On PSRwatch's ledger Josh Wilson-Esbrand costs Manchester City about £1m a year in 2026/27: £0m of wages (reported gross salary) and £0m of annual transfer-fee cost (apportioned). That is 0.1 percentage points of the club's squad-cost ratio, the 32nd highest cost of 32 on the squad and 601st of 621 named players in the league. Book value remaining £0m; contract to 2027-06-30 (expiring: 1 season left). Independent PSRwatch estimates, not official figures.
0.1 pts of the ratio at £931m of football income.
Gross pay before the player's own tax; bonuses, image rights and employer NI are not in it.
Unamortised transfer cost. Not what the player is worth; a sale above it is book profit.
To 2027-06-30, joined 2026-06-30.
£2m above book value.

Accounting basis only. A second column applying the regulators' amortisation cap is deliberately not shown until the rule text, its effective date and its applicability to this signing are sourced and encoded (see the methodology page). The wage column assumes the current wage runs to contract end.
What is still to come
At the reported salary, to contract end.
The charge falls away after 2026/27.
