With a war chest of $165 million after the sales of Pogba, Zaza and Pererya we should comfortably afford to do this and retain our super club status...

Buffon
Barzagli Bonucci Chiellini
Alves Khedira Pjanic Kroos Sandro
Higuain Dybala

We are not getting Kroos imo....

I wish Xhaka was still available tbh...

Matic is the most realistic option. We might probably sign another highly rated young CM like Diawara or Bazoer and loan him out.

Matic would be nice but something tells me Marotta has something bigger in store. With $120 million in his jeans, he better have.

We can afford Matic, a top CM and a top CF with our $165 million kitty (Pogba, Zaza, Perarya sales)...

So potentially:

Higuain-Dybala
Alex Sandro-Pjanic-Witsel-Khedira-Dani Alves
Chiellini-Bonucci-Barzagli
Buffon

versus

Mandzukic-Dybala
Evra-Pogba-Marchisio-Khedira-Lichtsteiner
Chiellini-Bonucci-Barzagli
Buffon

Adding:
Higuain
Pjanic
Dani Alves
Benatia
Pjaca
Witsel

Losing:
Pogba
Morata
Cuadrado

So we lose one first team player and add several (theoretically). This is the strongest market we could have had. I know what you're thinking, how is that possible with Pogba leaving? Lets pretend that was inevitable, for arguments sake, we could not have done more.

Marotta and co get a 10/10.

Too many good and exciting players.

Benatia > Caceres
Higuain > Morata
Pjaca > Zaza
Pjanic = Pogba
Dani Alves = Cuadrado
Witsel > Padoin

I rate this mercato 10/10. The plan is entering is final stage.
