Because they pay ridiculous wages and have hidden it from FFP for years.

Tevez was on something like £400k a week back when Ronaldo & Messi were on £200k.

Aguero, Silva etc... are all on silly money and there's no way Madrid can match it.

Spot on. Most of the agging for moves is also stoked up by agents desperate for another pay day. They're kept sweet by the absolute fortune their players are being paid as well.

Zidane was drooling over Salah in the Marca the other day

Salah is good, respect.

Like coutinho and soon mane i'm sure he will join a club that wins cups soon enough.

De Bruyne's missus was getting smashed by Courtois apparently, so he asked to leave. Or at least that's the version doing the rounds.

Chelsea has hardly been a place for youth to flourish in any format under any manager has it. Their model is loan them out, get big fees & spend it on established talent.
