I hope Paratici can find a dynamic player with high stamina , servicable technique and footballing IQ for reasonable price to backup Matuidi and replace him in the future. We have had Davids, Vidal and Vieira (for a short time) in the past, and Matuidi right now, but none of our other players can fill that important role. We have failed with Lemina and even Can (he is too slow for B2B midfielder), but I think we should try more.
Kante and Allan are great players for that role but they are not young. Both of them will turn 29 next year, and getting them for 70M-80M is not the best financial solution.
