Lukaku, Aubamayang & Pulisic?
The club is doing well, moving 7 players on.
Kovatic > 25/5m > City
Havertz> 65m > AFC.
Mendy, Ziyech & Koudibaly> KSA
Azpilicueta & Kante > on free transfers.
Academy players: ?
Mount ? the club holding out for the right money
Gallagher ? Looking like on the way out , part of the Caicedo transfer?
C- HOD ?
Chalabah,?
R-LC ? on his way to Italy > 15m
In the last few weeks the decision making process at the club does seem to have sharpened up & the new owners are doing what they are expected to do, smart financial decision making!
It seems that if the club can continue to clear the squad in the way it is doing the FFP responsibility will be managed.
The need for C/L football will paramount for next season, as yet i dont personally have a clue how this squad will gel, but as always im optimistic!
The squad is full of young talent, the academy cohort is currently being thinned.
When players want to move on, then it's time to accept unsettled players effect the squad.
This does raise the question what are the point of contracts ?
How this will be managed with long term amortization contracts?
But as it has been said & i do agree you don't spend 2.5bln and not have a plan.
The club are clearing the decks, tough decisions are being made.
The stage does look like it is being set for Poch to create his Cfc squad:
COY Blues , KTBFFH!
What next for ?

I believe we did buy Mudryk for 80m with add ons.
Kovatic with add ons 35m!

Juventus want Pulisic, no idea why but they do.

I’d give you £15m for Pulisic. Think Klopp would make a player out of him.

you've got to laugh, Cfc pricing
Values paid mainly published with add ons:
Values sold mainly published without add ons !
I think the pressure is off with the sales, the club can now to a certain extent request the fees they feel are reasonable!

No sure you have removed a huge amount from your amortisation, and certainly not enough to off-set your spending splurge and you have made/will make more signings.
So in cash flow terms you'll be doing ok, getting money in this season, but in amortisation and player trading there aint much impact until you off load the likes of Kepa Lukaku.
Your issue is that you are coming off the back of £120m losses before you even went mad spending. You'll do well to reign that back in, and especially this season without UCL.

I think the club are focussing on
1: Reducing the payroll numbers:
2: The cost of the payroll:
3: The players that have gone so far do = a 175m return:
4: The club still has another poss 170m+ worth of players that may or may not move:
Pulisic > 20m+ - Mount > 60/65m - Gallagher > 50m - C-HOD > 20m+ - Chalabah > 20m+:
Lukaku > loan:
The club have cleared the FFP requirement -120)
10 + players out 4/5 players in.
Spending to date this window, Nkunku 60m, Jackson 30m:
(M/F +1 - Caicedo ? 80m) ( G/K +1 -?) ( Strk +1 - ?)
Keppa > ? he more than likely will stay:
With out doubt C/L will be the aim for next season, or it will be a case of some clever accountancy by the owners.

So, no takers for Aubergine 🍆?

Yes good point Aubamayang?
Unless we get an offer we cant refuse,I think he will go on a free or on loan, but i suppose until we get the strikers right , his position will be open.
For a senior player he was a massive disappointment.
