It's not if we'll be broke after it but how many players would we need to seel and who do we replace them with to make this happen. If you have to sell Pjanić, Sandro, Rugani etc. for this and then replace them with 'jabronis' then you didn't make much of an improvement. CR is best in the world, but even he couldn't win CL until RM started acting like a team and completed the roster around him.
Calcio e finanza predicts that if transfer fee is 105 million, contract 4 years, 68 million gross (30mill net) he would cost us 96 million ANNUALLY. For comparison, our 3 highest paid players (Higuain, Dybala, Costa), cost us less than 70 million.
Ofc, they also say we would see an increase of 30% from marketing, then ticket prices just got higher, more CL and TV money etc. We recorded a loss of 32 mill last year, with CR that would go to 126+. If we have best case scenario in revenues from stadium, marketing and TV rights we would need another 45 mill from player sales to break even, 25 if we win CL. So while it's not impossible financially, I just hope we don't deplete our entire team for this pipe dream. CR is CR but we can't put a Can-Bentancur-Khedira midfield behind him just to make it happen.
