Looks like Onana's off to Villa.
£50 million is a decent return. Hope that means we'll have a couple of incomings soon.
13 Jul 2024 11:13:53
Hopefully we get the bulk of the money up front.

Think it bit low personally we paid 33 for him and we got give lille 20 percent I think we should be looking for 60.
13 Jul 2024 11:36:13
Agree £50m will do nicely.

Never saw r.

Never saw that one coming. Thought it'd be Arsenal myself.

Just read that it's 20% of any profit we make on selling him so that knocks it down a bit. If true, that is.

I’d like to see a sell on clause in this one. He’s a class player who is going to get better and very quickly outgrow Villa who I believe will struggle to replicate CL football again. Therefore he’ll get another move so it’d be nice to get some money from that possibility.

I thought Villa had PSR issues like we do so surprised they can form out £50m.
13 Jul 2024 14:07:39
Got to be honest but from what I've seen of him 50 million is fine. More bothered about the talk of resigning dele Ali.
13 Jul 2024 14:31:29
£18m profit for a mediocre player will do just fine.
13 Jul 2024 14:50:05
With you there Witty mate.

Villa ran the risk of breaching PSR for the last set of accounts ending June 30th - they made several sales before then which avoided the issue.
They got a considerable sum for David Luis so imagine they’ve used some of that towards the Onana deal - and with purchases you can spread the cost of the purchase over the length of the contract. So if they pay £50m for Onana and he has a 5yr contract as is being reported then it’s only £10m against this PSR period from what I am aware.
Just hope we have a decent replacement lined up.
13 Jul 2024 20:00:34
But why are you bothered about the Dele deal?
Right now nobody knows what sort of deal he will return on
I think he’s going to be hungry to prove doubters wrong myself, wherever he ends up, and whether with us or elsewhere I hope he does.

I believe it’s £50m with £5m in add ons if there is a 20% sell on payment on any profit and we paid £33m is £17m in profit which equals £3.4m to who we bought him from . Just on a purely mathematical basis not getting into exact finances and the other unseen costs but hopefully that’s probably £40+m going back into the club.
