Koop will probably cost more therefore Im definitely against signing him. 30M+some player - no problem but thats about it.
Carnesecchi 40M - The guy is just a good GK for his age. He is not the next Buffon... Definitely avoid. Also Woj is better so why downgrade and pay where there is no need for that?
Calafiori - Honestly speaking never watched him but if he is a good defender - Sure 20M is a good price for a promising defender. 30M? He needs to be a really top young defender which means he should enter our first 11 and play alongside an even higher valued CB.
Kayode - Saw him yesterday and judging by that - 15M or 20M is a steal as this guy is extremely young IIRC and has some great potential. He defends well and also attack, he has speed and should fit any coach we bring (or even in the scenario of keeping Allegri which is another nightmare season but he would still fit his plans)
I`d love us to somehow do a Higuain on Osimeh - The guy is simply a monster.
Its always the amortisation and salary, But if we have to lower our cost even more then we are fucked tbh. Lets not also forget that this mercato we wont have any buy out clause to trigger - last mercato we had Locatelli for 36m and Kean for 30m. Mercato before it was Chiesa for 44 m.
Also there is a big relief with the Pogba salary, im not sure about his cost, but its easily 10m +. There is also extra money from that bullshit club world cup. I would say we will have some transfer kitty this time if we manage to qualify for CL.
We can lower the costs by spreading some of the players amortisation - mainly Vlahovic (annual cost of 31.8m), Bremer (annual cost of 16.4m) and Chiesa (annual cost of 23m)
Meaning we should either sell them or sign new long terms contracts with them. Chelsea is doing similiar shit with new signed players, they sign them for a very long contract (7 or 8 years) meaning their annual cost is lesser, as its spread over all the years of contracts.
Then u have guys like Sandro, whos annual cost is 12.3m - meaning his departure could easily cover us Calafiori signing.
Kean annual cost is 12.9m another one who could bring so relief.
If we intend to go for Carnesecchi then i guess that Szczesny is out - his cost is 13.5m per year - his departure could almost cover Carnesecchi.
