How much did Chelsea pay for him in the end ?

Nothing, as it stands.

I still don’t get how Chelsea got away with that, FFP meant you can only spend what you earn, 1.5b in loans that was actually debt is surely not allowed, it’s baffling. We were investigated over related sponsorship, why didn’t we just put a couple of billion in as loans and save all the hassle we went through?

Bang on this.

I've always wondered what FFP actually is now. They say it's spend what you earn, but you're watching Chelsea and Barcelona spending their debt loans, with the latter still owing players millions of pounds in salaries. It's absolutely crackers, it really is! How it is allowed that you can sell your revenue for the next 25 years and spend that money to load debt on top of huge debt (in Barcelona's case) is beyond me. No doubt they'll be on a fiddle over the next 25 years to somehow get their hands on the future revenue they've sold!

FFP was brought in to keep the Cartel clubs at the top, and prevent "State owned" clubs like City and Newcastle benefiting. Tebas has too much to say when City bring Haaland in, but when Barcelona are buying superstar after superstar whilst being in 2 billion worth of debt, and owing players 13m in wages - he keeps quiet. It's mind-boggling!

Dentures and an underground car park?

Are you trying to do a tolmie with the video?

Wonder how much playing time he'll get at Chelsea, if that's where he ends up. If Chilwell's fit it'll be a tough ask to displace him.

They have been playing games by leaking to that local reporter all through the process.

@tolmieshairdo tells me City leak information re transfers when it suits them.
Do you think k this is more excessive ?

I think the snide tone is unhelpful. Strategic links are something else. I think broadly City are very discrete in their dealings.

It's a leek

I'm confused.

With Sky Sports and Fabrizio Romano saying he's going to Chelsea and Brighton putting out an official statement that he's not going anywhere....WTF is actually happening now?
