Apparently UEFA has conformed that only the sales from those who were named in the last European Squad will be accounted for. 

So Veiga and Felix's sale will not count in balancing the books.

as I have been saying for some time

Thinking about it, neither will Petrovic, Broja and Ugochukwu's transfers count as well and neither will any potential sale of Disasi, Gilcrist, Chukwuemeka,Sterling, David Fofana and Chilwell will count either.

I could also be wrong, but I don't that KDH's sale price would even add anything towards sales number needed?

It's also not like we can just decide to leave a couple of players out, we literally cannot register any new players, and this will include Fofana and Lavia who wasn't registered last time.

Basically we need to sell Nkunku and Jackson.

Prospect Sheet: Rayan (Vasco da Gama)

logo football observatory

The fourth Prospect Sheet from the CIES Football Observatory, in partnership with Impect, presents Brazilian striker Rayan Vitor, a product of Vasco da Gama, the club where he has played since the age of six. At just 19 years old, he is already in his third season at professional level, with a record nine goals in all competitions in 2025.

A technically skilled left-footed player who is fast, powerful, and elegant, Rayan primarily plays as a right winger, but can perform well in any attacking position. He is particularly active at finishing level, but also makes significant contributions in terms of creating chances and aerial play (he is 185cm tall).

Despite a contract expiring at the end of 2026, his transfer value estimated by the CIES Football Observatory’s statistical model is between €19.6 and €25.3 million, depending on the financial strength of the potential buyer club. A possible extension would significantly increase this amount. Without renewal, however, his value is likely to decrease, even if he continues to perform well.

EXCLUSIVE: AFC Bournemouth has START club-to-club talks with Chelsea Football Club for Axel Disasi!

This is a loan with an option to buy.

The Cherries are also in talks with the French central back.

Fuck off with this loan and option, get rid of Winstanley and Stewart amazing recruit.

The UEFA squad rules are fucking absurd. We’ll have apparently made ~£250m in players sales once this Veiga deal goes through and that won’t do anything for us under these rules. What kind of bullshit is that?

We will have balanced the books better than any club in Europe and yet are in a bind and forced to sell before buying because we didn’t balance the books in one specific way that UEFA wants it done. It’s ridiculous.

Villarreal set to sign Chelsea’s Renato Veiga in permanent transfer

Villarreal are set to complete the signing of Chelsea’s Renato Veiga on a permanent transfer.

The move, when finalised, will be processed for an upfront fee of around €24.5million (£21m) alongside a further €5m (£4.3m) in add-ons and a significant sell-on clause for the Premier League side.

The London club signed the versatile defender, who primarily plays at centre-back, from Basel for €14m last summer on a contract until June 2031, with the option of a further 12 months.

After scoring two goals across 18 Chelsea appearances, the Portugal international spent the second half of last season on loan at Juventus, where he made 15 appearances and helped the club qualify for the Champions League after the club paid a €5m loan fee.

Veiga became a Portugal international following his move to west London, and has since played five times for Roberto Martinez’s side.

The Athletic reported on July 22 that Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich were among the clubs who had registered their interest in the 21-year-old.

Veiga was primarily a squad player in the first half of the season for Chelsea, making only one Premier League start and playing 90 minutes in all six of their Conference League league-phase matches.

Sources close to Veiga, who spoke anonymously to protect relationships, told The Athletic in January that he wanted to establish himself in the Portugal team after breaking into Martinez’s senior side in the opening months of 2024-25. He then joined Serie A side Juventus on loan, where he made 12 league starts in the second half of the campaign as they qualified for the Champions League with a fourth-place finish.

Veiga was then not included in Chelsea’s travelling squad for the Club World Cup after his spell in Italy ended, instead returning to their Cobham training base outside London alongside other returning loanees such as Ben Chilwell and Joao Felix, the latter of whom has joined Al Ittihad in a permanent move.

Veiga was used primarily as an inverting left-back at Chelsea, occasionally playing as a defensive midfielder or centre-back. But all his Juventus appearances came in the heart of defence, where he has also featured for Portugal.
