Monthly Installments

Say if a team offered me 2M for a player up front, but then offered me 2M in 12 Months would I get the full 4M in my spending money or will I have to wait until a year?

Thanks.

Wait a full year I think.

Typically in both a sale or a purchase the "transfer budget" will be impacted by whatever items are occurring in the next 12 months. So, in your example, you should gain the whole 4M. (Assuming your chairman gives you 100% of transfer fees).

However, if the deal had been, say, 2M up front, plus 2M over 24 months, you should gain only 3M.

Note that it doesn't mean your actual balance has gone up, just what the chairman will allow you to use .. so if you're having cash flow problems, you can make them much worse by spending money you don't yet have!

As Amaroq said really. All money which you recieve in the first 12 months will be added to your transfer budget (as long as your chairman gives you 100% transfer revenue, of course)

I'm sure this isn't true. As when I was manager of someone (Can't remember who) another team offered me £6mil upfront for the player and £5mil after 12months. But I got £11mil straight away. I could tell this had happened as I had no money at the start then after the sale It shot up to £11mil.
