Simoken Posted 18 January 2023 Share Posted 18 January 2023 I wouldnt worry too much, alot of that debt is probably borrowed from the Aussy bank, that LCFC are paying off in quarters i believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to have a few facts banded about on here. And TBF they are VERY less than average at the moment. On the facts front as only Vardy, Maddison and Evans are earning more than £92k, out of about 25 players, how can the average be £92K? 1st website I looked at said £58.2k (seems in the right area), Don't know how the sites get the numbers, there are some slight variations but those numbers seem top end. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 92k apparently includes player bonuses in Europe it was explained on the @BSLBPod 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Sionnach Posted 18 January 2023 Share Posted 18 January 2023 The total salary bill is a published fact , work it out for yourself, average pay comes in at about £4 million a year about half of Man.Utd. and Chelsea. 25× 4 gives you £100 million a year. This is the cost of playing in the top half of the PL if you want to stay there expect to pay this plus inflation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 287m debt figure is from the 2021 accounts so could be even higher now if the club has taken out loans against future EPL TV money up to 2025 (exact amount not known yet) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to have a few facts banded about on here. Bertrand, Evans, Mendy, Amartey, Teilemans, Soyuncu and Perez are all out of contract in 6 months, and hopefully we can shift the likes of Vestergaard and Praet very soon too. It should free up a few million from the wage bill to hopefully bring in more players in the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Posted 18 January 2023 Share Posted 18 January 2023 Doesn’t that number also include all staff for the club? I.e, coaches, youth, admin etc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesta Legend Posted 18 January 2023 Share Posted 18 January 2023 Only posted in this forum yesterday. While I think the club is in a precarious situation and it’s down to the owners to want to properly fund its losses in the long run, this puts ‘facts’ into context by an actual expert and breaks down where we are FFP wise. So many incoherent unqualified opinions on here about the subject but this video does at least help with a better understanding. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tetly Posted 18 January 2023 Share Posted 18 January 2023 Hopefully all this borrowed money is for the stadium upgrade. If this is for our day to day running costs it’s a big problem obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to have a few facts banded about on here. On their own, these numbers don’t actually reveal much (I’m a Data Scientist). For example, our wages are not symmetrically shared across the squad. Any ‘average’ figure will be significantly skewed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st albans fox Posted 18 January 2023 Share Posted 18 January 2023 We arent necessarily borrowing the money - they’re facilities in case we do need to borrow at short notice. It could be that king power want to ensure that if they aren’t in a position to finance shortfalls then we can borrow against future income and king power would expect to be in a position to then invest in the future as travel recovers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly from Football Manager - believe it or not. That said, the researchers on FM work really hard to try and verify players wages, But they are based on educated guesses form players statements, agents statements, overall payroll figures in accounts (accounts dont give a breakdown by player) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
