Can anyone explain to me in as simple terms as possible, what it is about this so called "Financial Fair Play" that allows clubs like Man City, Barcelona, PSG, etc to spend so much money..but renders Milan broke? If FFP is on the horizon, why aren't other clubs scared about how much money they're spending?
FFP is about how much money can be spent and also how much deficit an owner can cover. Those teams are being creative with the 'owner can cover deficit' part. Because for example the shirt sponsor is the same owner as team owner.
But most of all they are trying to call Platini's bluff and see how tough he wants to get on them.
