Just edited it for clarity. Good catch, this is what happens when I'm typing stuff at 7am.NYCFCfan, question for you maybe. In the one article-which I used Google Translate on- it says that his contract expires at the end of 2018. But in the NYCFCNation article it says about him leaving on a free. How does that work? Would NYCFC just be letting him out of his contract? Mutual termination?

He signed a 2.5 year deal so if he wants to leave the team has to either sell him or void his contract so he leaves on a free.
Keep in mind that NYCFC and Kortrijk worked out a deal before to allow him to leave for a rather large discount when he was under contract. Don't be surprised if NYCFC are willing to work out a deal again in this case. Chanot has been a great player on and off the field, and it's always a good look for a club (to agents and players) when they're willing to work with players and teams to make sure a player is happy.Sorry Chanot and Belgium but gives us all the GAM

I disagree. Chanot-Brillant delta is far smaller than Matarrita-Sweat delta.Left back.
But yes, I understand your point.
While I agree, I think, and maybe I am wrong, Chanot's value has increased or at least remained stable since joining NYCFC. He joined according to transfermarkt for 1.35 million. There is no reason we shouldn't try to recoup those costs and give us the maximum amount of GAM.
There is no way that he joined for 1.35 million. His salary plus transfer fee his first year had to be under a million for us to us TAM.
Okay, I am seriously never buying an NYCFC jersey again.
2015: Villa, Mix (GONE), Poku (Sold)
2016: Matarrita (?), Harrison (?)
2017: Chanot (Crying on the inside), McNamara (?)
That being said, from a salary perspective Callens earns $180K, Brillant $320K, and Chanot $383K. So we'd be losing our best CB but also our most expensive. However, with the TAM increases next year, this may be moot.
That being said, finding quality talent is always a problem and I can see us signing anywhere from 10/12 new players this offseason again. 2nd CF, Wingers, LB/RB, CB, Midfielders to replace Herrera possibly, 3rd DP.
Putting a name on a shirt is, has been and always will be a jinx on the player and the shirt. There's a reason I've never once done it on any shirt I've owned.
You could get namesets of players that you want to leave, with the bonus that your kit will one day be ironic grail.I've realized that it's easier to wear a jersey without a name casually as streetwear. That being said, I always find it to be naked without a nameset.
Trying to change my opinion so I no longer buy namesets on NYCFC kits.

The guys from Blue City Radio made a bet at some point where the loser had to go full kit Grabavoy to a game. It could've been the loser of that bet?Was that why there was the one guy who actually had a Grabavoy jersey? (Well, either that or it's his cousin, I guess)
We get the 650k of GAM plus the TAM that was eating up Chanot's salary right? If so I think that we can come out even stronger.
TAM is a yearly budget. So if Chanot isn't here for 2018, we can use the TAM that would have been used for Chanot for other players. I don't think it's like talk minutes on old mobile contracts that would rollover for next month (or next year).
For the GAM we get for transfers...
So to get the max $650K GAM we would have to sell him for $975K.
- A club shall receive two-thirds (2/3) of the corresponding transfer or loan fee revenue (including agent fees and other expenses), from any transaction involving a player that is NOT a Homegrown Player, Generation adidas Player, or player acquired via the MLS SuperDraft.
That being said, MLS roster rules and regulations can be changed at any time...so who knows what the rules are when we might sell him...
