    I just went through the UEFA Settlement agreement doc and it doesn't mention 70 million anywhere. 

    It says we have to have a positive transfer balance in order to register all new players in List A for the Champions League.

    The Club agrees to be subject to a sporting restriction and, as a consequence, may not
    register any new player on its List A to UEFA club competitions unless the List A Transfer
    Balance is positive.
    • The List A Transfer Balance is defined as the difference between the cost savings from
    outgoing players (“Cost savings”) and the new costs from incoming players (“New costs”) at
    any applicable deadline for the Club’s submission of its List A.

    But it won't be straight up ins and outs over the Summer 2025 period, it will be the value when amortisation is taken into consideration.

    As far as my minimal understanding goes, we just needed to raise approximately £70m in sales this summer, which we have done.

    Leipzig want 70 million and we still have to sell players to meet the UCL financial quota. 

    Ideally Felix + Nkunku would be sold by now

    We had to sell £70m worth to hit the UEFA quota no? We've sold around £105m so should be fine

    BREAKING: Alexander Isak has informed Newcastle of his desire to explore a move this summer.

    Club aware of player’s plans and will now decide how to move, as @CraigHope_DM reports.

    Newcastle have already re-started exploring a move for a top striker in the market.

    Jackson to Newcastle

    Use Jackson money to buy Rogers

    What a dream.

     I missed that he's developed well. Another W for the Board's data projects

    Surprised. He was one of the worst players I've ever watched when he played against AFC Wimbledon. 🤣

    So why has the deal not been confirmed?

    Up until last weekend, Madueke was with the Chelsea squad on duty at the Club World Cup in the United States of America. The 23-year-old came off the bench in the Blues' semi-final win over Fluminense on Tuesday, July 8.

    With talks progressing over the deal to take him to Arsenal, however, Madueke left Chelsea's Club World Cup campaign prior to the final in New Jersey that the Blues won by defeating Paris Saint-Germain 3-0.

    It is because of that Club World Cup journey, however, that is the reason why Madueke has not been confirmed.

    While the formalities of the deal may have been completed already, Madueke has not officially signed, having been allowed to go on holiday because of his participation in the Club World Cup.

    FIFA guidelines state that players should have at least three consecutive weeks of holiday after the end of a season and Madueke is currently enjoying that break.

    Arsenal allowed Madueke that extended time off, not expecting him to be on the plane for the start of the club's pre-season tour of Asia. Madueke has only had one week off so far and another two weeks would see him miss the tour entirely.

    It may be some time before the deal is officially announced.

    Aged well, just confirmed 🤣

    This is a player who could barely get a look last season at PRESTON NORTH END.

    In fairness, there's plenty of footballers that have struggled to get minutes and then gone on to be amazing. We can't judge him on that. Andrey Santos being a prime example.

    and veiga.

    Only marginally better than Badiashile and Disasi. We need to shift from this mindset of wanting to keep players like him and Petrovic because they're slightly better than what we have. He's still not good enough for us or any top 4 team.
