According to Bloomberg, Wolves are set to receive a significant financial boost from their owners this season.
Fosun Sports Group, as reported by Bloomberg, are aiming to raise £80 million to invest in the Molineux club as well as their eSports portfolio. It is understood that a substantial portion of the funds raised will be injected into Wolves during this season.
Wolverhampton Wanderers were ‘dangerously close’ to being hit with a points deduction after putting themselves at risk of breaching Premier League financial rules over the last couple of years.
Under the current Profit and Sustainability Rules, top-flight clubs can incur a maximum loss of £105 million over three seasons. Of this amount, £90 million can come from owner investment, while clubs are only permitted to incur losses of up to £15 million otherwise.
Fosun’s upcoming cash injection will contribute to raising the allowable losses at Molineux under Profit and Sustainability Regulations.
Wolverhampton Wanderers managed to avoid breaching PSR regulations by selling players for a total of £144 million during the 2023/24 season. With the imminent investment from their owners, the Midlands-based side are poised to have a competitive budget in the upcoming summer transfer window, something that Gary O’Neil would be glad to hear.
As a fan of Wolves & football in general, i find it difficult to understand the the rules, in the way that, 19 clubs have to make sure they are under the £105 mil after 3 rolling years. But 1 club in Manchester can remain a billion & growing in dept. All i hear is, they earn it? so what that shouldn’t make a difference. The rules should be for every team or none.
Absolutely spot on mate……👍👍🐺
It should be scrapped, any owners should be able to spend what they like.
It’s like saying you can’t improve your house because the next-door neighbour hasn’t got the money to improve their’s.
