    It's more than that isn't it?

    With this signing the £25 million takes them to £200 million, if you include the £17 million of add ons, it's well over.

    Ok according to this report it is £150 million:

    Signing Gibbs-White for £42.5m would take Forest’s summer spending to £149.4m.

    Sorted by reported fees

    Emmanuel Dennis – Watford, £20m
    Taiwo Awoniyi – Union Berlin, £17m
    Neco Williams – Liverpool, £16m
    Orel Mangala – Stuttgart, £12.7m
    Remo Freuler – Atalanta, £9m
    Moussa Niakhate – Mainz, £8.7m
    Omar Richards – Bayern Munich, £8.5m
    Lewis O’Brien – Huddersfield, £6m
    Giulian Biancone – Troyes, £5m
    Harry Toffolo – Huddersfield, £4m
    Cheikhou Kouyate – Crystal Palace, free
    Jesse Lingard – Manchester United, free
    Wayne Hennessey – Burnley, free
    Brandon Aguilera – Alajuelense, undisclosed
    Dean Henderson – Manchester United, loan

    But i could of sworn I read another report somewhere that said the £200 million figure. Maybe that included add ons etc.

    Either way - massive gamble by them, I know they effectively had to rebuild their squad after promotion due to all the loans but if this does go wrong for them.

    I'ts far too many for one window and I shudder to think what their wage bill or contracts are like. Should they go down they won't be able to pay their way easily.

    The other thing has got to be financial fair play rules and the money for lones as well as Lingards reported £200,000 a week is that not another 10 million
