Boab 73 Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Portsmouth have been given special permission by the Premier League to sell players outside of the transfer window to ease their financial crisis.Pompey, who had nine points deducted for going into administration, can sell stars on condition they cannot play for their new club before next season.The south-coast club have debts of about £60m and have laid off 81 staff in an attempt to cut their costs.Pompey are bottom of the Premier League and virtually certain to be relegated.More to follow. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/p/portsmouth/8585099.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClintonGrey 365 Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Does this mean they can only sell within England and other countries that have their windows open like Russia? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tosh 0 Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 But if you have 6 teamsn looking at one player, you're going to get him cheaper than the going rate then paying his wages for a few months to save on a million or more, and beating 5 other clubs who also want him, seems like good business.

MasterD 7,430 Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 They have a striker on loan (Aruna Dindane) and if he plays 1 more game they have to give his club £4M, its no wonder they are in such a mess if this is the kind of deals they make Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
