I'm sure he can afford to pay someone to keep his money in a safer country. I'm not sure with the amount he'll be earning that the devaluation of the pound will have too big an impact.

Maybe it will give British players more of a chance at the top clubs if more EU players think like him
Whatever happens it'll make bugger all difference to guys at Higuin's level
But it might to huge numbers of second and third raters filling up squads at Premier League and Championship sides

So apparently our sell on is 15%. Sell for 70m we take 10m.

I still cant get it in my head that Bournemouth are a bigger club than Coventry!. I remember going to Bournemouth not so long agao when they were on the verge of relegation to the 2nd div and didn't have enough money to finish their new stand. They had people with buckets outside the ground to pay the players and keep the club afloat. Oh boy how times change.

They're not, they're just in a higher division and wealthier

Of course the recession will hit both attendances and spending power, so British footballers will still be worse off financially.

What’s the percentage of EU players in L1/2? How’s the average L1/2 clubs European network?

Don't know the figures but the FA have a plan to help young British players post Brexit
It looks unlikely to happen any time soon

I suspect the issues with the game are as cultural as structural TBH, I question whether our lads have the right mentality for the modern game, but maybe I’m an old fucker.

Regardless, I fail to see Brexit as a positive for football. But maybe that’s best left for the Off Topic side.

It's a big subject but the current England side almost all came up through the lower divisions as it's become so hard for youngsters to get a start in the Premier League
Then you have Jaden Sancho and a handful of others going to Germany where kids are given a chance
I suspect things are unlikely to change in the short term whatever is decided on Brexit

I wonder what the highest ever sell on fee is?

This must be right up there. Bournemouth obviously never thought he could be sold for 70m in a million years.

I like how so many people keep saying it will go to the Cayman Islands, yet when asked to show in detail previous times SISU have done this, they say take their word for it... that really fucking helps...

Answer is here... but should have been Bale... They don't call Levy the smartest man in football for nothing!

In this instance I'd be happy if it did if they went with it. I can't see it happening though.

Fans groups are already whipping it up to get people annoyed, it's just so they can try and get some protests going and they can stand at the forefront looking proud.

Anyway, Morata in talks with Athletico Madrid, so perhaps the transfer merry-go-round will start.

Telegraph reporting we have a prem/championship “goal scorer” lined up for Loan to go through within 2 weeks just waiting on Wilson deal as if that happens, we will splash the cash on permanent signing (target lined up)

Wonder where that's from?

I wonder what the odds on the permanent signing being McNulty.

I heard the highest sell-on so far was to QPR from Liverpool for Sterling.

Is there a definite sell on clause or are we just presuming there is? Also what happens to the sell on payout if Wilson transfers in a player exchange deal?

There is still a monetary value even with player exchange so I assume value is calculated from that

Will Grigg from Wigan possibly? Sunderland after him at the minute, wouldn’t command a huge fee if Wilson leaves.

I think it is very likely Spurs will be interested in Wilson, Kane out for two months, Son away for over a month and with having the need to finish top four and the Champion league getting to the nitty-gritty, whether they would pay £75millon though that’s perhaps a different question.

They mentioned on sky sports news that we have a 15% sell on fee for Wilson and Jim said he was delighted for coventry city and their supporters that we could stand to get 7.5 million if he's sold for 50m

Yes I know ? Which is why I expressed a bit of doubt. But if he wants to keep his manager theres possibly another factor, Manchester United, perhaps on the look out for a new manager and the Spurs one, who hasn’t signed a new player for over a year might find Uniteds millions a bit more attractive than Spurs pennies.
