Better squeeze in just a few more exploitative long contracts before UEFA or FIFA steps in
Have the rules around amortising over a max of 5 years not come in yet?
It seems a bizarre way or circumventing the rules given it is so risky, surely? I could understand it in a sport where the team was less important, the individual more so (possibly baseball?), as it is maybe less likely that a player loses value. The Premier League is littered with players being overpaid and difficult to offload, signed on high contracts by optimistic clubs. Giving relatively unproven players 8 year contracts seems to be asking for trouble…
8 years again?!
These absolute morons. Keep it up Todd!
Can’t wait to see it all come crashing down
It won’t. Saudi has given them a perfect get out jail card for underperforming players on long contracts
Kinda weird for Chelsea to keep giving really long term contract
The American way.
Picked up nothing from the transfers last window, eh?
8 years? That’s some Bartomeu juice they’re sipping.
