According to Stuart Brennan in the MEN:

http://www.manchestereveningnews.co...ball-news/analysis-how-can-city-keep-8298281?

So £17 million.

good spot,
so 17 million it is then , plus any sales.
gudetti looks nailed on , but you can never be sure

Plus Nastasic,if we are lead to believe that Bobby Manc wants him.

any takers for scott sinclair, surely some lowly prem team might take a punt, he did ok for swansea

Why would Bobby want to buy a player who has been supposedly injured for the last two seasons!!!

I don't think we'll sign anyone this window.

We've spent £38m net according to the official accounts. Ignore Stuart Brennan, he's wrong.

What official accounts are we talking about?

Wasn't the spending restrictions only for the summer window anyway?

I think it was for the season, 2014/15.

Damn.....although confusing as the statement on the os stated we would restrict spending to £50m for the summer transfer window. So we have £12m liquid, guidetti £4m? Sinclair £2m? Nastasic £8m? Possibly £26m to spend? Bony for £20m and sneijder for £6m?

Getting £14m for the players you name is the snag! It's reported that Guidetti will make his Celtic move permanent for £3m so you're not far out there, but getting anything for the other two with neither of them getting much action over two seasons, and with the world knowing they are unwanted here gives us a funding problem. With their contracts now running down, City might decide it's cheaper just to let them leave for free rather than keep them until their deals expire.

I think Mark Ogden is correct. All of the reports from May when the punishment was handed out, use the words "£49m in the upcoming transfer window". Don't believe Brennan; he doesn't know his are from his elbow.
