Maddison would be perfect as he can play CM, CAM or LW/RW. He is versatile. Just gotta hope we can keep him fit.
The players going to Saudi are all 30 or above, Muslim and on insane wages already. It's not surprising at all. Ruben Neves has been pushing for a transfer out of Wolves all season and was apparently in talks with Barca. Wages and transfer fee caused the deal to collapse. Neves doesn't wan't to be on average PL wages, there's only one place in the world right now willing to sign an OK player on insane money. Saudi Arabia.
Yeah, we need to steer clear of all that ****e if you ask me... Chelsea will come a cropper at some point, surely.
Adrien Rabiot is being linked, free agent, plays as CM, would be better than anyone else we have at CM besides Bruno and Big Joe.
Exactly once it get's to mid July and there's no signings I'll be worried but theres plenty of time left yet and loads of the players we will be looking at will be on international duty atm. Free transfers could be massive for us Raboit (CM) Cebellos (CM) Kamada (CM) Skrinar (CB) Ndicka (CB) Asensio (W) Thuram (w) Maitland-Niles and Nelson off Arsenal would be good also... 2 or 3 of those would be huge for us and allow a big marquee signing like Maddison.
in Thuram (Free) Rabiot (Free), Maddison (£50m), Szobolzai (£50m) Tierny (£30m) Out Fraser £5m, ASM £25-30m Net spend of around £90-100m depending on ifs and buts here and there.
