Ornstein also saying 4m on athletic whatsapp channel. Think I'd trust Romano and ornstein - unless the 4m reported is if he plays X games.
Could it be 4m total cost, fee plus wages?
Because that does seem a lot of money on an alright-ish player for a few months. (Edit, that being the straight loan fee of 4m).

I think they’re separate from the u21 league. They withdrew and I guess they play friendlies rather than be a pert of it
It's a really weird set up. Basically they disbanded their old academy back in 2016 and set up this "B" team who only play friendlies. On promotion to the premier league they had to re-establish a proper academy as this is a condition of being in the premier league. They did that but then also retained this "B" team.

As part of the deal, Fulham will pay their west London rivals a loan fee of up to £4million ($5m) and cover the full salary.


Not according to ornstein. Seems they've just had their pants pulled down/helping Chelsea with PSR

Opposite way apparently according to athletic. Drops to zero fee after a certain amount of appearances, encouraging them to actually play him. So not as bad as it first sounded
That's actually a pretty good way of ensuring your player gets game-time.
