Right, but is it like FIFA games where they could sell a player for 30 mil and then move a percentage of that into the wage bill?

Obviously 600k is not an achievable wage number for a professional footballing team. You literally can’t fill out a roster and have coaches for that, much less ones of any quality.
I assume it will increase when they sell Lukebakio, Juanlu, Bade and a couple more.

Lukebakio in particular is having a very good year, could easily be sold for 40-50M+

Their wage bill can increase by the amount of money they generate. They're likely tohave a wage bill much higher than that based on the contracts signed already. Any player they sell likely won't do anything(as they are over the cap), if i understand la liga system.
 


He was bought by Chivas just after he had moved to RSL last year and then Chivas never played him. Rumors are he was about to file a one time switch to US, so Mexican FA had Chivas buy him.
 
Just posting the Liverpool rumors I saw on the Score App from the past few days (doubt they are likely to happen):

  • Look out for Lukeba: Manchester United, Liverpool, and Chelsea want to hijack Real Madrid's planned deal for Castello Lukeba. The center-back has a €90-million release clause in his RB Leipzig contract. (Christian Falk)
  • Diaz expected to depart: Liverpool will look to sell Colombian international Luis Diaz this summer to fund the signing of a striker. The 28-year-old forward has been linked with Barcelona. (Football Insider)
  • Nunez likely to leave: Darwin Nunez is expected to leave Liverpool this summer. The Uruguayan has regressed in his third season at Anfield, and his departure now looks increasingly likely. (The Athletic)
  • Kelleher interest intensifies: Chelsea are prepared to meet Liverpool's demands and pay up to £40 million for goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher. The Blues recently dropped Robert Sanchez due to poor form. (Football Insider)
  • Frimpong sweepstakes heat up: Liverpool and Manchester City are interested in signing Bayer Leverkusen wing-back Jeremie Frimpong. He could leave this summer for a fee of around €40 million. (TEAMTalk)
  • Huijsen on Liverpool's short list: Liverpool will sign another center-back whether Virgil van Dijk stays or goes and have Bournemouth's Dean Huijsen on their radar. Huijsen has a £55-million release clause. (Football Insider)
  • Konate wants home cooking: Representatives for Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate opened talks with PSG over a summer transfer. The 25-year-old would love to return to his hometown. (Sky Sport Switzerland)

I’ve liked Lukeba ever since Evilo put me in him, but I am still not convinced LFC wants a short CB that doesn’t will aerial duels. Also not sure Lukeba wants to sit behind Virgil/we will pay that much for a Virgil backup. If he leaves though…
  • Diaz expected to depart: Liverpool will look to sell Colombian international Luis Diaz this summer to fund the signing of a striker. The 28-year-old forward has been linked with Barcelona. (Football Insider)
If he goes he goes, but does Barca have any money? We aren’t going to do them a favor. I think letting Diaz go unless there is a very compelling offer is a bad mistake. If anything they need more wingers. And striker(s)
  • Nunez likely to leave: Darwin Nunez is expected to leave Liverpool this summer. The Uruguayan has regressed in his third season at Anfield, and his departure now looks increasingly likely. (The Athletic)
Yeah this should have happened earlier and will definitely happen in the summer. They are going to need to spend big to get a real replacement in. I think Darwin is the worst signing of this era and I will be glad when he is gone
  • Kelleher interest intensifies: Chelsea are prepared to meet Liverpool's demands and pay up to £40 million for goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher. The Blues recently dropped Robert Sanchez due to poor form. (Football Insider)
Price of that brick going up after the Chelsea game today. We aren’t going to be able to keep Kelleher another season. Hes probably over of the best half dozen keepers in this league though. Someone will be very happy.
    • Frimpong sweepstakes heat up: Liverpool and Manchester City are interested in signing Bayer Leverkusen wing-back Jeremie Frimpong. He could leave this summer for a fee of around €40 million. (TEAMTalk)
I wouldn’t sign Frimpong. He’s not going to be able to play RB in this system. If they are going to do something wacky with him as a Salah replacement? Maybe? But I don’t really see it
    • Huijsen on Liverpool's short list: Liverpool will sign another center-back whether Virgil van Dijk stays or goes and have Bournemouth's Dean Huijsen on their radar. Huijsen has a £55-million release clause. (Football Insider)
He will go somewhere he can start.
    • Konate wants home cooking: Representatives for Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate opened talks with PSG over a summer transfer. The 25-year-old would love to return to his hometown. (Sky Sport Switzerland)
It’s an obvious link. I’d hate to lose the guy. We are kind of built on Virgil and Konate. Would prefer to keep both and improve the options behind both of them. Who knows what is up with these guys right now though

Football Insider and TEAMtalk are not worth posting.
