I don't think we have a problem re a transfer pot. We're nowhere near PSR trouble. HOWEVER, I'm not at all sure how we stand re UEFA's FFP rules on wages. Both Chelsea and Villa got heavy fines recently (and I mean heavy - Chelsea over 30m euros and Villa over 10m) for breaking those.
I also note that a couple of PL clubs have been warned by FIFA for swapping Academy players at inflated prices. What FIFA plan to do about it, I don't know.
Konate at Liverpool looks like he is going to run his contract down, last Season at Liverpool, and join Real Madrid, maybe Guehi is then going to the Scousers on a free.

Yes that’s my reading of the situation as well. Madrid taking advantage of the pulling power they have. Not good for the wider football pyramid. One reason why I can’t stand real Madrid
