Whoever he is. I see his name regularly on here. He knows nothing.
There may well not be any issues in relation to UEFAs version of FFP but there certainly could be in relation to the PL version. Where there is a wage cap and in Everton's case that will be about £71 million up by £4 million from last season
I tried to point out to you last week that loan players such as Barry & Lukaka, would not have been on Evertons wage bill last season.
You then quoted the rules relating to the status of players (FIFA) and at the same time quoting from UEFAs FFP and club licensing but its the specific wage restrictions in the PL version that could cause an issue
As I stated earlier a player on loan remain on the payroll of the owning club.The two clubs come to an agreement as to what fee is charged and then the club issues an invoice . Most clubs loaning players out treat this type of income as transfer fee received .
The rules are quite clear in relation as to who pays the player.
10.5 of the FA`s Standardised Rules . These rules are applicable to clubs from the PL down to the Football Conference state (Steps 1-6) and it states :
" Any Club temporarily transferring a Players registration should invoice the receiving club in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement. The player concerned should remain on the payroll of the Club holding his permanent registration for the period of the loan."
The signing of Barry will mean that his wage including any signing on fee, albeit probably considerably less than he received at Man City, will now fully appear as wages in Everton's accounts and should Lukaka sign his wages likewise appear in an area where there is a cap .
