You can’t really. It’s like Bargain Hunt all about your negotiating skills each way.
Not sure how you then factor in free transfers?
Unless I am mistaken, one of just two players to have played for Coventry and Sporting Lisbon.Phil Babb
A £200k profit was made on WhelanAs an aside, Babb was a fine example of selling your best player but using the money wisely. Dublin was bought with some of the cash - not sure if we signed anyone else mind you, can't quite remember?
I'm also struggling to think of any Atkinson era signings we got our money back on, let alone made a profit!
Hadji played for both too. Or might have been Chippo. One played for Sporting Lisbon and the other one Porto.Unless I am mistaken, one of just two players to have played for Coventry and Sporting Lisbon.

Sold for £500k, don’t think he signed for as muchDid we make a profit on Safri?
What did we buy/sell Pearce for?
Not directly afair, though Atkinson's spending began 5-6 months after he signedAs an aside, Babb was a fine example of selling your best player but using the money wisely. Dublin was bought with some of the cash - not sure if we signed anyone else mind you, can't quite remember?

Hughes was sold for less than the £5m we paid, sure it was about £2.5m

David Thompson?

Signed before Babb was sold, Babb wasn't sold until the end of AugustCobi Jones I guess might have been with the Babb cash?
I suppose the ultimate measure of profit would be to also include the total cost of the player’s contract to us as well as his fee. On that measure Ndlovu, McNulty and McCallum would come out on top I think.
