It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

I don't think it is a given Bernardo will go. There really aren't a lot of clubs in Europe (outside England) that can afford his release clause. I can't see him wanting to go to PSG.

I think it was already planned for this summer mate with that number release clause being put in his contract? It basically just give him a thank pay rise for the season and a guarantee to go this summer

Not sure he does. Not if he wants Benfica at some point, he's 30 so anyone paying his release will want a few years from him making Benfica difficult.Where he can stay 2 more with us move to Benfica at 32 for nothing and finish his career there. I wouldn't be at all surprised if he is with us still next season.

I think PSG is the only viable option. Julian Laurens did say a few weeks ago that he is high on their transfer list for this summer.
 
-------------------------------Ederson------------------------------------
---------John/Akanji---------Ruben---------------Ake/Guardiol-----
--------------------Kimmich/Rico --------Rodri--------------------------
Paqueta/Bobb---Foden/KDB------Bruno/Neves-----Grealish/Doku
---------------------------Haaland/Alvarez-------------------------------

Important is to get Kimmich.
If walker goes, Pep will use similar system, he uses whenever Rico plays.
But Kimmich is world-class player and Rico will also learn a lot and get the minutes..
Plus, Kimmich can cover for Rodri..

If Bernardo goes, we definitely need Paqueta. He can play RW, like Grealish plays LW.
Control the ball, the tempo, etc. He can also play LCM / RCM, like Bernardo does.

That's the minimum for me, to maintain the level we have, in case Bernardo / Walker are gone.

After that it depends. If Kovacic goes, we definitely need someone and that young player from
Benfica will be a good investment for the future.

If Matheus also goes, in addition to Kovacic, then Bruno Guiamares is the perfect candidate
