Tchouameni looks most likely to come to us. I wasn't a big fan of Nunez until those two games against us, when he was amazing. Funny how players get signed after a good performance against the side that will buy him..(as if they hadn't actually been scouted for ages). Luis Diaz, Minamino, all the way back to Graeme Souness playing for Middlesboro when he almost crippled half the Liverpool team. A week later he was a red.
You wonder just how much money they have/are going to throw at it, De Jong is being allowed to move for a lesser fee by all accounts, but his release clause was 260m, so his fee will likely be at least 80m
As long as Jurgen is long overdue backed to get his top targets the transfer committee and data analysis side have all identified as fitting the model and FSG have arrived at the realisation that however good the recruitment model is, you do need to splash the cash for the top targets it identifies like your Alisson's and Virgil's periodically, every 3 or 4 seasons say
