Fulham
Squad cost ratio (SCR) for the 2026/27 season: the Orange Ledger's independent estimate for the Premier League's 1 March 2027 test, updated as new data arrives.
Where the revenue goes
Costs exceed revenue by £34.6m
Costs exceed revenue + avg sale profit by £12.6m
- Player and head-coach wages £156.4m
- Transfer amortisation £81.1m
- Agents' fees £7.7m
- Other squad costs (loans, net) £2.7m
The squad costs the same £247.9m in both rings; only what it is measured against changes. Adding the three-year average profit on player sales (£22.0m a year) to revenue takes the ratio from 116.2% to 105.3%, so selling players is worth 10.9 points to Fulham under the rule.
Squad costs and revenue: the Orange Ledger's estimate for the 1 March 2027 test, rolled forward from the 2024/25 accounts; three-year average of player-sale profit. The 85% tick marks the rule's limit on each ring.
