It wasn't minimal transfer fees though. We were lucky to get 150 m for Havertz (65), Mount (55m when contract was running out), Koulibaly (17m) , Mendy (16m)
If you add in Kovacic, CHO, Pulisic and RLC, the club raised 200m in sales.
There was no better powerhouse mid in the market than Caicedo. There is a beast of a player in there and he just hasn't been anywhere nearly as good as he was at Brighton. It is up to Poch to figure out how he should use Caicedo best.
Don’t understand the rumours that the board is trying to sign another CB
if anything we really need a full back, cover in midfield and a striker before we think of fresh CBs
Liverpool failed to get Lavia or Caicedo but still seem to have improved their midfield. Endo is playing quite well in the last few weeks and Trent has been great for them in the middle
Bastoni, Barella or Lautaro would be good additions. But Inter are quite careful while selling - they got the max they could out of Lukaku and seem to have sold Onana and Brozovic at the right time too.
