Y_Djorkaef Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Hi guys , i was wondering if anyone knows of clubs that are swamped in debt and financial instability. I tried to search the net maybe there are any articles but unfortunately wasn't very helpful. I wasn't really only interested in English clubs but mostly on a European level. personally i have found Austria Wien that have over 80m debt. if you know of any other clubs , feel free to post them here. could be an awesome idea for a save with a club that needs huge amount of effort Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jens_dewit Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I know kv Mechelen start with 45m€ in debt. Though after the first decent-ish season (won the cup) there was an internal takeover and the debt was restructured to monthly 375k repayments instead of the 1.7M€ per month you start out with. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signorspecial Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Genoa. In my first years in management almost all the money that I earn from player sales were going to the debt payments instead of the transfer budget. I loved that challenge though. After about 6 seasons we were sitting over a billion euros in our bank account 😉 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y_Djorkaef Posted August 25, 2023 Author Share Posted August 25, 2023 well italy is actually littered with clubs with bad finances, serie c is full of bankrupt clubs and phoenix clubs aswell. @Signorspecial that look like one hell of an achievement man, with genoa.
