The summer 2013 Everton transfer rumourZ thread

Presuming Honda doesn't want to take a pay cut we'd have to pay him at least £60k a week to match what he's earning in Russia, due to our income tax structure being different to the Russian one. That's around £3m a year.

So if we have £10m to fund the purchase and wages of new players, then it's enough for Honda and ONE free transfer along the lines of Alcaraz, OR Honda and a loan with no fee and a max of £40k p/week wages.

£10m doesn't get you many players if you have to pay their wages from it too.

We've lost £2.5m p.a. off the wage bill with Neville's departure, there'll be the saving on Moyes £65k per week, as well as Mucha & der hammers departures.
 

can the Kone - dislikers please give us the name of the STRIKER who they would rather buy in his place for 5 mil ?

He'd be £6.5m as that's his buyout fee & I'd take Bent over him all day long for that sort of money.

I'd also have a go for Ba, before I scraped the Kone barrel
 
Dont think he'd come here we supposedly tried to sign afellay before he went to barca and he supposedly said he didn't like the feel of the place

Not quite true:

"There were several clubs that tried to sign me this summer. Hamburg and Everton wanted me, but there has to be a good feeling with a club, and that was not the case, so I decided to stay at PSV."
 

We ran at a £9m loss with those wages on the balance sheet. Of the five you've named Moyes alone earned £3m a year - it's not a stretch to beleive that Neville and Heitinga were both on £2m a year so yeah, call it £10m a year.

But Heitinga HASN'T left. And we've hired Martinez and his entourage. So we've only ACTUALLY reduced that £10m wage figure by the total value of Mucha's, Hitz's and maybe Neville's wages - how much do you reckon that is? £4m maybe?

In conclusion, we've cut our expenditure by £4m over the year. Last year we lost £9m, so this year we'll lose £5m if NOTHING ELSE changes.

So no, we don't have £10m to spend as a result of Moyes, Neville, Mucha and Hitz leaving. We've simply reduced our losses a bit. We have a £44m (approx) debt which is growing by between £5m and £9m a year. On those figures, we NEED to sell Felli in order to improve the squad - he earns between £3m and £4m a year AND we would pocket £23m-ish. So we would reduce our outgoings by the value of his wages AND generate a pot of money with which to pay for the purchase and wages of more players.

It's simple maths, nothing more.


With regards to the debt it was about 38 million pounds the season we razed about 32 million from player sales that was never reinvested and now where 40+ million in debt.

I think we might have about 5-6 million to play with max before sales.
