So I think that we'll get a total of 6 players in addition to theo, krunic, and bennacer.

2 for defense
2 for midfield
2 for attack

Of each of those 2, I think 1 will be someone who can start or come off the bench, while the other will either be a youth player.

So 3 good buys, and 3 kids.

So Bennacer, Krunic & Veretout combined will cost less than Barella.

Shrewwwwwwd

 
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Milan have closed the Bennacer signing from Empoli for €13M+bonuses

That really is a bargain. People were complaining about Maldini yesterday :lol:

Corriere di Verona - Milan, next week new contact with Chievo for Vignato

Would be good to get him. We could potentially have a promising bunch of young players with him, capanni , maldini, the young Danish GK

Yes that would be fantastic. If that young Danish GK Jungdal is any good why not just have 2 GK and he can be the third. If we're keeping Gigio that is - he only misses a few games a season. Plizzari is not injury prone either.

It's different if Gigio leaves and we get Perin (swap with Reina), then in addition to Plizzari an experienced 3rd keeper is a must as Perin is injury prone.

Please tell me who they are. I’d like to feed them my balls.

Oh don't worry, they'll appear again once a slightly negative rumor comes out. Or if another Veretout rumor appears :lol:

Praet is a good player, relax bro. Rather sign praet than veretout

Tbh in my opinion, our biggest concern is
CB and SS

Just wait.

I agree with signing krunic and bennacer for probabile around 22 24 mil but paying 25plus for praet or verepoop is just crazy

We currently have 7 midfielders, that don't look bad at all. We just need about 2 more with one starter, and the starter will most likely be someone with Veretout's characteristics.
Praet is unlikely to come.

It's official. Maldini is the true heir of Galliani. That's excellent business.

Luan Capanni is interesting because he only joined Lazio last season - how is able to come to us on a free? He's also really tall at 1.9m so I wonder how he is able to play as TQ and SS.

I'm guessing they had him only on a youth contract and it was only able to be a one year one since he turned 19. Transfermarkt lists him as without a club now.

Tare forgot to offer him a professional contract. Or maybe he's awful.

I expect at least 8 midfielders in the squad not including Paqueta. We are going to play a heavily midfield oriented system, and we barely have 4 decent ones currently.

So I don't rule out both Praet and Veretout.

Prade is going to have to drop his demands, Veretout has asked to leave and no one is getting close to 25m.

Veretout, Napoli defila: Fiorentina's request is too high
05.07.2019 12:25 by Enrico Ferrazzi

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Napoli has slipped away from the race for Jordan Veretout: behind this decision there would be too much demand from Fiorentina, who asks the French for 25 million euros. The Neapolitan club would have reached a maximum of 15 million.

Ah that makes sense. Let's hope Tare messed up then.

praet is shit, we need to reach cl and we won't do that with praet

To reach CL we need to be better than Atalanta, Roma and Lazio. We are better than them without any transfers. Obviously if Giampaolo delivers unlike Gattuso

You know I won't complain about having both of them, I just think that if we get Praet then it would mean that Bona or Hakan won't see any minutes, and I'm kinda expecting Hakan to have the same role/development that Praet had with Giampaolo. And I love Bonaventura tbh. Krunic can also be that player. So we have options)

Also, I don't see us paying that much for both Veretout and Praet (I thought we would before I knew what Krunic's skill set was).
We still got other gaps we need to fill, especially since we only have 2 healthy CBs, one of whom isn't very solid.

You're excluding Paqueta as he'd be a TQ and are saying at least 8 players in the squad for the 3 true midfield positions? That seems excessive for 40-odd games.
