If it came to worse we could sell wesley and still get around 20m for him. Luiz ia anotgee we could provably sell on for 20m+

Thats 40m alone and we wiuldnt neee tk even contenplate selling McGinn or jack. Even trez would gi for big money if we needed ti get rid.

Jack has a £45m buy out clause?

Sorted.

Dreadful article full of holes. He talks about us having to sell Villa Park to meet FFP but then a few lines later explains how we haven’t released our accounts for the 1819 season, the season we sold VP. Pretty sure an incremental £57m will see us just fine...
add that to the fact that he already undermines himself by saying we get an extra £100m from the premier league and spent about £90 (not counting the fact that most of that will be on 4 year deals with add ons so we’re probably talking £25m this year...)

Sounds like an article just to peddle Grealish ahead of the January window given his focus on him.

If there is a 45m release clause we are in trouble. Someone will bid that in jan.

If he has a 45mil buy out clause then that is poor negotiating from Villa.

I doubt it’s that low but I guess nothing in football should come as a shock.

Always seems to be the DM that drags this up every few weeks. S**t rag of a newspaper. Didn't Purslow address this recently at a fans forum and basically say everything is fine and there's nothing to worry about regarding FFP?

If true it was probably made when we were still in the Ch'ship and his advisors had more bargaining power. I wonder if we put in a clause saying that promotion to the PL negates the need for a clause.

Am I right in saying John McGinn signed a new contract at the start of this season and Dean Smith has only just signed a new contract? If FFP is an issue then I'm sure our owners and Purslow would be aware of it and I couldn't imagine them not basing the forward trajectory of our club around Jack as well.
I'd rather trust these people than a daily sh-t rag that's complicit with the media darling clubs they crave access too.

The club should make a statement in the next few days, stating the true facts.

First Premier League team to be fined for breaching FFP rules.

You'll never sing that.

Why should the club respond to factually incorrect articles such as this?
It’s rubbish and they quite correctly ignored it.

I don't know. I think responding to put supporters' minds at rest might be a good idea. Maybe sue the "newspaper", too. I'm always happy to see racists lose money.

I take it we'll be deducted points next season if we get relegated?
