Getting a versatile Fullback might solve a hell lot of problems for us:
Gives us a good Balde competition/rest.
Gets us a starter RB.
Kounde can be moved to CB where he prefers too play. And even though he's having a mare of a season, I still think he would do better than Araujo and maybe Cubarsi this season.
Eric remains as the main RB backup, also one of the RCB backups aswell.
3 birds, 1 stone.
Vanderson maybe? Think he was rumoured at 30m last season.
Similar to 2024, I am expecting us to have around the same budget that we spend for Olmo. Plus, Lewa will be out, so we have a massive wage budget availbale. No more, registration issues. No more renewals left, as far as I can remember? So we can use that whole Lewa wage bill for new signnings.
Ter Terrorist, also leaves.
Araujo most probbaly leaves. I am sure we can get atleast 15m for him. Also his wages are free.
Vanderson : 25-30m
Rashy : 20m + variables.
Schlotterbeck : 40m
Total : 85-90m
Maybe we can do some variable shit with the Shlotty deal too. Reducing it by 5-10m would be feasible.
That leaves us with a striker.
The season is still young, and we had a lot of injuries.
But I honestly still think,
Rashy --- Rapha --- Yamal would work great for us. We havent seen it still, because of injuries and whatnot. There are a lot of games still, but I think we will eventually try this. And come to accept it.
There isnt a striker on the market that can be had for 40m. Maybe Kane, but he probably will be 50m and thats a strech.
