Can you list the players we bought and sold, including the fee they went for ?
Cause why talk about funds, when you dont know anything
I am gonna list the important ones.
So far , in the 2015-16 summer mercatto we have sold so far:
*Andreea Pirlo - Free transfer (€3.8 milion wages available)
*Carlos Tevez - 6.500.000€ (€4.5 million wages available)
*Arturo Vidal - 37.000.000€[+3] (€4 million wages available)
*Angelo Ogbonna - 11.000.000€ (€1.2 milion wages available)
*Marco Storari - Free transfer (€1.2 milion wages available)
*Simone Pepe - Free agent (€1.3 milion wages available)
*Romulo - End of loan (€1.5 milion wages available)
*Domenico Berardi - 10.000.000€
*Frederik Sorensen - 2.000.000€
Than we recruited some important players.
*Paulo Dybala - 32.000.000€ [+8 bonus]
*Mario Mandzukic - 19.000.000€
*Simone Zaza - 18.000.000€
*Sami Khedira - Free transfer
*Neto - Free transfer
*Andres Tello - 1.200.000€
*Guido Vadalla - He is on loan as part of the Tevez deal.
*Roberto Pereyra - 14.000.000€ ( We payed his fee this year but i must point out that he was here since last year so we can't really tag him as "fresh blood")
I am not sure of the wages all the players i mentioned above are on but that's an aspect i need you to fill me in to properly make the math of this years mercatto.
What also needs to be point out is that last year everybody was expecting more of the 2014 mercatto in which we were mostly quiet , when everyone was preparing for 'big moves' giving the previous UCL group stage exit , Conte decided to leave giving the circumstances and having only Morata / Sturaro / Evra and Pereyra as new additions with Allegr the team almost won a 'treble' , but some fail to realise how important was Tevez and Pirlo's creativity , it was more than that , they were giving a 'world class air' among the dressing room , being inspirational also for youngsters , last year especially Tevez carryed our atack with Morata poaching him and right now we have a much younger team with much better pace but with less creativity and experience , which is a downgrade so far this summer , i still hope we are aiming for a top AM because we surely lack one right now.
So , going back to our funds conversation , last year we made little investments so if our starting budget last year wasn't €15 milion than we should still have some cash left , but so far im going to try to avoid the last 3 transfer markets and talk only about the present in which i know for a fact we got a very consistent deal with Adidas for our kits which in any top team is seen as a upgrade to the annual budget and beside that we went all the way to the UCL final and being the only Italian team representing Italy in the UCL knockouts increased all our TV and marketing revenues which makes us much more potent financially than in any other year post calciopoli.
Those are my arguments from what i see as a fan and not as a accountant , we should have sufficient funds remaining to be able to complete and finish our team/mercatto in a world class manner.
