Pep (through gritted teeth): "Yes, yes, lovely fella, Joao." City Xtra: "BREAKING: Pep Guardiola and Joao Cancelo are #best #friends."

I imagine the likes of Sodje, Katongo and Murray-Jones will depart in one way or another? Maybe some off the list as well, e.g. Dickson or Wright.

He is also allegedly turning 24 this November and done nothing in senior football. Avoid.

Swap Cancelo for Vitor Roque. Watch him score 30 goals off the bench and make the Brazil team. Sell for 70m in 2 years. Sorted.

They only stayed in L2 due to Bordeaux folding. Otherwise they would have been relegated to L3.

Now linked to Wolves as a potential Neto replacement. Any chance we have a sell-on clause?

One thing to add, the FIFA regulations only govern international loans, "the transfer (including loans) of players between clubs belonging to the same association is governed by specific regulations issued by the association concerned". For the Chelsea loanees, it means that only the following...

Thanks. It's annoying that FIFA's own wording seems to be ambigous across different statements. Here are FIFA's official Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players, June 2024 Edition: Even clearer, the "Commentary on the Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players" from Nov 2023...

Only players who are both under-21 and club-trained are exempt. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/4183139/2022/01/26/fifa-loan-exemptions-only-apply-to-players-who-are-both-21-or-under-and-club-trained/ Couto and Echeverri are already out on loan. That leaves 4 spots for Phillips, Cancelo...

Phillips, Cancelo, Perrone and Wilson-Esbrand have also been out on loan and kept their numbers on the website, fwiw.

Whoa, whoa, slow down there. He merely said that the club will look at options and consider maybe playing a false nine.

Good. Will start 20 games all season, max.

Worst case, the likes of Kabore, Phillips, Cancelo and Perrone go out on loan again. Plenty of squad space left in reality.

For all his technical ability, his lack of physicality and pace hurts him at the top level. His work rate and mentality is also, quite frankly, horrific. Might have been worth a punt as a kid, but now, turning 25 this year, can't see Pep being interested in such a lazy and moody player.

Yikes, good thing they have another dozen goalkeepers.

Lewis and Bobb should be B List eligible, no? Born after January 2003 and spent the required time at the club (at least two years between ages 15 and 21). That would free up a spot for JWE at least.

Didn't catch that, will update my spreadsheet, ta.

On the contrary, Troyes got an absolute boatload of players through the CFG. Palmer-Brown Sandler Kaboré Palaversa Ilić Moreno Roberts Most turned out to be rubbish though. If Troyes receive €30-35m for Savio, they will have made as much on one transfer as they entire current squad is worth...

Maybe your comprehension doesn't extend all the way to the terms used here, e.g. money made, £ produced? And even if this list was clearly labeled as purely incomings, maybe I just don't feel the need to parade fabricated accounting nonsense such as the clearly bogus values of two nobody...
