No, depreciation.

Extract from City's 2017 financial report:

Amortisation of player registrations 121,742 ... 93,952

It's all gone very quiet on this.

I suppose it's possible there isn't as much coverage just because they're out in the Ukraine and there aren't as many active sources/leakers as there are with English/Spanish transfers, but I'm still skeptical they'll pull it off in 48 hours. Hope I'm wrong, though.

I think we will get news on this very soon - Larry Kayode might be being used as a sweetener since he's suddenly been linked to them.

Good catch. Shakhtar want to take him on loan until the summer with an option to buy - https://www.laola1.at/de/red/fussba.../auch-shakhtar-donetsk-buhlt-um-larry-kayode/.

Laporte done , really hope we somehow get him too

No, depreciation.

It's exactly the same principle as depreciation but player registrations are classed as intangible assets and therefore it's referred to as amortisation.

Laporte = 70 million euro
Fred = + 40 million euro
That means we spend 110 million euro in January , How this spending in January will affects on the financial accounts ??
Is this mean we will not make a profit this year ??

Take into account £60 million we would have spent on Alexis plus wages and fees i would presume getting these two players would have been within budget for this season maybe?

He's probably getting his Ryan Giggs duvet out of storage for the big signing on video in Stretford.....
