The new signings have clauses in their contracts allowing them to leave permanently for a set amount if we're relegated. No loan clauses.

That's according to Marathe before the season started.

That'll bite us in the arse if we go down... Not many teams pay good money for relegated players. We could go the loan route, that would make sense

I'd hazard a guess that it will be based on current book value.

So if we signed a player last summer on a 4 year deal his exit transfer fee if we're relegated this season will be 75% of what we paid. Free transfer like DCL and Nmecha will probably have the option to leave for free rather than accept the wage cut.

Best solution is to stay up so January should see some signings :)

WTF are you happy to have loan clauses for players that come into force if we go down. Remember the last time we were in this league and what a mess it caused

I would agree with you. Better for us to have control and nothing to stop us from loaning out a player if it then suits us.
I love leeds united, may I never admit to it. :shhh:

There will be some shenanigans, of that i have no doubt.

But, i'll try not to worry about it just yet.
