Better squeeze in just a few more exploitative long contracts before UEFA or FIFA steps in
Have the rules around amortising over a max of 5 years not come in yet?
It seems a bizarre way or circumventing the rules given it is so risky, surely? I could understand it in a sport where the team was less important, the individual more so (possibly baseball?), as it is maybe less likely that a player loses value. The Premier League is littered with players being overpaid and difficult to offload, signed on high contracts by optimistic clubs. Giving relatively unproven players 8 year contracts seems to be asking for trouble…
8 years again?!
These absolute morons. Keep it up Todd!
Can’t wait to see it all come crashing down
It won’t. Saudi has given them a perfect get out jail card for underperforming players on long contracts
Kinda weird for Chelsea to keep giving really long term contract
The American way.
8 years? That’s some Bartomeu juice they’re sipping.
Picked up nothing from the transfers last window, eh?
