Are all these "straight swap" proposals serious?
I think Yaya is going to be an exception.
He is probably one of very few players in his thirties who could demand a 30m+ price tag, but do you see any club wanting to pay that for someone of his age?
If he desperately wants out then we have to let him go because we run the risk of him not wanting to play for the team because his heart isn't in it, for that to happen the most likely scenario would be a player + cash deal or a straight swap.
I would be all over swapping him with Sanchez but that leaves us having to go and fund a likely big move for someone such as Vidal or Pogba and considering we a
50m cap on spending and the fact we need a central defender we could find ourselves in a difficult position.
