It sounds like it has the potential for a more sustainable way of playing (bit more emphasis on possession etc) but I’m yet to be convinced that CHO/Elanga replace Brennan’s goals, so we’d also need to be creating significantly more chances. As you say, interesting but another big job.

Yes, lots of uncertainty over CHO and also heavy reliance on Awoniyi.

£50m deal agreed for Brennan Johnson.
Structure and timeline of payments now being ratified.
Sangare inbound as soon as the above is complete.
No idea if that’s an accurate source, sorry Guru,

Sorry.
Is in line with what Danny Taylor is also saying currently.
HWG'd by Romano.
We are rich we tell you Rich!!!!!
(Hopefully more rich tea biscuit than Rich B)..
Can we get a fcuking forward in now!!!!?!!!
Chicago: Waiting to have my socks off knocked off!
Total deal is 40M + 5M in addons apparently, so it's not financing much more than Sangare. Suspect it will see us change the way we play a bit though, which might not be a bad thing.
We get the full amount for Brennan. Sangare would be spread across five years as with the other ones. Total FFP.
Only Joe and Yatesy left now.
Let’s hope we get a forward in. I don’t like being one Taiwo away from disaster.
Chicago: Fingers crossed.
It's the structure of the financing, though, isn't it? +£40m goes straight onto the FFP calcs for this year. If we pay £38M for Sangare on a five year deal, that's goes down as only -£7.6M this year for FFP.
Yes, I understand that. I was talking solely as an exercise in asset values, not the FFP shell game.
Ornstein says it's 45M + add ons.
Hilariously, the Daily Heil says that we've offered 25M for Trevor Chalobah.
Trevoh, or was that the joke that the Mail got his name wrong.....
No, that was all me.
He's just tweeted an updated figure - 47.5M fixed with no add ons.
