Chelsea are insane. But they at least know how to game the rules and will sacrifice players to stay within them.
We have the money to buy Ugarte. The constraint is FFP. And we can get around that by some smart sales.
We bought Pellistri in 2020 for £9m on a 5 year deal. So his transfer fee has been almost fully amortized. So any transfer fee over £2m will be profit. And we can book that upfront while we can amortize any additional transfer spend over 5 years. So even if we can only get around £12m for him that will allow us to afford Ugarte.
Similarly Lindelof's transfer fee has long been amortized so by a similar logic even a modest transfer fee of £5-£10m will increase our FFP budget so we can afford Ugarte.
And both players are expendable and would be worth selling them on the cheap if it means we can sign Ugarte.

Seems that a load of chatter is saying ugarte is very close to being sorted, with psg lowering their demands for him too. If we can get that deal done and then potentially get rid of Hannibal and bring Berge in for 20m or so it's 10/10 for me.

Seeing Hannibal has handed in a transfer request Hopefully we can get 5-10 mil for him, if not trying to involve him in the Berge deal.would definitely make sense on both sides.

Once Ugarte is complete, I’d prefer them to try get loan at LB - possibly someone like reguilon again.

Yeah we definitely need a lb, a starting one 100% if it's true now Shaw is out for 6 weeks, he just needs fucking off absolute joke now, I imagine that will be one of the main positions to sort out next summer now though.

Not missing anything letting Hannibal go. He tries hard, but nothing worth keeping has developed past that. He’s McTominay without the odd goal.

Shaw injured, but back in time for the international break.
If he's picked and chooses to go, drop him for the rest of the season
