....we can still get decent loanees in who are on high wages.
Rather than agreeing to pay a percentage of the players wage during the period of the loan, we can pay a higher loan fee to the parent club. This would in effect put the parent club in the same position as they would have been.
The EFL statement doesnt seem to suggest that loan fee's paid to clubs is covered by the salary cap.
We also paid Finidi George for a long time after he left. If we bought someone for £200k who was on £6k a week with two years left on their deal is there any reason we couldn't offer £720k and have their club settle their deal based on £5k a week and then we sign them for £1k a week?
Also if Stoke really want Jackson they could re-sign Ward on a one year deal and loan him to us. Take his wage off the fee.
Same with Everton is they fancied doing Garbutt a favour.

One rule is that the salary cap basically covers any payments that benefit the player financially.
A loan fee doesn't, but any transfer fee that results in a payment to a player may be covered by the cap.

Not sure how that could be proven. The deal between the player and his club wouldn't be any of our business.
I think collectively we're seeing that this cap is going to be as rigid as clubs want it to be. It wouldn't surprise me to see clubs over the next 3-4 years go all out to beat it while we obey it completely like FFP.

I think the EFL would deem it as their business and will see all contracts / transfer deals.
