I don't see why we won't be able to sign at least one expensive superstar in the summer. by letting go of the likes of toni (3m plus 3m in taxes), iaq (3m and 3m in taxes) amauri 4m plus 4m in taxes) and Grosso (1.5m plus 1.5 in taxes), we will have cleared some estimated 23 million in our wage budget! and these were players we didn't even use.
even if we offer someone like Jovetic 6 or 7mill in wages (12-14 with taxes) and say Cavani or Hamisk the same thing, that would be around the 28 million mark. just a bit more than the amount we spent on those useless players, we could get 2 players that would make a difference in this team.
add to that the revenue from playing in the CL from being in it, increased match attendance, and new sponsorship deals, we should be in a pretty good position to sign atleast one superstar, or two even with competition from other teams.
and that's what this team needs. a world class signing or two to give us that extra edge. with the exception of a back up defender and maybe a back up CM, this squad is very deep. There is no reason why we can't focus on getting the classy signings this summer.
