Alternative striker options

A bit like a left footed Tevez in his day. Clumsily effective dribbler, with a drive and a shot on him.

We should be looking at him purely for his versatility. He could play anywhere across the front 3 and potentially in the De Bruyne role driving forward from midfield. Seems to have a good range of passing and attacking threat to do that but could also play further forward or as a no.9 with quick one touch passes and movement in behind the way Jesus does and Pep wants our no.9 to play.
 
I`ve heard that Monaco wants 80m-90m for him, and he`s surely not worth that price tag

Watched Lemar four or five times last season and he was immense. Although we don't need another central attacking-minded player, so he'll probably go to Liverpool - would be a great signing for them. As a left winger, Sane is still better so not really the best fit for us.

He plays as a left midfielder in a 4-4-2. The opposite side of Bernardo at Monaco, but pretty much the same role

I know he plays wide sometimes at Lyon. But I really don't see him being very effective outwide for us.

That's a system we don't play. Just pointing out that in our 4-3-3 he's not going to displace anyone in the left-sided or no.8 roles so doesn't make sense to go in for him
 
Could Bernardo be used in a false 9 role? I imagine him playing centrally with Jesus cutting in from the left and Mahrez right the right.
