Well, we have Locatelli as a set starter, Rovella is -pretty certain- to come in and demand a starting place as well. So add one more midfielder, maybe 2 if you include Witsel and I'd say we have a gaping hole in the CF position to be filled.
There's no point in getting 5 new midfielders if we let Morata leave and decide to band on Kean/Kaio Jorge or buy another emdiocre striker.

Since most of the transfers are payed over multiple years, it’s better to look to the easy targets who we will release or sell. For example Douglas Costa still costs 10,9m per year in the books and his contract will expire. De Sciglio currently costs 8m, Pjaca 3,5m, Mandragora 3,5m, Berna 15m, etc. And of course the urgent sells of Ramsey and Rabiot and even Perin costs 8,5m
I think that we’re at a point that money isn’t the issue. We drastically lowered the costs, and we’re now in the final year of most killing contracts bar Ramsey and Rabiot.
