Kellyman went for £20m and now he's playing in the Championship.

League One isn’t it? Cardiff?

Wasn't Kellyman more to do with creative accounting with other deals and therefore not really worth 20 million, though? I can't remember exactly what, I just remember some outsiders moaning about rule bending.

Wasn't that the time when we sold Kellyman for £20 million but also bought Maatsen for £35 million from Chelsea?

Yes, it was.

Re Madjo, can we loan him back to Metz/another club for the rest of 2026? In fact, do we have partner/feeder clubs other than Real Unión? I assume that level would be too low for him.

[Drummond]

I guess if we can't register him we can't loan him either?

[cdbearsfan]

We could loan him anywhere in the EU, I think.

Registration just means we can't play him in any games. As CD mentions, a loan in Europe is the only option assuming we don't appeal the decision based on where he was born.
