Looks more realistic and marotish to be honest
Those numbers actually make sense. It doesn't include Pjaca in there. But we could finance that with the help of a sale of Hernanes.
Pjaca = 22m over 5 years which = 4.4m in amortization + 4-4.5m in gross wages = 9m
Hernanes sold at 7m? = Loss on sale of 1m (book value is 8m) + saved amortization of 4m + gross wages of 5-6m = ~9m.
Squad:
GK: Buffon, Neto, Audero (2 senior players)
DEF: ALVES, Lichsteiner, Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini, BENATIA, Rugani, Evra, Sandro (9 senior players)
MID: Khedira, Marchisio, Pogba, PJANIC, Sturaro, Lemina, Asamoah, MANDRAGORA (7 senior players)
FWDs: Dybala, PJACA, HIGUAIN, Mandzukic (4 senior players).
Total senior players = 22 with 1 senior home grown (Marchisio). Amount allowable is 25 including 4 senior home grown. So quota is fine. Should we bring in Gabigol as well, he would be U-21 and would not count to the quota.
Bottom line, is Higuain doable without selling Bonucci or Pogba? Answer: YES. Whether it is likely? That is an entirely different question.
In reality though, the wage bill WILL be higher as you would have to assume that both Bonucci and Pogba get a raise. Assume an extra 1.5-2m NET each which = ~7m in additional gross wages.
