Player amortisation is something Chelsea\u2019s owners have truly taken advantage of. Players joining on long-term contracts, with the fee spread out over those deals, while sales represent a full fee.<\/strong><\/p>\n

For example, Marc Cucurella has left Chelsea this summer for Real Madrid. The Spaniard has joined the Spanish giants for an initial \u00a347.5m, plus \u00a33.3m more in add-ons. That initial fee goes into the accounts.<\/p>\n

RATE 1-10: Is Marc Cucurella\u2019s exit good business by Chelsea?<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

But when signing players, Chelsea have really taken advantage. Rogers\u2019 move to Chelsea will cost them \u00a3117m up front but in terms of Financial Fair Play, that fee is spread out across five years to ease costs.<\/p>\n

Chelsea have already raked in \u00a3134.5m this summer. Initial fees for Cucurella, Andrey Santos, Tyrique George and Jimmy Jay-Morgan equate to a tall \u00a3117.5m, while Enzo Maresca\u2019s compensation was \u00a317m.<\/p>\n

How much will Morgan Rogers cost Chelsea this year <\/h2>\n

In physical terms, Chelsea have received \u00a3134.5m and are set to take their spending to around \u00a3165m, with Marco Palestra bought from Atalanta for little below the \u00a350m mark. The book spending is different.<\/p>\n

Palestra is likely to have cost under \u00a310m on this season\u2019s records, despite Chelsea still raking in full fees from sales. The Telegraph say only \u00a323.4m of Chelsea\u2019s \u00a3117m fee for Rogers is on the books this year.<\/p>\n

The physical sending of \u00a3117m to Aston Villa remains, but the fact that only \u00a323.4m will be on the books for Rogers this summer, allowing the Blues to spend more cash elsewhere, like a left-back and in midfield.<\/p>\n

What Chelsea are planning with Morgan Rogers next season<\/h2>\n

There are doubts among sections of the fanbase that are concerned over how Xabi Alonso is going to combine Rogers with Cole Palmer. The latter, on his day, is one of the best no.10\u2019s in world football.<\/p>\n

DISCUSS: In this current market, Rogers is a bargain \ud83d\udc40<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

But in order to convince Rogers over a move to Stamford Bridge, the former Man City man has got to start matches. Would he have done that at Arsenal? There\u2019s no doubt he would in a Chelsea shirt.<\/p>\n

In talks for Rogers, Chelsea informed the Aston Villa star that he would be Xabi Alonso\u2019s starter on the left wing. It means Alonso and Chelsea are planning to have both Rogers and Palmer in the starting line-up.<\/p>\n
