Either Theate or Szalai would be decent enough but the former plays for a Serie A club they probably rinse us.Arthur Theate, Felix Uduokhai or Attila Szalai would all be solid budget options too IMO. Even Alessio Romagnoli could do a job on a free transfer.

Ferran torres has never been even half as good as Leroy has, especially not when he arrived. It was a downgradeEqual quality.

So here's an option
How about keeping itakura?
Not sure if he's good enough tbh

A good option but can he be registered? And with the World Cup and being their regular Centre Back that might not be ideal for him.So here's an option

I don't get the knee jerk reaction/hysteria to Jesus, Sterling & likely Ake leaving this window. Or the ridiculous oh we have FFP issues conspiracy.
It's been obvious for months we were going to start to rebuild this window, we had to. Haaland is a upgrade on Jesus, a massive one, that's obvious to anyone with any semblance of a football brain, not a knock on Gabby just facts. Sterling has reached the end of his journey with us, Alvarez isn't the proven player Raheem is but potentially could be better suited in time we will see on that one. Phillips comes in with Ake out (possibly), Phillips is a elite Premier League midfielder and no doubt Pep's already worked out if worse comes to worse we could put him in at centre back. If Cucurella comes which seems likely I think we are a stronger squad then we had last season all things considered. The EDS sales of Latvia, Bazuna and co are smart business as we likely can't get them into the squad to develop so selling them on with buy back clauses is shrewd business. They can develop and we have first option like Douglas Luiz in the future.
People need to look at the deals as a whole not as a single transfer in each case. The club is run by experts in this field, not haphazard morons. They won't get it all right but Ferran, Txiki and co know what they're doing.
I'm more excited to see what Peo can do with the rebuild of the squad coming into this season. If we can get a Pep extension it will make it more exciting. As far as I'm concerned we still have the best squad in the League with the moves we've made.

Also Wolves are interested. But still young and not quite an international so no concerns regarding the World Cup.that should send out some warning signals based upon their buying history.
Sandler and Garcia played 0 games, Sandler wasn't even signed until the summer.Uh no, we won 100 points with Stones, Otamendi, Laporte and Kompany.
Mangala was 7th choice behind those 4, Garcia and Sandler who both played more games.
Mangala started the season as 4th choice, then around Oct or nov both Stones and Kompany got injured leaving Mangala to play with otamendi. Laporte was then bought in January. Mangala then went out on loan and got a serious injury.
