I think we need to temper this a bit with a realisation that not all of those fees will have been paid outright, so it may not be anything like £200m. I suppose the other side of that though is we wont be buying players outright either.
Certainly - also not all of the loan fees are reported. But I still am curious to see a cut and dry “here’s how much we brought in from player sales minus the fee for Kovacic”. Like you said, not all paid outright. If options to buy are activated though, it could become a huge amount - Bakayoko alone is €40m clause.
Currently we have secured 192 million euros in sales this summer. It could be more if Monaco takes up the option to buy Bakayoko as you mention. The 192 million includes the sale of Luiz, Aina, Kalas, Omeruo as well as Hazard and Morata.
Well the transfer window closed 3 days ago and Roman doesn’t want the existence of his time machine known about.
In theory they can sign him now , and on the basis that he is already training full time with them, then its possible he has already signed.
I just read on on We ain't got no history that Chelsea tried to sell him to Sheffield Wednesday or Fulham, but everything collapsed on deadline day. The funny thing is that in that tweet, Hector is wearing a FFC workout kit. WTF? Seems like already a done deal.
