Absolutely have to get this over the line.
I can’t remember a signing that could be so important in relation to the importance of improving the position he plays, the player profile (age, talent, nationality), he brings goals and assists, HUGE marketing potential around his image for the club.
That’s before you factor in the current times and the importance of emerging strongly after this and potentially closing the gap, and then his existing friendships with players within the squad.
Literally ticks every single box imo.
