Pizy 19,379 Posted August 14, 2025 Share Posted August 14, 2025 The link is bullshit but even if it wasn’t, Konate isn’t a left footed, left sided CB anyways. He’s another who plays on the right where we’re stacked. And Liverpool wouldn’t sell to us anyways even with a year left on his contract.

Pizy 19,379 Posted August 14, 2025 Share Posted August 14, 2025 Forest going crazy in the window again just like last summer. Feels like I’ve seen them bid for about 6 players this week. I’m curious how they’re able to stay PSR compliant unlike so many other “smaller” clubs. How are they able to sign seemingly dozens of players like this?

OhForAGreavsie 6,128 Posted August 14, 2025 Share Posted August 14, 2025 3 minutes ago, whats happening said: probably even less since not all of the fee will be paid at once. How Chelsea's share of the transfer is to be paid would have been included in the transfer agreement between Chelsea and Ipswich. Ipswich, in turn, will have taken that into account when negotiating payment terms with Forest. Ultimately though it doesn't matter. Regardless of how they are actually paid, clubs apply amortisation to transfer fees for accounting purposes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvin123 541 Posted August 14, 2025 Share Posted August 14, 2025 Didn't we sell hutchinson for 25m to Ipswich? So with the 9+m added onto it quite a hefty fee gained bigbluewillie and Vesper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James 5,446 Posted August 14, 2025 Share Posted August 14, 2025 Is it right Chelsea won’t get the full £9.4m? Only half of that (£4.2m) because the 25% sell-on is on Ipswich’s profit, not the whole £37.5m fee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkh 795 Posted August 14, 2025 Share Posted August 14, 2025 (edited) Chelsea have a 25% sell on clause, meaning we'd get 9.375M of the deal. Pair that with the €23.5M + €1M Loan Fee we initially sold him for, it means we've made €33.875M for him.

(@MattLaw) Chelsea co-sporting directors Paul Winstanley, Laurence Stewart sign new contracts https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6553098/2025/08/14/paul-winstanley-laurence-stewart-Chelsea-contracts/ Chelsea’s co-sporting directors, Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart, have signed new contracts at the club. Co-director of recruitment Joe Shields and director of global recruitment Sam Jewell have also signed fresh terms until 2031. The quartet all started their roles at Chelsea following the takeover by the Todd Boehly-Clearlake Capital-led consortium in May 2022. Stewart and Shields joined from Monaco and Southampton respectively in October of that year, with Winstanley and Jewell moving across in November 2022 and February last year respectively. The new regime at Chelsea had already spent more than £1billion on player transfers ahead of this summer window, with fans and pundits often critical after the significant turnover in the playing squad resulted in 12th- and sixth-place finishes between 2022 and 2024, a period which saw four head coaches lead the men’s team before Enzo Maresca was appointed last summer. What You Should Read Next Chelsea’s co-sporting directors were hired for the long term and that is how they will be judged Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley are the subjects of fans' anger but they are key components of Chelsea's plans for the future Optimism has shifted around Chelsea after Maresca guided the west London club to a fourth-place finish and triumphs in the Conference League and Club World Cup in 2024-25. Chelsea have continued to spend with the signings of Joao Pedro, Jamie Gittens, Jorrel Hato and Liam Delap for around £240m this summer, while bringing in just over £200m in sales. As well as the playing staff, Stewart and Winstanley have overseen a period of change in Chelsea’s recruitment operation since their arrival, with around 20 new hires across the scouting and data teams alone. There was also leadership change in the academy following the departures of the long-serving Neil Bath and Jim Fraser in the summer of 2024. Glenn van der Kraan then joined from Manchester City in the role of academy technical director. Winstanley and Stewart also led the process to replace Emma Hayes as Chelsea Women head coach in 2024 alongside head of women’s football Paul Green, with Sonia Bompastor recruited from Lyon, as well as overseeing the then-world record signing of Naomi Girma from the San Diego Wave in January. Chelsea start the new Premier League campaign on Sunday at home against Crystal Palace, while Bompastor’s side begin their Women’s Super League title defence against Manchester City on September 5.
