The new FFP maximum allowable loss is €60m over 3 years, plus a squad cost ratio of no more than 80% of revenue (for the current assessment period). There's an additional €10m a year loss allowed if a club isn't subject to sanctions or a settlement agreement.
Given they were fined by UEFA, that might be a problem if or them but let's assume they'll be OK. So that's a maximum allowable loss of €90m over the preceding 3 year period. That equates to just over £75m, which is £30m less than the PL's maximum £105m, meaning they'll need to find £180m in allowable deductions to meet FFP.
Even if they can fiddle their way through PSR, I doubt UEFA will be equally accommodating over some of their dodgier claims.
Yep. We know the 40 million COVID allowance was disallowed last year and will be again, presumably. They will probably be OK on the transaction costs (the costs shouldn't be in there anyway). So they will be well over, I think. A major breach this time maybe? :)
