class and good range of passing in Allan. Creativity and goals in James. And now so pace and power in Doucoure.

I’m all for making signings that are part of a longer term outlook but first and foremost you look at what the team needs to improve on the previous season and try and acquire the best you can.

With these 3 we can play it cool and try get a few more out of the door. The manager has enough to work with going into the season so Brands can do his job addressing the less pressing positions (RB, RW) with less pressure.
 
Just need a striker with the quality to knit it all together in attack now.

Shame that the Metquarter isn't good enough for Giroud's wife.
 
My US friend keeps telling me about Diego Rossi of Los Angeles FC.

Not rumours but singing the praises of the Uruguayan 22 year old. I keep telling him it's a turd league but he is convinced he'll be amazing. MLS are convinced he'll be the next huge signing for someone in Europe.

He is very Suarez-like in terms of movement not racial prejudice. Any other US Blues seen him.


He’s decent. Mid table la Liga for me. Think his teammate, Atuesta, will have a better overall career.
