I don't think Abramovic is in it for return on investment

He's in it for prestige. And let's be honest, he's the one who'll be paying. Owners can throw in as much as they like for stadium works without it counting towards FFP (however the income they get from the new stadium will, of course, count in their favour in that regard).
