[Football] Summer Transfer Business

[Stato]

The Guardian's record of transfer dealings lets you look at ins and outs by club. At present, with the sale of Knocky to Fulham, we are listed as more in profit than any other PL club on transfers so far and yet only Man City have signed more players. Obviously this doesn't take wages into account and I'm unclear why they have Balogun listed as I'd understood that he was a free agent who left us in May to sign short term for Wigan.

I just thought it was nice to capture a snapshot of a moment when we signed two players with Champions League experience and were still showing as £14M+ up on our summer transfer dealings.

Like it - good visual - thanks

Few surprising names on there I didn’t realise were released - Niasse, Borthwick-Jackson etc - good signings for champ clubs there...

Why is Knocky's transfer recorded at £15 million? Everywhere else it is stated that he left for £10 million.

They paid for the season long loan and then 10m to complete the transfer

Jeff Hendrick, Nathaniel Clyne and Jack Colback all released. As others have said, decent free transfers knocking about for Championship/lower PL sides.
