Ake was signed imo because Laporte had missed almost a season through injury and we were hedging against him not making a full recovery or breaking down again
And maybe because of our loyalty to Fernandinho. For the last 2 seasons he was only half the player really. Not good enough to cover Rodri and not really enough to cover the CBs. Therefore, we definitely needed another CB, in case of injuries and I’m pretty sure Ake was touted as a possible defensive midfielder (I don’t think he played there, maybe one game?) to cover that position. Now a decent defensive midfielder has become available, we’ve snapped him up, so both CB and DM is covered.
 
I guess this will happen quite quickly now with Sterling being sold.
