Great squad player but not good enough for a starting role, similar to Jesus in a way. If he wants a starting place elsewhere then I don't mind letting him go, being a club that puts player wishes first is never a bad thing and will serve us well long term.
Leaving sentimental reasons aside (although it's hard, the guy has connected with fans especially during the horrific events in his country) IF we get Cucurella then it's an upgrade to the squad. Let's not forget a year ago he was linked with Wolves for about 10M so getting 35M is decent business.
There's a danger of losing too many players at once and it may affect us short term but maybe this period of freshness is needed, you never know when too much standing still leads to stagnation. As long as we can keep selling out squad players for big profit we are in a healthy shape, remember when our squad players used to be Mangalas who we would have to pay to go on loan.
