I can see us spending decent money on another centre back rather than a winger.
Stones and Dias both had niggly injuries last season and we relied massively on a patched-up Laporte in the last few games, who looked to have suffered a pretty nasty knee injury. Fernandinho playing centre half never really worked and we don’t even have that option now.
We’re always going to score goals with KDB, Haaland etc, but I think last season showed how important our centre backs are given the high line we play and how many players we commit up the field. I think we’ll sign a top defender who won’t come here as fourth choice, but to compete with the other three.
