Coutinho over GLC is the worst outcome of that trio IMO. Just think GLC fits the jigsaw better, but accept he hasn't done it in the prem.Hercules:
Yanited were never going to pay what we wanted, and got told they offered below 50m, but we allowed them to speak. Coutinho loan is/was insurance of CE left after the window.
Told Dybala/GLC/BF does not depend on selling CE. Dybala especially is structurally a 5 year payment plan, in line with his contract. See this as 50/50. Player keen, but obvs financials only possible issue. Told Betis accepted our payment proposal now. But if we get Dybala & Coutinho. for example, we wouldn’t pursue any other in that area.
Aurier will only be allowed to go if we can bring in a RB.
*Until it happens, apply caution*
