What about the budget for further transfers?

The funds obtained from the sale will likely be allocated to strengthening other areas of the team. The club may be looking for new players, although the transfer window is now closed. Any further moves would only be possible in the next window or via free agents. The club's financial strength will improve following this operation. This is important considering the difficult league situation, which can be followed live in the standings. The ultimate goal remains promotion to the top flight.
