Freedman

Dougie is unlikely to come back until March 2027 at the earliest. He’s a canny Scot and under Saudi laws he has to stay two years or his pay is subject to taxation. By then, hopefully, Spurs, ManU etc will have forgotten about him.
 
Firstly - just an opinion - ( I dont know anything)

If your a senior exec, in a prominent position - Sporting Director / Director of football ( whatever the title is that week) Well liked by the chairman, largely doing a good job, some good hits, a few duds but nothing that dosent happen to any other clubs, overall well respected in the club & the industry - a new manager comes in who openly credits you with good work ethic & good achievements - a manager with a record of not staying more than 2 years in any location - maybe there is a disagreement on individual players / direction / strategy etc who really knows, maybe there wasn't - in any event, if there was going to be a power struggle (which again remains as largely tittle tattle) DF would very likely still be in a position long after OG had gone

Does that really sound like a reason to up sticks & try life in KSA ?
Yes, Glasner will not work with a Director of Football. He thinks he's that himself. Dougie would not sanction players like Kamada. No way. Have a think about that. And you also have offers - well off you go.
 
Quite ridiculous that Freedman will come to Spurs,who will very likely be in the Championship next season!!

Saudi Arabia does not impose tax on employees earnings from within the Kingdom-
 
Question:

If I work abroad say in 2024 and come home in 2025 (after the 2024 tax year has ended) the income I earned abroad would that still be subject to tax? I always assumed not?
It depends on where you a registered as a fiscal resident or not, perfect example is, some people are resident of the canary islands but not fiscal, so as most are retired it doesn't effect them as they are still UK tax payers, despite being Spanish residents, i on the other hand have lived and worked in Lanzarote for 17 years, and am a fiscal resident as well as a Spanish resident, and am only taxed in Spain, although i worked from 16 to 44, continually in the UK, my 28 years of tax and social payments are transferred to Spain, if i go back to the uk for a visit, i have to get private holiday insurance.
 
Depends on whether there's a double taxation agreement surely.
Not sure how that works but it does seem a bit unfair that income tax is based on the money you earn in a tax year. So if you are not in the UK for that tax year why should you pay it?

There is an argument to move to the US tax system. Over there they don't care where you live you still pay US tax. If you don't you are liable to a massive tax bill next time you arrive in the US.

In return of course US citizens abroad are allowed to vote which only seems fair. In this country ex pats can vote even though they do not pay tax which doesn't seem right.
