Spurs will be the one to watch these final few days. The squad they have is way too big. Need to shed 5 bodies at a minimum and then they need a true Harry Kane replacement. I imagine it will be lie

OUT : Lloris, Sanchez, Gil, Reguilon, Spence, Ndombele
IN : Brennan Johnson

Rumors are Gil will go in any Brennan Johnson deal
 
Sounds like you guys are trying to dodge the massive incoming FFP loss if you sell him for the expected amount of around 35m. Current book value is 58m. Loan him and you postpone the loss for another year when his book value drops to 39m. Might even still get 30m for him then plus a loan fee.
Current book value is around £30m, Chelsea wrote off £77m in their player values in 2021/22, Lukaku would almost certainly be one of the players affected.

He was signed at the start of season 21/22 for 98m on a 5 year contract. 19.5m a season in amortisation. Not sure where you get a book value of 30m from. Also loaned last season.

They impaired the value of a number of their players in 21/22. £77m worth.

They took the loss in 21/22 so that the book value of some of their players would be smaller in future years.

They don't specify the players but Lukaku is the obvious one.

He really isn't. He was a new signing in 21/22 pre Boehly on a 5 year deal. Don't see any legitimate way 70m can be amortised in 2 years.

Otherwise all clubs would play around with amortisation figures to meet FFP every year. It would be a farce.

How is Impairment not legitimate?

He took over in May 2022 and plenty of those signings went on the 21/22 books.

All explained here


Lukakus book value is just over 60m.
That article does explain it clearly

“These accounts for 2021-22 are distorted by some unusual features, such as the high pay-offs to former directors and substantial write-downs of players of £77m. I suspect a considerable element of this was in respect to Romelu Lukaku.

Boehly was appointed as a director on 1 June 2022.

It doesn't explain how you come up with a book figure of 30m.
It's guesswork, but you could say there's 3 years left, and Chelsea are asking £8-10m loan fee.

Having the loan fee cover amortisation and having wages paid for (or reduced) is probably the best they can hope for.

It is very unlikely that his value wasn't written down significantly in the 2020/21 accounts though.
 
Does Ange plan to play him as a ST or just across the front 3?
