First of all we won't spend 50m on him now, 10-15 max which does not affect the current budget.
Second of all - how is Zaniolo redundant?
Chiesa has a torn ACL and God knows how he will come back and when he will be ready for full load
Cuadrado 34 and probably leaving after this season. Di Maria same.
So the club for the first time in forever actually plans in advance and looks to the future to sign one of the best Italian talents right away is redundant all of a sudden? When are they supposed to do it? Next summer so everyone can moan how they let it come to the point of having to sign 3 wingers in one summer?
Zaniolo/winger is not an issue. The issue is most people don't like him, don't believe in him, too big of a risk etc. If we were after Antony or Raphinha or any other sexy name no one would care about 'prioritizing' a winger over a CB just as they didn't care about us signing Vlahović or Higuain or Ronaldo.

So we should talk about defenders when we have 8 of them already in the squad (MDS, Rugani, Gatti, Bonucci, Sandro, Pellegrini, Danilo, Cuads). While for Zaniolo position we currently have 4 players in Vlahovic, Kean, Di Maria and Chiesa with Chiesa coming back from an injured Acl.
Some ppl here lack common sense. Of course we need cb if de Ligt leaves, but after that the biggest priority is to buy at least one winger. And correct me if I'm wrong but all the journos are reporting we are currently looking for these two positions.

Or maybe Bremer prefer play in back three systems, little to adapt, so he can succesfully slot in rightfully. And this point is the concern of our management too.
We are both play in UCL so competition wise he can play in the highest competition, we are both title contenders so this is more of the logical thinking for his future development. If we believe in him maybe only money(salary) and De Ligt sale so it will give him space that will hijack him for us (Gatti is too young, Bonucci is too old and Rugani is not a competition)

People that say Zaniolo is redundant, or that Moggi post about him not fitting because he is a player who shoots and not one who serves, have you forgotten how difficult it is for our team to score currently?
We have an extremely low goal contribution from midfield. Locatelli is our most credible threat but he plays in front of the defense. Our fullbacks basically do not score, Alex and Danilo are defensive fullbacks. Cuadrado can contribute to scoring, as a defender or attacker, but Cuadrado is like 35, as is Di Maria.
We have a dearth of goal scorers and players who create chances. Chiesa does both things but again he is coming from a big injury. The other two wingers have 70 years old combined, they cannot play every minute.
Players like Pogba and Zaniolo that can create chances and finish them are needed. If Valhovic is our only scorer we risk to centralize most defenders attention on him.
We do need attackers.
