RB keeps maiming club logos everywhere they go. What an eyesore.

A compromise solution would be to allow it but settle on a fair price formula and then apply a penalty to FFP with a multiplier. For example if the donor club bought the player for 40m, then take that value divide by the years to amortize it (say 4 years at 40m, 10m per year) and require the recipient club to incur an FFP penalty equal to that times a factor for the financial year of the loan. If the factor in the above example is x2 then it's minus 20 million towards FFP for the year (10m x2).

Hell, you can make the factor even scale based on the last rank of the club so the more successful a club becomes the more associated loans cost towards FFP.

On the one hand, English+homegrown status will raise the price, decent strikers are also in demand and he's still young-ish.

That being said, 100m might be a bit much. He's probably at his development peak, will have been out of action for 6 months in January and the gambling connections aren't great for the image of any club.

60-65m are definitely possible, maybe even as high as 70-75 with addons. I can't see any club outside of the PL paying anywhere close to that given that homegrown status which is a good chunk of that price is irrelevant outside the PL.

United are a genuine pain to watch, ouch

Phenomenal... the reflexes... Wow
