Player Transfers Between Clubs With The Same Owner

Was looking at the goal scoring charts and identified Matej Vydra as a possible signing as he is only on loan at Watford. HOWEVER, Watford hope to sign him up. You then see that the selling and buying clubs are owned by the same owner.

How is any club going to be able to bid against Watford unless obviously a top league club offers a crate load of money?

I suppose it only becomes and issue if a player becomes in demand by a few clubs. Should Watford sign Vydra on a free yet a bid of say £250k is turned down then there may be some questions. Likewise Watford could offer £10million bearing in mind it is only shifting the owners cash between two of his companies.

the player himself might have something to say about it though.


How many players do watford have on loan now anyway?

You can have more than 5 in the matchday squad but only 5 can play at the same time so they would have subbed a loan player for a loan player

Not until bids are assessed and accepted by Udinese. They could accept 50 pence from Watford and turn down £100k from anywhere else, giving the player either the option of Watford or stay at Usinese.
