How many players form napkin No 1 did we end up signing? I'm not impressed by Fabio's napkin game.

If not for covid and pathetic decisions made by Paratici last summer, we would've signed bigger names but this is the reality of the situation.
A €130M(?) loss and no further CL participation, probably no scudetto as well which means lesser share of the market pool next season, has put us in a really bad situation.
Unless Paratici can work some magic and is able to gain significant plusvalenza from player sales, I can't see us spending much money at all. We would have to hope Serie A clubs give us a helping hand and accept our deferred payment deals/loan + obligation to buy deals hence names like Locatelli and De Paul are being thrown around as it would be relatively easier to negotiate.

Ended up signing Chiesa and Romero. Already sold one of them. Probably passed on Zaniolo because of injury. Missed out on Tonali.
In the list he has Savic replacing Pjanić but instead he got Arthur.
Edit : Signed Demiral as well.

Really agrrr with @Xperd ’s post above.
Given the covid scenario, it is going to be hard for us to sign good players.
If god exists, he actually tried to help us before covid hits by making CR7 thinks that we are an attractive club to play for.
Our stocks rose in 2018 (more than doubled.) we could have rode on that and then absorb covid’s hit pretty well. However, in 2019, our management managed to lose all the advantages placed upon them by god and somehow caused our stock to drop. Our stocks is now going towards the low level of where we were Pre CR7.
It is like getting an ace and a king card on black jack, but somehow still manage to accidentally shove the king card up your vagina and pull out a ‘2’ card from your ass.

Find a club willing to take Bernardeschi first
As for Dybala - I really like him and want him to stay but I must appreciate the move as it is right financially.
It would give us Depay who can score and assist and it would give us the funds for a good CM or two.
The downside of this mercato is a lack of RB as Cuad is a great attacker but I really dont think he is a good defender.
LB Gosens sounds good as A.S isnt performing.
Also getting 2 mids means we could do without Arthur who is only availabe 50% of the time.
Of course we would need a prolific goalscorer as well but Kean is better than Morata goal scoring wise

I wouldnt call it s massive but it is a downgrade. It would bring money needed to strengthen the side so its basicaly Dybala for Depay&Locatelli

Seems logical right? Having kean for rotation would make a lot of sense. If finances permit, dybala Ronaldo morata and kean with chiesa and Kulusevski should be enough for that final third. Morata 10m.for the additional year loan if I am not mistaken and kean on loan...financially would be beneficial and gives plenty of rotation in that final third which we have lacked this season.
