After the Porro deal, what’s our sell-clause on clause gone down to now?

Was it 40% down to 25%?

35% from what i've seen.

I feel a deal coming here !

Feels like if we want a RWF and LWF, if we need to go big on Left for Eze or Doue then Edwards for the right taking into account waiving the sell on, could just balance the books.
Unless you mean a deal whereby we make Edwards price more attractive in exchange for a deal on Eze.

Tailor made Olise replacement for them

A PL club coming in for him is ideal for us. Could be another 10 million in the coffers

Wonder if stuff like this and the Parrott money, plus the potential to include players like Skipp and Reguillon in a supposed Neto deal to bring the price down, allows us to go big at LWF or other position of need also?

I wonder if there’s an opportunity to do something clever here with an Eze deal and waiving the sell on clause

Wow! Never thought of that, but good suggestion

I was thinking exactly the same.
Does a sell on fee have to be paid in a lump sum when the signing is agreed?
I would've thought so and if that is the case, this could be a good opportunity to work a deal for Olise.

Would not really need to do that - and in fact, might be better if we did not.

By this I mean - we simply commit to adding the sell-on percentage directly to the Eze offer.

if we waive the sell-on clause - it allows Sporting to sell Edwards for less - and that might allow us to buy Eze for less. But, Sporting are not simply going to reduce the demand by our sell-on fee - they will still ask for more. Palace would get a better deal by paying full price for Edwards - and we use all of our portion of the Edwards money to add to our offer for Eze. (and it helps their profit/loss numbers)

In the Parrott thread i've outlined how tight we are on numbers for the UEFA squad. It's much tighter than people think as many of our U21s don't count on the B list, such that if we sell Skipp it really makes sense to bring in Edwards to replace Gil.

It only makes sense to bring Edwards in - if Ange thinks Edwards would play.

Just being HG-club-trained is not enough of a reason to sign anyone.

Of course, but if not Edwards then we have to replace Gil, Solomon, Veliz, Lo Celso and Hojbjerg with only 2 players if they are not club trained.

Now maybe Ange is fine with that, but those are the facts.

Sporting will want to show a full amount for accounting reasons I imagine.

I doubt accounting comes into it for a club like Sporting - who often make profits on player sales. I can't imagine that they are close to any profit/loss regulations. Most recent accounts seem to show a net profit of about 36M Euros

What they will want - maximize the money coming to them.

Gray has replaced Hojbjerg

Bergvall has replaced Lo Celso

Veliz, Solomon, and Bryan played a combined 458 minutes last season. Bringing in a non-HG forward will easily replace those minutes (as well as having Werner for a full year)

You’ve got to factor in that we’re playing Europe this season though. I don’t think trimming the squad too much in the wide areas is the best idea. Let’s hope Santiago impresses.

We can bring in only Neto, Doue and a LB/LCB and register everyone as long as we sell or loan:

-PEH
-GLC
-Bryan
-Solomon
-Veliz
-Skipp
-Royal
-Davies
-Spence
-Reguilon
-Phillips
