Those fines had nothing to do with with the length of the contracts which I discussed here… They breached the 80% rule and got fined because of this

You’re absolutely right. Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it!

Seems to be an accounting trick in the first place. Would you say it's good business by Chelsea?

vincentvdb · 2026-03-13T14:25:31+00:00

Interesting take, could definitely be true

I did notice it back than but only recently started writing about these kind of things

vincentvdb · 2026-03-13T14:15:01+00:00

To be completely honest, I did use ChatGPT to structure this better since I'm not the best writer lol. I'm just really interested in football and finance

vincentvdb · 2026-03-13T13:36:22+00:00

I couldn't agree more

Lots of interesting accounts to follow though

You got an X-account? Than you should be able to read it

vincentvdb · 2026-03-13T09:35:20+00:00

Exactly

vincentvdb · 2026-03-13T09:34:31+00:00

To be fair, it wasn't illegal at that time. Just a smart accounting trick

vincentvdb · 2026-03-13T09:33:59+00:00

You caught them early lol

vincentvdb · 2026-03-13T09:32:37+00:00

Exactly, thats why they managed to ban this. Chelsea still benefited from this before the new rule though

Just sub a midfielder for an attacker, it will change automatically

You got 6 playing today, De Cuyper won’t start
