FIFA regulations currently limit contracts to five years, but there are exceptions that may be made, which Chelsea has taken use of to postpone much of the expense of the record £460 million in transfers since Todd Boehly bought the club in July. Following the signings of Wesley Fofana and Marc Cucurella to seven and six-year contracts, respectively, last summer, French defender Benoit Badiashile and Ivory Coast striker David Datro Fofana signed six-and-a-half-year contracts this month. Mudryk, who signed the longest contract in Premier League history, was the only other player to do so.

Boehly & Eghbali found a loophole in FFP, exploited it and bought some of the best talents around the world and now UEFA are stopping it before any other club does it. Absolute genius. pic.twitter.com/5makKAzSww

UEFA has responded and is proposing to create a five-year limit for the amount of time over which a player’s transfer cost can be spread starting next summer after being made aware of what appears to be a clear pattern by other teams. The rule change won’t have an impact on Chelsea’s most recent acquisitions, but it will probably reduce their latitude in future transfer windows.

With a total of £460 million already setting records for the world and the Premier League, Chelsea’s extravagant spending between the summer and January transfer windows is anticipated to break further records. Manchester City, which spent £328.1 million in 2017–18, set the previous record.
