Can we compare it with other standout players in the relegated teams from the last 5 seasons?
This year Soule had 11G/3A season in 3141 minutes. That's a little better than Pinamonti (25 years old) from the relegated Sassuolo who had 11/1 in 3100 minutes and Candreva (37 years old) with 6G/6A in relegated Salernitana.
In the previous 5 seasons the best players in the relegated teams:
1. Simy (29 years old; Crotone) in 2020-21 had 20G/2A
2. Caputo (31 years old; Empoli) in 2018-19 had 16G/3A
3. Joao Pedro (30 years old; Cagliari) in 2021-22 had 13G/4A
4. Mancosu (31 years old; Lecce) in 2019-20 had 14G/2A
5. Nzola (26 years old; Spezia) in 2022-23 had 13G/2A
6. Junior Mesias (29 years old; Crotone) in 2020-21 had 9G/4A
7. Petagna (25 years old; SPAL) in 2019-20 had 12G/1A
8. Krunic (25 years old; Empoli) in 2018-19 had 5G/7A
9. Aramu (27 years old; Venezia) in 2021-22 had 7G/5A
Soule is (much) younger than all of them, so he gets points for potential, but the theory that being the standout player in a relegated team is some big achievement does not stand IMO, because none of the guys above did something wow after their teams got relegated.

Olmo's salary its between 9 and 10M at the moment, I think in Barcelona he will earn arround 12M
At the moment Italy cant afford to compete in salary with the other big leagues, now more than ever with the "Decreto Crescit" been eliminated meaning that now clubs must pay more taxes.
On of the main reasons we are trying to reduce our salary mass and why we are trying to convice players to accept a pay cut in their contracts

Inter did the best job, brilliant squad to which they added two players who would start in most serie a teams. Completed those signings half year ago, which means they will integrate them easily.
Then there is Juve with big deals, which seem to be done wisely, if this will click we could have a great season.
Roma is doing pretty well, but they have so many holes in their squad, they still need many transfers.
Napoli, their biggest transfer is the coach, but can he really work together with ADL?
Milan, I think they aren't doing the right moves. I like Morata but he can't be their main striker for the whole season, he always has big dips in form, which last for few months. Pavlovic might be a good defender for them though. The question is can they sign Fofana.

Calciomercato #SerieB I @Palermofficial, the sporting director #DeSanctis confirms the interest for #Sekulov from @juventusfc: "the right name". On #Hasa and #Barbieri: "One of the two is interesting to us" [Di Marzio]
If we can sell Arthur and Tek this season that would be a great move for our salary budget
I believe they can be a boost for mid and low table premier league who want to try to break Europeans or to ensure them to stay at EPL
Southampton, Everton, Leicester, Wolves. 25 millions for both and 4-5 m net each(on average) are cheap even for these EPL clubs
