We need to sell someone in the summer for the new financial year (Dumfries sale is just to cover some losses for this financial yea). If we want to buy some new players with such valuations we need to sell even more.

According to Gazzeta dello Sport, there is interest in Becao too.
I've watched some games of Udinese this season, and he looks decent.

He is decent. But he's no replacement for an elite player like Skriniar if that's what these animals are thinking to do - and I have a filthy feeling that's what they are trying to do. The only player Becao should replace is D'Ambrosio / Darmian, but we've just renewed both of them and we've also offered de Vrij a 2 year extension :)lol:)

So who would he be coming to replace? Surely not the guy who is expiring in 5 months, who we've tried to sell numerous times, and whose demands we repeatedly refuse to meet.

We replaced a prime €120m Lukaku with a 46 year old €1.5m Dzeko. That goes to show everything about this clubs ambitions and Becao is a move perfectly aligned with this transfer strategy. Next up, Barella for Pereyra and Lautaro for El Shaarawy.

That is the reason, we shall start developing some of our young players, or shall buy some young guys like Asllani, when they are still cheap. Lukaku was replaced by Dzeko, which is not a mistake, but the mngmt failed to get one young forward in addition. We have to mix young with experience as we don't have money to buy already developed and quality players. I don't mind our core to be aging players, but we should put young talents around them, not proved shits like Correa and Gagliardini.

It seems that Koulibali could be out of Chelsea after only one season.
It would be nice if we can get him.

Here it is:
---------

Anyone 26 and < should not be signed.

Those 5 are still young enough that if come on then at least we make some money and start again.

Gusto/Singo being my preferred choice, not sure for LWB maybe Balde???

In an ideal world.....

KK would be De Vrij replacement and we sign De ligt to partner with Skrniar and Bastoni.

Thuram
60M would be great deal for him
But Sunning will spend at most 20M for his replacement :|

Italian….
Any that start at Juve/Milan/Psg and then
Bastoni, Barella not a massive list and we have the ones we can afford
From Italian:
-----
-----

Our youth is no worse Esposito, Pirola, Bellanova, Carboni just need to be given to play, from the next season we can safely dissolve - Darmian, D'Ambrosio, Gossens and Correa.
