Alternative striker options

Feel like the 70m (ish) Dortmund wanted for Auba is a steal now. 31 goals last season, he stayed to be with the young talents they had, now they are leaving. Shame.
 
yep, I feel too if we fail to get both Sanchez and Mbappe, Aubameyang stays as only top quality striker we could get for relatively decent money. He's twice a player of Lukaku and Morata who went for similar money. But would he want to compete with Jesus and Aguero?

That or some backup option.
 
Yes! He's only in June if I remember correctly signed a 1 year extension with Nice. For the ££££ we are willing to shell out for KM and what Bale would cost if he were available bring Mario back at a fraction of the cost.

He loves us. We love him. The lad is only 26 and surely a capable back up/rotation striker. Plus, he is a folk hero to us. Without him there is no Agüero moment.

Not sure Dortmund would sell now, they give him like 2 months to find a club who's willing to buy him and now its gone too far, as for competing, it's hard to tell, even top players need rest so.
 
Dunno, I'll put my head on the plate now but if we go to backup route, I think Giroud wouldn't be too bad option. For all shit he gets, he scores 15 goals per season regularly and would give us a different option up front.
 
Plenty of players out there

Kingsley Coman, Mertens, Dybala, Werner, Belotti, Iñaki Williams, Balde Keïta, Breel Embolo, Aubameyang, Angel Correa, Kasper Dolberg

Also, if PSG do land Mbappé and/or Alexis to go with Neymar they may well part ways with Lucas, Di Maria, Draxler or Cavani....

How many of those are realistic? I don't know, confident we'll sign someone though.

None of them would be a serious upgrade on what we currently have. Think if we can't get our top targets it's better to avoid any signings on this crazy market and simply promote Diaz.
