It is understood Zaha would have to pay in excess of £8 million from his own pocket for the move to proceed. Well that's not happening is it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought so - same issue that meant Henderson couldn't come back to the UK from Saudi (one of them anyway). Whether its a loan or permanent isn't relevant - I assume he doesn't want to take a hit on tax and we weren't prepared to pay it for him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tax year begins april he would have to pay a big chunk of tax on five months earnings. I don’t see how it could be as high as it’s been reported looking backwards. Clearly his new salary would have to be around 170k/week to cover his future earnings at a similar level to what he’s taking home in Turkey.

That is true, even if it is proving the point that he is avoiding his tax burden by having us pay it by increasing his wages to offset the tax due. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his earnings for some portion of the prior tax year is deemed to have been earned whilst still a UK resident, irrespective of where he worked, then he will have to pay the unpaid tax in that year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
