Too much for what he's worth. Probably around €20m-€25m and he isn't worth more than €15m imo unless he is younger than I think he is (24-25). He does rack up the assists though but that number would probably drop in tougher leagues.
I would like a player of similar profile, an upgrade over Pepe's position who can cut inside from the right wing. And a striker. And we'll have to invest atleast 60m if we are looking for quality in these positions.
@Kyle: I think Flamini is set to get a new contract.
What do you guys think of Bastos coming in? I think he'd be a great addition to the squad. For both formations. Age is perhaps the only thing against him, but characteristics are top drawer.
I'd rather we have a compact and versatile squad with 22-23 solid, quality players, as opposed a squad of 30 players, of whom 15 are borderline mediocre.
