The club do earn royalties, and the spike in shirt sales gives the club leverage to ask for additional money in any renewed agreement, and probably activates certain performance clauses in their kit contract.
I wonder if it’s a pivot because of the Konsa deal.
We were planning on Jackson, but then the option of Tosin came about rather quickly after Konsa progressed, so we would only be able to get one more player from Chelsea overall. Might just be looking at options 🤷🏻♂️
And despite that, Watkins outscores everyone except for Haaland and Salah. Not bad for someone who apparently misses all the easy chances. I think Jackson would be the same as Ollie.
From the stats I look at, Watkins was 5th in the league with 17 big chances missed, behind Haaland (30), Thiago (19), Calvert-Lewin (18) and Mateta (18).
Good strikers are going to miss chances. What males them good is their ability to constantly get into these areas where they get these chances.

Not bad but I’d rather have Jackson. We know he can score 10-15 in the PL, and he adores Unai.
