That is the reason.
Better hope a fella with less than 60 appearances doesn't turn into Chelseas own wage sucking Jurgen Locadia.
Or better still, hope he does!

Gone from using Blooms analytical witchcraft, stats and other secret methods, to who do our competitors want.... hijack & just throw more cash.
Piss easy new job.

I know the money from Chelsea will change Gpot's life forever, but really what is the point of working for these people in terms of personal development.
Chelsea were a joke under the Russians, just as bad now

He might be on Five Live tonight with Chappers. If so, I'd stick my foot through your wireless and send Michael McIntyre the bill AND demand your TV licence fee back.

Explained: How Chelsea continue to spend without breaking financial fair play
Football finance expert Kieran Maguire explains how Chelsea stay within financial fair play rules despite their high spending this season.
I'm sure if Solly gets moved back there it's only a matter of time.

So I might be being thick here, but does this not restrict their spending for the next 7-8 years worth of transfer windows?

I heard from a very reliable source on Saturday that the argie midfielder fernandez has just signed a new contract, despite only joining the club in January. Done to extend the contract to 8.5 years he said.
Suggests some serious financial issues to me.
Mind you, the Chelsea fan I was chatting to in Putney Bidge TK Max might have been shitting me I guess....

Pretty sure it does as, IIRC, FFP puts limits on the spend of PL clubs over 3 year periods

Sounds like they've gambled their 3 year FFP allocation to get into the champions league, and messed up

Not so much. If they’d signed him on a 4 year deal it would’ve impacted more. The big issue I guess is if it doesn’t work out and they sell him because as I understand it the remainder of his contract plus the fee they receive counts in that one year. Shades of Juventus.

I have a gut feeling that it is all going to go terribly wrong for Mudryk and Chelsea. On the odd occasion that he does start games he plays within himself and just doesn't look interested to me.
After all he was all set for a move to Arsenal until Boelhy hijacked the deal. He quite obviously doesn't want to be at Chelsea.

You're not being thick at all. Whilst it may help them keep within FFP limits in the short-term, it'll catch up with them in 3-4 seasons time when they've got an accumulation of old transfers that are still amortising. And that's not even taken into account the fact that they're contractually committed to paying the players a very high wage for 8 years.

He’s going to be the next Salah or DeBruyne; in about a years time those twats will let him go for half what they paid and in 2 or 3 seasons he’ll come back to haunt them.

So heartwarming
Tend to think it's because de Zerbi was there that Mudryk played one of his best games.
What a fantastic photo. What a marvellous man

Apart from amortisation. 8 year deals provide some protection from football inflation. I do think this is a strategy which could work, however surely the starting point should be
1 get rid of dead wood.
2 Improve youth recruitment
3 Sign top players on long term deals.
Not try and do everything at once.
You're not being thick but no. It is a major logical flaw of the way finances are reported in relation to transfer budget.
If the logical aim is to break even in the transfer market, then Mudryk is essentially accounted for as an £8m signing every season for the next 8 years. Chelsea can make this up each year easily in casting off academy products who aren't going to make the grade.
Where it may be an issue is if he wants away in 3 seasons time as the accounts will show the fee received minus the fee remaining. If he is a flop, then they're taking a huge gamble on being able to claw that money back.

He was Chelsea’s only player who I worried when he got the ball, he ran Veltman a few times early on, a very talented player, it’s a shame that footballers have to live up to these insane price tags really, it prohibits young players from playing with the freedom of expression we used to see.
That being said all things considered, he plays for Chelsea so f**k em.
