@themagic_tophat I struggle to see how the squad could now cost €1.4 billion, even considering the moves made last summer; as far as I know, many players have come off the books over the last two years.
@bobbyfairview Yes, I think so. There is the possibility that they might use Gomez as backup for Bradley at right-back and spend money on a centre-back instead of a right-back. But I would be surprised if they signed another centre-back and started the season with five centre-backs.
@bobbyfairview I doubt there is money available for that position unless Gomez is sold. RW, RB, and a defensive midfielder ought to be higher priorities.
@bobbyfairview I think other positions are more important and usually part of the purchase is financed by selling players. So it probably requires Gomez to be sold before doing anything at the CB position.
