Im a bit hyped about the future. This is really a good generation if we consider that guys like Soule, Huijsen, De Winter, Nicolussi, Iling, Barrenechea and Kaio will get us 80m even if we estimate it in a conservative way and ignoring the lesser names like Barbieri, Sekulov etc
And the good thing is that it’s replicable. Definitely some genuine talent but nothing extraordinary seen.
As time progresses, I think ideally we’d continue with a bunch of players who are close to the first team and a handful out on loan. Depending on their qualities and our squad depth overal, one or two might be added every one or two season, all the other just boost our finances.
Imagine our financial situation without the sells of all those guys. We’d be chasing expensive free players like we did before. Therefore I honestly don’t understand why some here like to trash the youth. They’re a big part of becoming a sustainable club.
