To sum it up, there's a very small risk of losing money on a player like Fofana if we sign him. Very little. At worst, we break even, at best we secure a long term option for our left wing. Or we can wait so for example Dortmund get him, and we will increase the risk of financial loss if we start to get interested after he shows a good level at Dortmund.

The best time to make these moves is when you have a player like Raphinha having 60something goal contributions this season on LW.

Barca doing business with Dinamo sounds great. Olmo developed great here. Faye looked promising.
We could have had Modric, Guardiol first dibs in hindsight.
Our youth teams are regularly among the best in Europe so no worries about developing.

We can't compete with clubs like Dortmund and Ajax with talents who are in the 5-15M category, it is that simple. This has been the case since the Davinso Sanchez rumours.

Those clubs can bring players with clear plan and direction to the first team, Barca first team is just way too early and their B team is far too low.

You want to compete with those, we better buy a farm club in Eredeviese or Portuguese league.

Not sure why we haven't bought a farm club yet to be honest. Buying a team in either of those leagues or even France/Belgium couldnt cost too much.

Just another Ivan Cavaleiro?
