We have to pay 25% of any profit to his old club I think.

If we sold him for 80m his old club would be due 11m … add that to the 35 we paid and they would have made 46m from him…. Which is more than we would have lol
20% profit back to Lille and the fee was £33mil.

In terms of FFP its now £26.4mil left on the books.

It appears now that Lavia is £55mil and Caicedo £111mil. The middle is £83mil sell for that less the 20% profit clause and we have £73mil.

If were looking to see how much net profit we clear based on 'the books' / FFP then it would be £46.6mil.

The thing with Onana is as well, like if he went, we are not desparate for a replacement either. Garner, Gana could play in there, Doucoure could drop back and you could shift Iwobi inside. So you have 4 options for 2 positions. At a push Godfrey could fill in. I'm not saying we don't sign anyone, but we are probably best covered for that position.
So currently we have Iwobi on the right and Doucoure in advanced midfield (based on last season).

We have Garner, Onana and Gana in the centre. Meaning we need one addition now to have 4 players for 2 positions.

Sell Onana and we need 2 new central midfielders...and no Godfrey shouldnt be considered or Iwobi / Doucoure.

£80m+ would provide enough balance sheet to square off Lille (unless there is a ‘pay total balance outstanding upon sale of asset’ clause - unlikely). And enough profit/income to sanction the purchase of at least 2 high ceiling assets, one directly to replace Onana… the other wherever.

Plus we can play whataboutisms the other way - what if Onana doesn’t progress? What if he gets injured? Makes more sense to spread risk and also increase profit potentials %age wise
As I wrote above, Lavia - Caicedo...the middle ground is £83mil.

We sold Lukaku for £75mil + £15mil add ons so £90mil lets say.

That would be my thinking, a club record sale over £90mil.


Not at this stage, with the season started. Onana is a key player that we can't lose at this point. Whoever we replace him with would need to be able to go straight into the first team and we would be negotiating in a desperate situation with the other club knowing full well we've just had a windfall, so will overcharge for their player.

Need to stay strong on this one imo.
Agree with this, id prefer to hold onto Onana.

The only way id be tempted at this stage would be at a club record sale £90mil+ with two high quality and high potential players coming in to replace him.

That would have been Scott and Wharton for £40mil combined. Now Scott has moved to Bournemouth already, its going to have to be a similar player.

.
Agree if he was sold this season we would be ok, you'd prob go out and get that lad from Denmark or Wharton who looks a talent - i do feel there is more appreciation in Onana though. When you look at next summer though - we only presently have two Centre midfielders in contract and one is Onana and the other is Garner - its why i say next summer is going to need a big investment.

We would need to sell at £90mil+ which is both a club record fee and also bring in Wharton + 1 to make this worthwhile.

I doubt United have the appetite for that high a deal...rumours all window theyre short on transfer funds to spread around.
 

LOL at everyone who's been freaking out, slamming the club for its transfer incompetence, etc. We're doing well. Three players already in by the start of the season, plus those who've returned from their loan spells. We've not overspent, and we're looking for just a couple more in the next 19 days, which isn't a bad position based on past history, and we've got plenty of targets already lined up.

Perhaps if the club hadn’t shown such an abundance of transfer incompetence in recent years then people would give them the benefit of the doubt?

omg
 
Think we won’t even be looking at a CB until the very end of the window. Seems like the priority now is Gnonto and seemingly either Beto or Etikite depending on who you believe.

Both of the strikers are a apparently being negotiated as loan deals so we’ll obviously only be getting one as Danjuma is already here and that’ll leave us with 2 PL loans which is where I think we’ll find our CB, probably someone like Rob Holding. Hopefully we can utilise that other loan as well, maybe even trying to loan Gnonto with the obligation but I don’t think Leeds would agree to it.
Id actually probably prefer us to get an experienced centre half in his early 30s, someone cheap but dependable who puts in a 7/10 every week and doesn’t commit howlers. Always liked the likes of Craig Dawson for that reason. I’m not saying sign him, but someone of that ilk. A Distin signing basically.
 

Wish I could like this twice. Don't forget blocking the Sergio Romero loan for no reason, even his wife was fuming on Insta.
There will have been a reason from Utd…..we are just not aware of it. Not everyone is out to get ‘poor little Everton’. We should have had a list long enough to have moved on…we didn’t and that‘s why it is purely on us.

Exactly. Usually we don't sign anyone until the last week!!
