I explained that in my post. If it were agreed upon earlier (handshake agreement) so that the team could benefit. I'm not saying he would but it is not entirely implausible he would want to do something beneficial for the team, considering he is at a point in his career where winning is more important than money. It would allow him 2 shots at the cup with a less-weakened team in the 2nd year. Less-weakened because they would have circumvented the cap to their benefit.
