i doubt. they want to keep him as long as they can probably. look how they refused to sell Lewandowski. they president said that they will earn more money from the CL with Lewa in the squad than if they sell him for 20M... they will keep him for the next season, and i think they will try to keep him even longer and offer him a contract extension. if he wants to leave however, there's nothing they can do and he can chose where to play next as everyone in Europe would be after him...
I'd be surprised if we have 35M to spend from our own budget, and splashing it on 1 player when we have absolutely no other Wingers for depth and only 4 midfielders for 3 places would be reckless

Why cant we sell players to balance the books?!
I rather we sign 1 or 2 great players for the sum we buy 8 players which 7 of them probably going to be useless/not taking us forward anyway
If we turn to 4-3-3 then...we don't need to take a CM because we will have Asamoah for the position!
LB--> Rodriguez
Wingers-->Sanchez,Nani or Cerci (+Giovinco,Pereyra, Pepe-not sure for him-)
CF-->Gabbiadini
once we transition to 433 and acquire the right personnel the gates of consecutive CL quarterfinals and semifinals will finally be opened after so many years. I'm excited
I really love the thinking here...
Lets change to 4-3-3 and then we will win everything.. We will beat Real 8-0 we will outplay Barca at Camp Nou (whatever its spelled like)
hell we even have better possession than Bayern at the Alianz Arena... (exaggerating of course...)
The truth is yes we need wingers but only because our game is too narrow and not fast enough!
We can win with every formation if we have the right players
There is not really the "best tactic" as tactics are used to get the most out of players and also to counter other teams tactics
I`m not saying I`m not in favor of a change as in this case I agree there is a need to but the thing is we need to change more is our way of football!
We are too predictable and too slow! It can work in Italy when teams arent good enough but in europe when teams are more prepared it will be tough to win without a higher tempo, without players that can make the difference!
Sanchez is the kind of player we need as he is fast has a great movement
Eto Could be brilliant for us even if many here would only consider him as a backup! He could really surprise as he is the kind of players we lack!
We need two kind of players ones who are fast and create havoc and ones who can hold up the ball when needed and set plays! Pirlo is good but he cant do everything!
The best we could aspire in this market is Di Maria (if Real agree to sell him of course). Sanchez could be really good even if I like forwards to score more
Cuadrado is another kind of player who can cut in and create problems to our opponents.
Its not necessarily 4-3-3 but a change of the way our team think is!

no one is saying we will beat Real Madrid 8-0 but with a more modern formation suitable for Europe (433) we could cause way mor problems vs the Madrids, Bayerns, and Barcas. It's easier to find wingers than it is to find wingback a who can attack and defend. There is no such thing as a magical wingback with superb dribbling and passong ability. We must adapt to Europe and we need Sanchez-es que players on order to field a 433.
NO ONE IS SAYING THIS WILL BRING THE CL. It will bring in better performances and results however tht I can assure
sorry to break it to you but the 352 has taken us as far as possible in Europe
just to make things clear - why everyone thinks 352 is bad in europe?/why 433 would bring success? i think our formation was not a cause of bad results
