Any fee we get for him is a bonus. We just want him off the wage bill. He’s a complete write off as a player for this club. Disastrous transfer. If we can get between 3 and 5 million for him, and remove his 100k per week from the wage bill, it’ll be brilliant.
Just shifting on De Gea, and getting Onana in on half the money, and moving on Telles, Jones, Tuanzebe, and Bailly, is shifting some deadwood that was just a complete drain on finances. That’s probably half a million a week saved; the majority from players that contributed zero.
If we can shift on Maguire, VdB, McTominay and Fred. We’ll save tons in wages too, for players who would be fringe this year. They could be completely covered by bringing in Amrabat (20m), Hojlund (50-60m), and we’ll need a young Center half to be 4th choice. But by god, the squad will be so much better, and so much negative drain removed from payroll.
