City restrictions to be lifted:
Manchester City will see their spending restrictions lifted by UEFA bosses after turning a transfer profit this summer.
The Citizens, who spent their entire cap of £49.9m bringing in the likes of Fernando, Eliaquim Mangala and Willy Caballero, were still able to balance their books in style.
Valencia agreed to pay the Premier League champions a £2m loan fee for striker Alvaro Negredo on deadline day, with a cast-iron guarantee of a further £23m to complete the purchase.
City will also pick up around £4.8m in total for a similar arrangement they struck with Fiorentina for defender Micah Richards. They were also able to sell young Welsh midfielder Emyr Hughes to Wigan for £3.5m.
It means City, who had previously sold Jack Rodwell, Gareth Barry and Javi Garcia for a combined £25m, will actually show a player trading profit of £9m.
UEFA chiefs slapped a two-year spending cap on the Manchester outfit for breaching their Financial Fair Play rules but with the promise the second year would be lifted if they toed the line.
Then remember this from City's response to the sanctions, when people didn't understand what it meant as it conflicted with UEFA's version ?
"The nature of conditions that will result in the lifting of sanctions means that the club expects to be operating without sanction or restriction at the commencement of the 2015-16 season."
Looks like the transfer restrictions will be over next summer. What a job the Spaffia have done, again.

On that basis, an ambitious but underperforming club might, at that stage, be desperate for a defender and could be prepared to stump up a sum approaching £20 million, or so, for Nastasic, which would be gratifyingly nice. What would be even nicer would be if it was someone such as Whinger or, 'mirabile dictu' The Scum !!....but that's probably pushing credibility too far.

Not sure.
Does it have naked pictures of Jennifer Lawrence ?

That would be a one year transfer limit not a two year one.
