Rafael Leao's representative have received important offer from a foreign club. Milan is working on his contract extension and doesn't want to sell him for less than €70m - €80m. Milan has offered €4.5m/year, but Leao's representative want for more.
Not convinced with Bremer and Torres. Bremer untested with the back four, while Torres physically weak and slow. Skriniar tick almost all the box but slow just like Torres. Our new CBs should have decent pace, very good with the ball, good defending, and comfortable with either back three or back four.
I mean only one of them and not both. Ideally i want Gvardiol and one of Kounde or Timber. Inevitable we will need a 2 new CBs given both Christensen and Rudiger are gone and Azpilicueta could follow too.
The priority for this summer should be 2 CBs, backup RB and LB, DM, and 2 wingers.
LB: Sosa or Raum
RB: Cash or Spence
CB: Gvardiol, Kounde or Timber
DM: Kamara (free)
RW/LW: Dembele (free), Raphinha or Gnabry
Doesn't matter as West Ham still hold all the cards until next year. Rice still having 2+1 year left basically make it impossible to sign him this summer.
De Ligt would be very costly in terms of transfer fee+wage+agent commision, honestly i can't see the new owner doing Roman aka splashing €100m for one player anymore. If Rudiger or Azpilicueta also gone we need at least 2 new CBs as well.
