I'm not smirking any more.

Being linked with Joao Felix.

I'll eat my own cock if we sign him.

whilst I agree with the sentiment, you must be very flexible or very well endowed; our a bit of both.

I was gonna ask for his onlyfans tbh.

So, aside from some possible cock munching it seems to have gone a bit quiet!

I suspect most have been taught not to speak with their mouthful.

Probably check in with Marilyn Manson if its possible without removing a rib.

so, with Nkunku going to Chelsea I doubt they'll go after Nicolas Jackson as well..? Hopefully good news for us.

This is Chelsea…they will go for Jackson

Saudi will pay for both

[PeterWithe]

Didn't they buy Nkunku ages ago?

Can they just move money around like this for FFP

Yeah, was all agreed in January. This is just it becoming official.

Newcastle's new Saudi sponsors are paying £25m a season (?) to have their name on the shirt. I know the Barcodes have more pulling power now that they've qualified for the CL but is that market value or does it look inflated?

Tbf I think they've pitched it about right now they're in the CL.  I doubt they'd have got it on the open market, but last season Arsenal Spurs and Chelsea were all c £40m and West Ham and Everton about £10m.  It's prob a bit toppish, but they could have made an argument for a bit more.

I'm no business man but how does it work ? If I spent say £20 million on a shirt sponsorship I would expect that to generate an extra £40m in my revenue stream or have I totally missed the point.

The point is I presume they will be effectively self sponsoring (through some sort of linked company).  The question is how much could they theoretically charge themselves (pump into the club to help with FFP) without looking like they are cheating.  I guess they felt this season they could get away with £25m.  If they're in the CL next season they'll prob try to push closer to the £40m.
