Clubs warned by Premier League over ‘PSR loophole’ deals

Everton, Villa and Chelsea, who face pressure to comply with spending rules, have been involved in transfers and talks to buy and sell home-grown players to each other

The Premier League is monitoring player transfers that could be used to exploit a loophole in its spending rules to ensure they do not breach regulations about clubs acting in good faith.

Everton, Aston Villa and Chelsea, who all face pressure in complying with Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR) for the 2023-24 season, have been involved in transfers or talks with a view to buying and selling players to each other.

The Premier League has rules about clubs being obliged to act in good faith towards each other and the league. If transfer fees were seen as heavily inflated to circumvent the PSR rules, that could potentially be viewed as a breach.

Villa signed Everton’s academy product Lewis Dobbin, 21, on Sunday, while the Merseyside club brought in Villa’s Tim Iroegbunam in a deal worth a reported £9million. Talks are also understood to be taking place about Villa selling another academy product, the 18-year-old midfielder Omari Kellyman, to Chelsea, with the home-grown Dutch defender Ian Maatsen moving the other way for £37.5million.

 

Everton are understood to have offered Newcastle United their striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin and want the 19-year-old winger Yankuba Minteh, who attracted the attention of numerous clubs while playing on loan for Feyenoord last season, to move the other way. However sources say Newcastle have reservations about Calvert-Lewin, who has had a chequered fitness record in recent seasons, and have received big-money offers for Minteh from the continent.

The transfers make financial sense for both the buying and selling clubs when it comes to complying with PSR for last season before the June 30 deadline. Clubs are limited to losing a maximum of £105million across a three-season period, though some losses can be written off, such as spending on infrastructure or youth football.

The entire transfer fee from the sale of an academy-raised player can immediately be banked as cash income, while the fee from any purchase of a player can be spread out across the length of his contract in a process called amortisation.

Therefore, for example, if a player is signed for £10million on a five-year deal, the amortised cost for a single season is only £2million.

The Premier League has declined to comment on any specific deals but other top-flight clubs believe they are within the rules, even if they are exploiting a loophole.

Clubs have been made aware that charging each other highly inflated fees to circumvent PSR rules would potentially be an issue for the league.

Its rule B15 states: “In all matters and transactions relating to the league each club, official and director shall behave towards each other club, official, director and the league with the utmost good faith. For the avoidance of doubt and by way of example only, it shall be a breach of the duties under this rule to act dishonestly towards the league or another club; or engage in conduct that is intended to circumvent these rules or obstruct the board’s investigation of compliance with them.”

Chelsea have previously tried to exploit another loophole by selling two hotels at Stamford Bridge to a sister company for £76.5million in June last year. The Premier League had yet to approve the sale, however, ten months after the deal was executed.

This’ll be yet another thing in recent weeks that Fabrizio will have been wrong on. It’s unlike him to be this unreliable. His desire to get scoops first to uphold his image is getting in the way of getting things correct first and foremost. 

I mean, if player agent calls him and says for example, my guy is close to Chelsea what should he do?

Yep. Instantly thought that was the case when I saw that “it’s not all agreed just yet.” He wants Barca to show that they really want to keep him so he’s suing us to get that.

There seems to be ups & downs with this one. I guess we'll find out the truth soon enough.

CB update

Bremer  
Leny Yoro 

leaving

buy one of these 2 right footer CBs

António Silva (but we are now likely fucked by fucking PSG AGAIN after Yoro is very likely now going to Real Madrid; PSG will target Benfica’s António Silva if they cannot convince Leny Yoro to join their project  )

or

Jean-Clair Todibo  

plus

buy

Riccardo Calafiori   left footed

 

 

I will make this prediction: If we roll with the CBs we have (and bear in mind we are likely selling Trevoh) we will NOT get CL and will be lucky to get Europa League, plus we will not win a domestic cup

Colwill is fine, but

we are fucked after him, especially if no Trevoh

Axel Disasi shit
Benoît Badiashile semi shit so far
Wesley Fofana  perma damaged from what I see
Trevoh Chalobah  
Alfie Gilchrist passion merchant who is so not the answer
Malang Sarr   pure and utter dogshit, one of the 2 or 3 worst Cheslsea players of the past 15 years, he makes Saul look like prime Marco Tardelli

 

no even Bo-Clownlake is stupid enough to think that group is ok

I would also add the need for a CM with more experience to the list, especially if Gallagher leaves.

Unless we are counting on the Caicedo-Enzo combo to jump up a few levels this season, when playing together. Can't simply count on Lavia filling in either, given his injury record.

But a CM and a player with experience seem to be two things our club no longer wants.
