You are only allowed to spend 70% of your income.
on wages, transfer fees, and agent fees IIRC.

Historically it was about the overall loss of the club, e.g. your losses were limited over a period of time, this is more about restricting how much you spend on players rather than the overall performance of the club. as I read it, your club could make heavy losses (e.g. i dunno, training ground costs, other infrastructure) without a problem.

What it means is we need to keep reducing our costs because we can't bump up our revenues fast enough. This means less salaries paid, less transfer fees paid, less agent commissions paid.

Rich get richer, while all the others are fucked for good.
With this new FFP, wages will be pulled down for most of the clubs, same for transfer fees, except for very few clubs that will became absolutely unreachable.
From our point of view, this will make us a second choice for every strong player, while PL will become the Holy land for professional footballers.
On the other hand, once the biggest clubs have done their transfers, the remaining clubs will find much cheaper prices for thei transfers, causing improved susteinability for their finances.
I think that if football will not be fully reformed, this situation will kill it, the solution could be fixed transfer fees related to the league level with fixed salary caps.
For example, the price of a Serie A player will be 10M, same for PL or Liga players, while a Serie B player will cost 2M, same for premiership or second division and so on...
The wages of top league can be fixed within 5M per player/year, so that even in the best team wages will be at max 5×22=110M.
This way lots of teams could compete without being financially broken due to a wild market.

Intervention ruined it.

Eu intervention by eliminating foreigner quotas took all the interest from domestic leagues to a handful of teams (we're also guilty of this, by participation, but without it you're Athletic Bilbao at best), then Platini sold the CL out to gain minnow votes to keep his seat, then FFP solidified the status quo of the top teams at the time it was implemented (2011-2013 period) and now this nonsense that will even deepen the gap between rich and not so rich.

This is why super league was our only hope for being relevant in terms of what we achieved almost 12 years ago. Well, for us and any other team in italy for that matter. Now we'll just watch another super league located in england dominating everyone else with few ultra rich club exceptions in France, Germany and Spain. Well, it's like that for several years now, so maybe people already accepted it.

But I think the gulf in quality will just get bigger, given how desperate sounding spain and italian clubs were when they talked about creation of super league.

capitalism destroys this sport. welcome to the capitalism sport era!
That happened 30 yrs ago, people should accept it by now. What italian clubs need right now is the ultimate expression of capitalist football and that's super league, coz I don't think italian fa or waiting for some rich owner is something you can seriously count on in the near future.

Inter were at the bottom tier of Super League income. The gap between Inter and the top European clubs would remain the same.

Being consistently in the 8 best clubs is no laughing matter, it's the equivalent of making CL quarter every year.

And what is the alternative again? Trying to compete with top clubs with Serie A money? LMAO.

It's crazy how many super league defenders still don't get this. We would be the laughing stock both on and off the pitch.
No, we would actually be able to compete with all of those teams coz at a certain point, when you have enough money coming your way to function properly, aka not being forced to sell your best players every year, the difference of how much money real madrid and inter gets doesn't matter that much, it's more how you invest it or having competent managers like marotta.

Now smaller teams like fiorentina, atalanta would be fucked, they would become a laughing stock in terms of their potential for higher aspirations given how much money is in the play, but I don't support them, so I don't give a fuck about them if I'm being brutally honest. At the end of the day, they would be in the same place they are right now, below the big boys.

'bottom of the table' LMAO, you'd kill to have us as the 8th highest earning club in the world.

As things stand, we're not 'bottom of the table', there's a hole in the bottom of the table which leads all the way to the Earth's core, that's where we are right now :lol:

I don't think people understand what the Superleague really is.
It's not a cash cow for all clubs, it's merely a closed league system. You remove yourself from the UEFA ecosystem which includes 50+ federations made up of leagues with several tiers..

The only interest would stem from video game players and detached fans from all over the world rather than locally. Which would eventually mean that these teams would be playing anywhere in the world, becoming "franchises" rather than football/sports clubs. Why do you think Bayern refused? Why do you think Barcelona fans (the real ones) don't like this? Why do you think PL fans don't want this?

This is the death of the sport and a creation of a new one. If you want to support a team in this new staged ecosystem, suit yourselves. But know that the team you'd be supporting has nothing to do with what some people founded in 1908...

On top of that they still have another team, “local” team to compete at local league. It’s bizarre if you think about it. The Superleague team has a mere name attached, a fantasy version.

UEFA FFP takes effect in two years, so given that Inter's margin stays the same, we're taking about a 39% cut in player's salaries; so long Lautaro and others and welcome back Pinamonti, Agoume and Satriano.
Or is this really a way for the super duper league to be resurrected with UEFA's collusion all along?

I take Super league bottom table over UEFA Champions league, Europa league, Conference league. UEFA is corrupt, lack transparency anyway. If this super league really gives us more money to operate this club than do it.

We wouldn't have been top8, we would have been top10 at best.

Like brehme said, Super league would change the whole system. Domestic leagues would become even more one sided, super league teams and others.

Also, the latest about Super league was they wouldn't make it closed system. Meaning we would be this team going up and down from top tier and second tier.

Uefa/Fifa are far from perfect, but I rather see Inter playing under their leagues than Perez and Agnelli owned league!

Now we still have a chance to win something… Serie A, Coppa, Europa league, CL…

In Super league there are zero change us to win anything if criminals like Agnelli and Perez are in charge and controls that leagues money and referees!
