United just spent 70m on Casemiro last year and as things stand, I dont see how they drop 90m+ on his replacement a year later.
Bayern and City won't over pay for players, and I'm guessing Brighton are going to want around 90-100m, so both teams probably won't make a bid.
Chelsea is the only team who has the money and a starting spot open in the mid, but knowing their habit of overpaying (lately) I'm wondering if Brighton try to fleece Chelsea.
Well, Caicedo would play alongside Case initially, but you're right. Especially since Utd currently has a gaping hole at both striker and goalkeeper and a seemingly FFP-restricted budget. It makes sense.
Them with Erikson/Bruno would be a formidable midfield.
I'm curious to see who they sign this summer as they need to fill 2 vital roles and it's not like there are many quality options at this point. With everyone around them addressing the issues in their squad I'd be nervous if I were a Man U fan.
