Martín Zubimendi

The key is probably Pep staying. He would have to articulate to him what his role is post a Rodri return.
I would say we need Zubimendi and Reijnders a couple of up and coming Defenders! Walker is past his best, Stones has his foot problem, KDB is always injured, Gundo is also past his best! That’s four plus a new striker for cover.

I'd imagine selling a position in our midfield isn't particularly tricky right now. Even with Rodri coming back, it still leaves space for 2 younger "8s" to stake a claim in there with Gundo and Kovacic likely being rotation players.

I'd be all over this and Reijnders.

What's the deal with Reijnders? Was there a report he is interested in us? I see a lot of chatter about him

Don't think so. I put in the 'players to improve us' thread yesterday that he always impresses me so I suspect the chatter is much the same with others thinking similar.

I don't think there's been concrete links to him (or any to be honest). More wishful thinking.
 
We should have gone for Reijnders when he was at AZ instead of buying Nunes from Wolves in the same summer. Very similar in height and age but he went for less than half the price (around €20 million). He would have been easier to accommodate last year and a more natural heir to Gundogan as well.
 
So many elite midfielders we’ve missed out on in that 6/8 position.

Easy to say that when our core midfielder two years ago still working as intended, you can't just buy these player and expect it will hitting ground immediately like your core players in their first season.

Also none of them wanted to have less playing time if they can get it and being main start with other top team elsewhere.
