Sorry if it’s been spoken about , but is anyone a little concerned the were giving 5 years contracts to our new signings.
Or is this the modern norm ? |  | | |  |

Pretty sure that's the maximum amortisation period these days so it's the easiest way to spread the transfer fee without impacting our PSR figures. | |

It protects us from having to sell on the cheap. The price for Mehmeti, Fatawu and the Japanese forward all driven down by only one year left |  |

Although should be noted all three 5 year deals have been given to 22 year olds. Not sure the Japanese lad will get a 5 year deal at 28. | | | |

Not at all. It is the amortisation length, and I am sure all will have some form of relegation clause in (release fee, wage reduction, combination).
It helps spread the cost over 5 years, which is good for accounting purposes, but also holds the value of players who I suspect we either wish to keep if we progress upwards or we want to sell at a profit.
If it was an eg. 3 year contract we would be in the position in 1.5 years time to organise a new contract. If we were up then this could be a huge weekly wage increase, if we are down then they would not want to sign and we would have to offload cheaply before a bosman. |  |

As long as there’s relegation clauses. | | | |
