Probably worth thinking about it in FFP terms which removes any gain on soudani as we’d still owe the remaining initial amortisation. The others all free (assume vellios has amortised by now)
However on the other hand transfers in can be amortised so silva will cost a bit less in accounting terms (250k), then as Osborn is an academy player we can get that straight away as he has no asset value in the accounts so that £4.5m is worth a lot. Hypothetically FFP wise could easily spend £20 and technically that would be covered by that alone (Assuming 4 year contracts)
Not saying that’s a good strategy mind but it’s nice to know the option is there
