LOL a Qatari fan complaining about FFP.
For your information Atleti is a big club and can spend big money. They didn't even spend much, 60 mil for Lemar and 20 for Rodri. They will also sell some players, there are reports about Savic, Vrsaljko, Gameiro, Vietto, Vitolo all leaving, that will get them enough money for more big transfers, and that is not counting if someone pays the release clause of Griezmann or Oblak. Also they were transfer banned the last 2 windows, so they couldn't spend as much as they wanted, they also still haven't sold the Calderon, they got an offer of 150 mil, but are holding out for 200.

I'm not a Qatari fan FYI.
I'm just asking, how Atletico can spend so much with a huge debt, taxes unpaid to the Spanish state...
They were not punished for their debt issue.

Most big clubs have debts, and mostly bigger than that at Atleti. Debts are paid of in installments, so Atleti will pay its debt in the next 10, 20 years or so.

Maybe because they know more and Griezmann is off which will earn them 80M ?

Buying players is partly funded by a 3rd party (Private investors, investment banks and hedge funds). A model that Atletico is following for some years now. And when those players are sold, a bulk of the transfer rights (which was sold previously) goes to those investment companies. ATM end up with only a minority portion of the deal.
I won't be surprised if Griezmann transfer rights were partly sold to a hedge fund, hence ATM will not gain much if the BO activated.

Thank you .... And still i'm the troll for some people here... I was right on many topics in the past, some people has to change their attitude.

I know that happened in the past with some of their players (Koke and Saul i.e.) but not sure they practice that anymore. And some of that 3rd party stuff is illegal now
