Appreciate net spend is rubbish but United have spent €109m more than us net, and Arsenal €96m...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Interesting. The Wirtz signing and Isak pursuit have altered perceptions as we are talked about like the big spenders of the summer
We never get info about how much is spent on agent fees and behind the scenes so the reported spend is a decent barometer for how much clubs are spending.
I wonder what the norm is for Agent fees these days...
Historically it was a small percentage, however after the biggest robbery in British in football when Pogba signed for United, didnt the agent bag like 30%?
Yes we don’t know any of the real figures, so the wrong ones are a good barometer.

Yes, it's usually a percentage. It therefore doesn't take a mathematical genius to work out the relation between reported spend and actual spend. It's actually not rocket sconce.

Typically between 5% - 10% with signing on fees at the discretion of the deal makers so could be anything. Many will point towards 10% of the transfer as a signing fee but nothing set in stone.
Just that alone, plus taxes, will make any net spend guesses on reported fees wildly inaccurate.

We're fecked at RB lads:-
Frimpong out until after international break
Liverpool boss Arne Slot has revealed Jeremie Frimpong will be out injured until after the September international break after coming off with a hamstring issue against Bournemouth.
Liverpool go to Newcastle on Monday Night Football before facing Premier League title rivals Arsenal before the international break.
"The medical team was completely right about Jeremie, to tell me I had to take him off because he's out until the end of the international break.
"I think I got criticised a bit by taking him off. [The medical staff] felt he had an issue in his hamstring. Good call to take him off otherwise he might have been out for longer. We expect to have him back after the international break."
Conor Bradley is also currently out injured - but Slot said he returned to training with the first team on Thursday. Joe Gomez is another right-back option in the squad.
"Conor played for a few minutes with us today, for the first time."

I hadn't checked which day, but never have been a fan of Monday night footy booo.
OOh well at least it gives any RB a couple of extra days of training.

Well, you can get figures for how much a club has spent on agent fees for any accounting period.
For instance, "from 2 February 2024 to 3 February 2025, Chelsea spent a little over £60m on agents fees, while Manchester City spent about £52m."
So the agent fees can't be anything, it's something that can be ascertained to a reasonable degree of accuracy.
After agent fees there could be a few other payments to be made but overall, the net spend is a decent enough barometer for regular football fans to gauge what clubs are spending.
Yeah for the casuals and tabloid readers it is fine tbf, although still entirely moot.

Yep.
It depends sometimes these agents operate like music execs where they'll finance these players when they're still coming up by doing things like financing houses, travel, gear what what
They recoup all that stuff when the big moves come

Interesting parallel with how we seem to operate as a club. Read something about how we develop relationships with young players and then keep tabs on their career and offer support and advice long before we'd ever go in for them (if ever) even extending to career advice on transfers. Not sure if this is super normal or if we are ahead of the curve with things like that
