It's been consistently reported that Felix took a huge pay cut to fit into Chelsea's wage structure - he was desperate to get out of Atletico Madrid.
I always hate reported wages in per week; makes it difficult to square with amortisation figures:
OUT (GBP):
Wages: Sterling 15m per year, Gallagher 5m per year = 20m
Fees: Gallagher 35m (42m euros)
Total out: 55m
IN (GBP):
Neto - 55m = 11m amortisation / year
Felix - 42m = 8.4m amortisation / year
Wages: Apparently both Neto and Felix are on Gallagher-level wages - so 10m per year between them
Sterling write off = 30m
Total in: 59.4m
You think Jorge Mendes negotiated deals to put Neto and especially Felix on only 100k per week?
