there is and will be....bring him in that gives you 4 guys who can cover the two wings as Kudus can play wide. It also gives you a guy who could play spot minutes when needed in the midfield as a 10. He's good enough to be a starting XI type of player but adds a ton of value to the depth. He's certainly better option than Elanga, Pellestri....
Sure. A use can be found for him, no doubt. But. This is a player with the potential to be a major force. It's also a player with the good kind of big ego, who clearly wants to be a big difference maker (ref his widely reported statements ahead of the WC). So, this is to my mind the sort of player you want to bring in if you can provide him with the sort of role that is commensurate with that. And I doubt we can. The roles we might need him for isn't the ones that will be optimal for him. And the things we most urgently need (top striker, Casemiro backup and ideally long-term replacement, Eriksen upgrade) aren't the ones he provides.
