The media normally get an idea, with some variation either way.

I'm guessing we will go abroad and get quite a few players for around £2M-£4M and we will go for 1 big money striker for about £12-£15M. (Big money for us)

How much did they report for Pascal? Don't recall even seeing any estimations.
3-4 million euros
It's not really a transfer budget though. There's a combined pot for signings plus wages.
Dale Stephens renewing his contract has saved at least £10million, David Stockdale signing would save at least £5m etc

Guess: £3.5 million we paid, not how much the Germans actually got.

I think we will be looking for loan players whether this is young players where we give them game time before sending back, or more experienced players with an option to buy if we stay up/
So I think we will be around the £20m figure.

He had a 3.4m euro release clause for relegation according to reports from Germany. Doubt that'll be too far wrong.

How soon is now?
Am I right in understanding that we can only have 2 loan players next season? Also, is our 25 man squad inclusive of under 23's( or players under a certain age)
I can us only bringing 3 or 4 in, on top of Stephens re-signing, Sidwell(if he signs), same with Stockdale and also possibly Pocognoli. I'll include Gross in that 3 or 4

We can only have 2 loan players from English clubs, not the same club. We can have foreign loans.
I thought it was only two loan players from Premier League clubs?

Do loan fees get included?
A season of Tammy Abraham will probably cost £2m-£3m.

Plus I would assume transfer budget and wages are inextricably linked. £30K a week for 4 years is £6M so if CH pays £5M then I'd guess that's £11M from his pot?

I'd imagine we'll spend between 20 and 30 million, a fraction of the TV riches. But the real issue goes beyond the monetary. The real challenge is how to balance maintaining the team spirit and togetherness against the necessity of sufficient and essential strengthening to give us a realistic chance of staying up. And we're going to need more than 3 or 4 new players to do that - a goalkeeper (possibly two), two new full-backs and then we must add pace, power and guile in midfield and up front.
If you take a look at teams who were promoted to the PL recently who did not have parachute payments, Bournemouth spent £70m and Watford £65m. That was before the present TV deal commenced. View attachment 85803
