The going rate for good L1 players will be £3-4m after this window. L2 players between £1-2m.They're still pretty cheap. We do a bit of a mix of home based and abroad, and will end up making massive profits on all the players we signed from L2.
Still a huge risk for clubs that don't have big sums of cash to throw around. I don't begrudge Brentford their success, but the reason you've been able to invest in the first place is because of Benham. It's easy to make money when you got money.
On the other hand, club academies have basically become charity for poorer clubs. One market closes, another opens (so they say).
