Ok so Pjanic is leaving - After his statement regarding PSG I think its obvious he is leaving this summer - I guess we get an offer of 80M or more
So.. We have around 80M left to spend before adding budget (We have 30M but I guess Romero is the 30M..)
I think we would probably have another 80M to spend so it makes our budget at around 160M
D.Costa likely to leave so thats another 50M ->210M
Chiesa seems very likely -70M
140M balance
I might dont like it but Icardi is probably close as well 60M
80M balance
Which means we either sell Dybala (who expressed his desire to stay) or we sell Higuain (If we can) or we only have enough for 1 CM
Pogba - Seems over the budget but I can see us trying to get him and add a few millions to it (maybe some youngster sales..)
Ndombele - Balance is enough but can he lead our midfield alone?! I highly doubt it
Eriksen - Same as Pogba
Kante - I might have bought it should we have some attacking options in midfield..
IMO it would be one of Eriksen or Pogba
Is this in football manager? Because its no where close to how it works.
2 questions to you
1. If we sell Higuain for 25 million euros in the summer do we make a profit? In your logic, does that mean that we have 25 million euros more in the budget?
2. Is buying Chiesa for 70 million euros the same cost as buying lets say Isco for 70 million euros? ( not saying that Isco cost 70 million euros, just an example)
Lets make it clearer, Chiesa gets a 5 year contract with a salary of 4.5 million euros a year.
70 million euros/ 5= 14 million euros a year
Salary before taxes 4,5 x 2 = 9 million euros a year
Cost per year= 14+9= 23 million euros per year ( we have a budget right now of around 500 millions eruos a year) for everything that cost a fooball club. Thats our income per year( sponsors, tickets, selling shirts and more)
Lets see the cost for Isco
Isco 4 year contract, 70 million euros /4 = 17 million euros.
Salary 10 million euros a year x 2( before tax) =20 million euro.
20 million euro + 17 million euro= 37 million euros cost per year.
So in this example Chiesa would cost us 23 million euros a year and Isco 37 million euros per year.
Is it the same? The examples are many. But that is just one.
The seeling part is also complex.
