Wait are those 15 million a joke or does he actually have such a low clause or something?

He is running out of contract

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

Well if we can actually get him for less than 20 million he'd almost be a no-brainer.

Don't know if he'd be okay with spending a lot of time on the bench though.

I read offers of 20/25m for him.

 

[DAiDEViL]

Well...we did spend €25m for less talented players in the past @Mark

 

[Mark]

Felipe Melo and Diego was a long time ago and not Beppone.

 

[DAiDEViL]

Diego was way more talented than the player i have in mind

We can get Keita + another offensive player. Higuain, Dybala, Keita (and Mandzukic) for the central positions and Mandzukic, Cuadrado, Pjaca, new guy for the wide positions is good depth

Do you really hope to see Mandzu keep playing as LW? We need a true LW, and we need starter material for it. So no Keita except may be for rotation.

Mandzukic will continue to play LW, no question about it

Only reason we barely concede is due to hard work rate from our wingers, especially Mandzukic. That's why if we sign a player like Keita (or Sanchez etc.), who is lazier in defense, we need to change formation so we can add in another midfielder to the XI to cover for the defensive duties. If we sign a world class LW over Mandzu, I want him to have the ability to track back hard.

Mandzukic is one of the reasons the formation has been a success. In order to take him out, you'd need to add a player with equal workrate, but with more talent...not easy to find.

Keita would rotate with Dybala and Higuain in our 4231 i think

Mandzu isn't the only hard working player out there. I love him but he's no LW. No question about it.
