Manchester City January transfer splurge added over £20million in transfer fee amortisation — and unknown amounts in wages — to their 2024-25 costs, in the same season their earnings from Europe dropped significantly after they exited the Champions League in the first knockout round.
Not that there’s any cause for concern in a PSR sense. City have booked significant pre-tax profits in recent years, and lost prize money from last season at home and in Europe will be, at least in part, offset by monies from this summer’s Club World Cup. City’s profits over the previous two seasons total £154.1million, and that’s before allowable costs are deducted. So profitable have the club been that ownership has had little need to inject equity. That means City’s PSR loss limit for the current cycle is just £15m, but no matter. We project they could lose close to £300million for the season just ended and be fine, PSR-wise. |

Arsenal (estimated pre-tax loss limit in 2024-25: £97m) Arsenal’s pre-tax loss totalled £69.8million across the past two seasons. Of that, £35.2m in depreciation is deemed an acceptable expense under the Premier League’s (and European governing body UEFA’s) PSR regime, reducing the club’s loss in their calculation to £34.6m before any further allowable costs on youth development, community expenditure and spending on the women’s team. Set against a £105million loss over three seasons, they’d have substantial headroom, but clubs only enjoy that limit if owners inject equity (of up to £90m) over the relevant PSR cycle. Arsenal’s sole equity injection of the 2022-25 period was a £5.4m capital contribution in 2023, so their PSR loss limit is only £20.4m — the £15m lower limit available to all clubs, plus that capital contribution. Even so, we still expect few problems, and project Arsenal could lose around £97million in 2024-25 without breaching PSR. They lost just £17.7m in 2023-24, and while operating losses were £50.3m then, they made over £50m profit on the sales of Emile Smith Rowe and Eddie Nketiah in 2024-25, as well as a decent amount on Aaron Ramsdale. What’s more, Champions League revenue was in the £100million region, leaving few worries about compliance this summer. ps3 fanboy liked this post

Chelsea (estimated pre-tax loss limit in 2024-25: £300m) PSR-busting tactics at Stamford Bridge have gained plenty of headlines in recent seasons, and for good reason. Through the intra-group sales of hotels, car parks and even their own women’s team, Chelsea have turned a rather tricky PSR position into one whereby they enjoy mammoth headroom — at least domestically. Chelsea’s pre-tax result across 2022-23 and 2023-24 was profitable at £38.3million, even before any costs are deducted from their PSR calculation — and the deductions they can make are chunky. That sale of the women’s team means they won’t benefit from any cost deductions in that respect in 2024-25, but they’re hardly necessary in terms of current compliance. Based on our projections, Chelsea could lose £300m and comply with Premier League PSR. They’ll lose a lot, but nowhere close to that much. The picture is rather different in Europe, where UEFA strips out intra-group sales. Chelsea are already in talks over a financial settlement for a breach based on their accounts for 2023-24, and another hefty loss in the last one won’t smooth their position there. The club’s return to the Champions League next season will at least help for 2025-26. ps3 fanboy liked this post

Liverpool (estimated pre-tax loss limit in 2024-25: £75m) Despite breaking even since Fenway Sports Group bought the club in October 2010, Liverpool’s pre-tax result for 2023-24 was their worst ever — £57.1m was shipped, which on top of a £9m deficit a year earlier put the club’s combined loss at £66.1m for the first two years of the current PSR cycle. Liverpool haven’t been funded by equity recently, so their losses are limited to £15million over three seasons. They do, however, have chunky allowable costs. The club’s infrastructure accounts for around £16m in annual depreciation charges, while they also run one of the more expensive youth setups in England. We estimate Liverpool could have lost £75million in their 2024-25 accounting period (which ended on Saturday) and still have been compliant with Premier League rules. In reality, with booming revenues and player sale profits of £41.9m (around double the size of 2023-24), Liverpool were considerably more likely to have been profitable last season than to have strayed anywhere close to their loss limit. ps3 fanboy liked this post

Manchester United (estimated pre-tax loss limit in 2024-25: £141m) As detailed by The Athletic, Manchester United’s PSR position is calculated using the accounts of Red Football Limited (RFL), rather than Manchester United plc (RFL is a subsidiary of the plc entity). That’s a pretty big factor, as in recent years the pre-tax result of those companies has diverged significantly. In 2023-24, Manchester United plc lost £130.7million before tax; for RFL, the deficit was just £36.2m. Per UEFA’s most recent European Club Finance and Investment Landscape report, pre-tax loss figures for United were €22m (£19m at the exchange rate used in the report) in 2022-23 and €42m (£36m) in 2023-24 — an exact mirror of the pre-tax results in RFL’s accounts. The difference stems partly from RFL including none of the costs borne by the plc as part of Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s share purchase in February 2024, but also from the structure of loans within the wider Manchester United group. RFL’s bottom line benefited from booking interest income on intra-group loans owed to RFL by entities further up the corporate chain, as well as recharging staff time to elsewhere in the business (sources have told The Athletic this time comprised plc-related business undertaken by executives, such as investor relations, rather than football-related activities). Foreign exchange differences in RFL were more favourable than at the plc level, too. Based on RFL’s loss figures, it’s a struggle to see how there were ever any PSR worries at the club — though that’s only true once Ratcliffe’s arrival was accompanied by equity investment, which raised United’s three-year PSR loss limit from £15m to £105m. There is also the complication whereby we do not know exactly which costs United were required to add back into their PSR calculation. Both the Premier League and UEFA use a ‘reporting perimeter’ that requires you to include all costs “in respect of (that club’s) football activities”, including any amounts that occur under the auspice of other legal entities. According to Old Trafford sources, for the purposes of their PSR calculation, United are required to strip out any foreign exchange differences and the impact of intra-group loan interest. That means United’s pre-tax loss in its PSR calculation is larger than that shown in RFL’s accounts, though still below the loss in the plc entity. RFL’s pre-tax loss across the 2022-23 and 2023-24 seasons was £55.1million, and United’s loss limit across the three-year PSR cycle is £105m following Ratcliffe’s injections of equity in 2024. After taking into account allowable costs, and adjusting for exchange differences and the intra-group interest, we reckon United could lose around £141m in 2024-25 and still comply with Premier League rules. In other words, they’ll be fine this summer, however surprising that may seem. ps3 fanboy liked this post

What are the terms of Tijjani Reijnders’ move to Manchester City from AC Milan? The understanding in various quarters is that Tijjani Reijnders has joined Manchester City for an initial €55 million transfer fee, rising to €65 million through ‘easily achievable’ bonuses, while more ‘difficult’ bonuses could take the deal to €70 million. The Netherlands international has also penned a long-term, five-year contract at the Etihad Stadium, keeping his services in Sky Blue until the summer of 2030. What has Tijjani Reijnders said upon joining Manchester City? “I am ecstatic to be signing for Manchester City. “City are one of the biggest teams in the world, with the best coach, world-class players and outstanding facilities. Under Pep Guardiola, City have won so many titles, and I want to help keep that going with a lot more success in the coming years. “It is also a dream come true to play in the Premier League. This league has seen many of the best Dutch players perform through the years and it’s an inspiration to follow in their footsteps. “I am really looking forward to getting going, meeting the other players and showing the Manchester City fans what I can do.” What has Hugo Viana said about the completed deal? “We are very happy that Tijjani has joined us, and we’re excited for him to join Pep’s squad. “He arrives here with extensive top-level experience in Europe both at club level as well as on the international stage with the Netherlands. “Tijjani adds extra energy, composure and creativity to our midfield and working with Pep and our coaches will only see him go from strength to strength.” ps3 fanboy liked this post
