Sarr has what it takes to replace Sané. Only thing is that he's right footed. So if we want to recreate that Sterling Sané tap in era Sterling has to continue playing on the left. Sarr is as quick as Sané but also very smart in the final third with decision making and vision. I'd imagine him having a relegation clause which allows him to leave quite cheap
Saka could be a cheaper alternative given his contract situation and everything pointing to him wanting out. Not blessed with blistering pace like Sané, but he's quick off the mark and has a nice delivery. Outstanding football IQ for his age, but he's deffo not gonna score as many goals as Sané. HG quota is a big bonus
Kulusevski is a RW but would probably play similar to Saka on the left, but much more of a goal threat than Saka and MUCH stronger. Same high level of delivery and football IQ as Saka. Signed for Juve during winter window though so this one is very unrealistic
Bailey shows glimpses of potential and plays most similar to Sané. Hasn't accomplished much since his breakout season 17/18, maybe a change of scenery could fix that but I'm sceptical. Looks good when I watch him play but he's very inconstistent and his attitude is a bit questionable
Diaby Teammate with Bailey. Much less of a goal threat than Bailey and maybe not as good of a delivery. But he's younger, absolutely rapid and probably got a better mentality than Bailey. Don't think he's ready yet
McNeil Not good enough now and not good enough in the future in my opinion. Good technique and delivery, but lacks that raw pace. I honestly don't think he'd be a significant upgrade on playing let's say Angelino at left mid. We'd be better off just playing Foden, Bernardo or Mahrez at left wing if we want to deploy Sterling on the right
Sancho Will not happen. No significant upgrade on our current wingers if we're being realistic, we already have three playmaking wingers (4 with Foden). Way too overpriced even with our 15% sale clause that could easily just give us 15% discount instead. Doesn't make sense to go for him
Rashica This one is interesting. He's quick and his dribbling reminds me a lot of Hazard. Has carried Bremen this season the same way Grealish carries Aston Villa. Could be available for very cheap, especially if Bremen gets relegated. Plays as an inside forward but his natural position is far right which is similar to Sané's role but mirrored. If we replace Sané with a right footed winger he would be less exciting but much more sensible than buying Sancho
