To be clear, I absolutely hope this kid ends up in the first team and an absolute star. Genuinely. Second coming of Muzzy Izzet, hopefully. 

 

But we'd buy a ****ing stationary cupboard, a bag of match balls and a stock of Mars Bars for the canteen for £4m if it counted towards PSR, we could amortise it and it enabled Chelsea to bid £30m for KDH in the 23/24 period. 

 

Surely all cupboards are stationary?

Id much rather this then signing average, ageing Prem players for 15 million plus like they did with Vestergaard and Perez. The sorts of signings that put us in the financial mess we’re in now

I couldn’t agree more

The KDH transfer negotiations in full:

 

J: Hello, Seagrave 365365?

 

CFC: Hello, I'm phoning from Chelsea Football Holdings to enquire if you wanted to upgrade your PSR point deductings to a lower level of deductings by downgradings your midfieldings?

J: Are you the guy who rang the other week about my managerial service providings?

CFC: No, that was Chelsea Hotel Holdings, they are a football company. This is Chelsea Football Holdings, we are a hotel company. We are calling to offer you a packagings that only gets you a 10 point deductings for your overspendings on your Boubing Soumarings.

J: 10 points? How much do we have to pay to get that? 20 million and 80k a week?

CFC: No, is very cheap packagings (for us) and it comes with a free Golding if you are signings before Sunday evening deadlinings

J: Free Golding?

CFC: Yes, Free Golding.

CFC: You pay one Dewsbury Halling in June, and get a 30 million fee minus 4 million fee for the Golding, and a 100k singings on fee and 30k a month wagings and a Fofana future transfer installment late payment forgiveness fee and a future Golding sellback fee of 3 million poundings.

You are interesting in signings?

J: Yeah, yeah sounds good. Lots of numbers there, sounds like the kind of thing I'd normally go for. Could you send me the paperwork over for that before that deadlinging you mentioned earlier?

CFC: Yes, we will be emailings them to the usual addressings we use when we are fleecing you for your best playerings.

J: Brill, I'll have a look at that on Monday when I'm back in the office, and I'll send you something on Tuesday, or maybe Wednesday if that guy gets back to me about that used racehorse in the classifieds that was reduced and I have to prioritise that. Ta very much, talk to you soon!

Sooner buy an unknown than Casadei or Broja to be honest.

Nothing from us or Chelsea yet?

He has followed a few of the Leicester players on Instagram over the last few days who have started to follow him back, so you would think it would be sometime soon but god knows with Leicester

Be great if this is part of the dodgy Chelsea push to get around FFP. We’ll pay you an extra 5 million for KDH and they you buy one of our youth players for the same amount.

Thanks for the £5million Chelsea, but we’ve changed our mind on the young lad.

[Molson Canadian]

I have a good feeling about this signing.  Won't make an impact straight away but he will be part of a good group of youngsters ready to break into the first team.  We have some solid options going forward in the U-21s now.

I think one of the things people are missing about Broja is that he is actually rated as one of the fasted players in the world. With cooper known for playing low block counter attacking football, Broja playing in a front 3 of Mavididi and Fatawu could be a master stroke. He’s never been played in a “ quick break” team before.

 

 I’m not suggesting the type of success that got us our infamous title win, but I’m hoping our counter attacking success towards the back end of last season was not lost on those in charge..it might be enough to keep us up in spite of any points deduction..

So this guy is getting announced today apparently, double with Abdul?

Apparently according to who?

[Ric Flair]

There seemed to be an article released on The Athletic that he'd signed but when I clicked on it it wasn't there anymore.

Exclusive: Leicester City to announce Michael Golding signing
Pete O'Rourke, Transfer Correspondent

Thu 4 July 2024 13:47, UK
Leicester City will confirm the signing of Chelsea midfielder Michael Golding imminently with an announcement expected later on Thursday, sources have told Football Insider.

The clubs have now reached a full agreement over the terms of the deal after the midfielder completed the formalities of the move at Leicester’s training ground.

Football Insider exclusively revealed on 30th June that Leicester had agreed a fee of £4million with Chelsea for Golding after a breakthrough in talks.

Golding has signed a four-year deal with the Foxes, leaving Chelsea six years after coming through the academy at Stamford Bridge.

The midfielder has just one senior appearance to his name, coming off the bench during the Blues’ 4-0 FA Cup victory against Preston North End in January.

Just three days later, he was named on the bench as Chelsea fell to Middlesbrough in the EFL Cup as Mauricio Pochettino handed him experience with the first team.
