How the hell will they comply with FFP?

I think that they aren't, that's why they are doubling down on young talent

For excersise purposes, they are going to have spent €400mil this summer after Lavia/Caceido and €600mil across last years windows (using € because transfermarkt wouldn't change to £)

So that's €1bil spent (mental!)

Let's say on average they have given 5 year deals average (tbf it's probably longer), so per annum their FFP expenditure is €200mil per season (its more as that doesn't factor in deals from previous windows)

They have sold €250mil worth of players this year. Guys like Mount are pure profit whereas Koulibaly etc are only just through there first year. Let's assume they made €200mil this year in "profit"

So technically, they'd only be €50mil loss for this summer

Very rough, and not accurate as it hasn't considered other deals...but there was method to the madness

However I think they were banking on more money coming in for their players then they've sold them for

That's why I'm surprised they didn't sell Gallagher/Broja, youth players who's fee are full profit on the books. Although maybe they're saving that for next summer to balance the costs over the years
 
Where is this Chelsea money coming from that's the question for me.

The way they are spending it and in the quantities suggest to me it's very dirty, no one, even the richest spend cash with such ill-discipline.

Should the amortisation of those players they’re selling not come into the equation? Not like those players will appear in the books as zero?

I think they are within FFP to be honest. Last year they had the new owner investment rule so could buy whatever they wanted as long as they had a good business plan. This year they have sold a hell of a lot of players so was due a large buy or two

Yes they would but I couldn't be bothered to work it out, that's why I said that they've sold €250mil worth but said that it'll be €200mil on the books as an estimate

Mount/RLC/Ampadu are all pure profit

Other than Koulibaly, a lot of the players they sold like Havertz, Pulisic etc. Have been there a good few years already so paid off a fair chunk of those fees already

If that still exists it's only in the uefa ffp rules, premier ffp don't have a new owner massive spend rule! They will fail ffp later this year and next year too! What punishment they get will depend on Gill and if Chelsea are in champs league position and the rags are not..
