People saying he'd be a replacement for Fern. Surely, he'd be more like Ilkay? He wouldn't strike me as a DM.
I know what you mean but remember Fernandinho was not a Pep signing, I think he would be a player more in line with the style of DM the great man wants to utilise as we progress forward as a team.
 
Love to sign this guy but we need the striker situation sorting first but this summer has made me sceptical about any transfer that we try to get because as it stands if someone bids we pull out which is ok with certain players but when it comes to the real game changer players we will not get a free run at any of them so we need to show who we are .
 



And that's the reason why he's linked with us and other big clubs he gets up and down the pitch brilliantly, he just grabbed a lovely assist for Dortmund's 2nd too! for a player of his age he plays like an experienced head mature beyond his years... would be good enough for us even if we signed him now in my view starting off as a squad player just whether we'd be put off by their demands.
If we go for him he could learn the dark arts from Fernandinho and offer a shit ton of energy in the middle of the park, we saw what he's capable of last season first hand I just hope the rags don't get him more than anything.

Slap in a £150m offer for him and Haaland next summer if we're interested and it could be enough (doubt it) ya never know, maybe his recent contract extension has a Haaland type release clause though it might be a way of sweetening any deals for the young talents they get.

Hes not a defensive mid though
In my opinion dahoud would be more suitable replacement for fern.

Fernandinho wasn't ever a defensive midfielder till after the age of 25... He was exclusively a high energy attacking midfielder close in style to what Bellingham is now I'd say, players at Bellingham's age can be whatever you want to turn them into and 40 years ago he'd be sweeper for Dortmund in the Sammer mould, the national team stupidly plays with 2 defensive midfielders he should already be one of them behind Foden and whoever else they wanna play.

If Bernardo goes in the long-term which I'd rather he didn't then Jude Bellingham could defo take his role as the one who we look to, if a players needs a rest is injured a good spare till he improves which he will... He has great attacking qualities but so do some of the best defensive midfielders ever, if nurtured a certain way I genuinely think he could make a great all round midfielder wherever you play him... His energy means he'd be able to cover the ground Fernandinho does he's already got great defensive instincts for his age, his quality also means he could be used in attacking positions when needed

I don't like to dismiss players but in my view Dahoud hasn't convinced me he's better than mid table quality, maybe I'm wrong but I've not seen owt to suggest he'd be a starter now or in the future for any ambitions English club whereas with Gundogan it was obvious years ago.
