Know nothing about Pau Torres, except he's left footed, can't see us having 3 left footed centre backs.

Me too. Pau Torres looks fine but very similar to Laporte.
He wouldn't want to come as a LCB cover.
Maybe he was an alternative to Aké - due to his release clause - and is off the list (for now).
 
I can’t imagine we’ve told anyone that they are leaving yet as we still have games to play.

Stones and Otamendi both know that it’s time to go.

Even before the Ake signing, Pep picking Fernandinho and Garcia ahead of them told them everything.

I also don’t think them knowing that they are unwanted will have any impact on the CL. Both are professional and will be determined to win it.

gets them a better deal at the end if they play any part in us winning it.
 
We will do very to offload both Stones and Otamendi this summer. I’ll take a wild guess and say their wages will be a big deterrent.

Otamendi possibly, if Stones values his career and England chances he should want a move at any cost. Think he'll have decent offers if not what he earms now.
 
I think that is our spending over until after the CL and all the links to players teams who are involved are out as well.

1) I think with Ake and Torres with the existing squad we have 17 foreigners so maybe have to sell before we recruit.

2) We need the existing squad for CL no point selling and weakening squad. Seems that is the line from cheeky.

Only thing is if we sell Stones we will need a homegrown player to fill the quota for CL purposes because I think Foden won't count because he is academy trained. (Could be wrong )

Ake is homegrown

As above, Ake is 'Locally Trained' so can take 1 of those 8 spots. Walker, Sterling & Stones will make 4 which leaves the 17 'Non-locally Trained' spots for a 21 man squad plus any other 'Locally Trained' players that may arrive. You have to have 2 goalies listed on the 'A' list but no idea who the 2nd would be yet and which slot they would fit in.
