thank gently caress newcastle aren't spending £7m on modou barrow. I've no idea who grabiel apelt pires is but he's a central midfielder which is good

The overwhelming suspicion seems to be that they're laundering it. Agree to pay someone (worth $10m) $50m, actually pay them $20m, stash the other $30 in a Caribbean holding corporation. That's an oversimplification with made up numbers, but it captures the gist of it.

its also a way to try and make themselves popular with the city they're in so that Xi doesn't have them quietly arrested as part of "corruption" crackdowns

Are there any recent stories about players not getting paid in China?


I know Drogba said that he hadn't been paid and used it at his reason for tearing up the contract and moving to Galatasaray, but that was some years ago now and just the one club.

I mean, Dario Conca has been there for ages now as one of the highest paid players in the world so the money is obviously there.

it was almost certainly fuckery with the contracts not specifying an exact figure to be paid, since its known this was offered to a player, and agents wised up to it

I'm not convinced. Newcastle and Norwich have the same amount in parachute payments and both have made sure to balance the books in terms of ~net spend~. Villa are spending like I've never seen a Championship club do.

I don't think newcastle balanced the books as much as just signed who benitez wanted which resulted in a net spend

is sissoko playing at all for spurs?

Didn't you sell like £100m worth of players in summer?

£80m I think but I just mean that a net spend was a result rather than the goal

Oh I see. You mean a net profit though, that was confusing me.

i hear net spend and remember liverpool supporters under benitez defending their transfers because they made a profit and well we've got benitez now

did some ligament last season so was allowed to go on loan to actually play football since newcastle signed a keeper after elliott also did a ligament
