Makes perfect sense...Ake and Torres were done low key (partly due to them havign to cause of the pandemic situation)
I think with the squad away now in Lisbon that will also help keeping the press of the players and managers back a little .....
Probably no more signings now till our champs league participation comes to and end. Then the fun begins!
I feel like Aké and Torres could come in without too many people getting uncomfortable. Garcia said he wants to go, the squad knows Kompany needed replacing. Sané left.
They fit into existing open slots.
The next transfers though...they're coming in to replace people in the squad, or at least push them down the pecking order. Like @twosips said, that's gonna mess with people's heads.
