£150m + CL money + player sales...could be £250m+ in the pot to spend.
I wonder if now is the time to think about Kane's long-term replacement?
Don't get me wrong, we sign Kane up to another 4 years, but we also bring in a 'wonder-kid' for the future.
Or even a proven 23 or 24 year-old.
Anyone out there that fits the bill and how much would they cost?
Even if we dropped £50m to £60m on them, we'd still have enough to do the rest of the rebuild, especially taking into account free-transfers.
By all accounts, we already have this in Dane ScarlettYeah, we were definitely looking to bring Vlahovic in as a Kane replacement (for the long-term or if Kane left last summer).
I suppose the standout players currently are Christopher Nkunku and Lautaro Martínez, who are both 24 years old (both turning 25 in the next 6 months) and who have scored plenty of goals in their respective leagues.
As for younger 'wonderkid' players, 18 years old to 23 years old, I haven't got a clue.
EDIT: The post above mentions Jonathan David...I guess he could be in this category.
