All I know is that Kean and Vlahovic isn't good enough so it's essential we sign another forward. Considering we seem to be broke and aren't linked to anyone else as interesting then fuck it a loan with reasonable wages is worth it.
We need all the help we can get. Right now Kostic, Cuad, Di Maria and Vlahovic are our only attacking players. Chiesa is out until next year and Kean is a donkey so shouldn't be considered.
all the rumors say he will rescind contract with Barca so there wouldn't be a transfer but its less prefferable to a loan because he likely isn't going to sign a 1 year contract
Eh, that's sort of what I'm afraid of. No chance Allegri thinks Kostic is an LB, so I'm sure he will be an LW in this team. I'd rather have Locatelli in a three and given more freedom to go forward and join the attack, but in a two he'll be more limited, so there's that.
I don't really mind Depay as he's well-rounded and has some grit; obviously the questions surrounding his professionalism isn't great news but whatever.
