Kante, Drinkwater, Mahrez, Maguire

[urban.spaceman]

All bought for a combined £20m. 

 

All sold for a combined £210m. 

 

One’s now a world champion, one's just won 5 trophies in a season, one’s a world record fee for a defender and the other is virtually retired. 

 

All hail the RudKING

In all fairness, Musa we got a decent amount back for. Without Silva, we possibly wouldn't have Tielemans... Slimani I'm struggling with..

I believe we are supposed to say the goal against Porto was worth £29 million.

He helped us sign ghezzal 

[foxes_rule1978]

There have been your great deals and some poor deals, thankfully the great deals have outweighed the bad ones... which is why we are fighting top six and won the title. 

[Fox92]

I'd rather have the players.

I hate to burst your bubble, but @LinekersLugs has calculated a total profit for the four of them of £5.20

[ozleicester]

So harry has gone?

[Chrysalis]

this can be looked at in two ways.

 

Healthy profits.  

 

Or examples of first team players been sold all in consecutive seasons since title win.

[bovril]

Drinkwater really ****ed up. 

[Aus Fox]

With Maguire now hoping the list of players we’ve sold for big money and not forgetting the likes of Slim and the Moose anyone know our Nett spend since we returned to the Premier League?

Slimani bagged a couple of champions League goals in the group stages without witch we wouldn't have got to experience the euphoria of Sevilla. Well worth 29 million of someone else's money!

I think we've done really well considering how important those players were, maybe even got better, and we made a huge profit. Pretty much as good as it gets these days.

[SouthStandUpperTier]

It's great that we've made a massive profit on these players and (so far) managed to reinvest well. But the fact remains that all 4 players couldn't get out of here quick enough. We've so far managed to lose only one key player per season, but I can envisage Maddison, Chilwell, Ricardo and Tielemans all having their heads turned next season if they have as good a season as we expect. What then? Before you can say 'Mark Hughes', you're fighting for survival like Southampton.
