We cannot buy anyone else (apparently) until we sell. Sadly.

Trossard is leaving this summer - being reported now
Fenerbache have bid for Zinchenko too so hopefully these two going would trigger a deal for Eze (if we pull our fingers out)

Always felt Trossard was likely to leave. Can’t knock the value we’ve got out of him given his productivity.
100% agree. I think he has use as a squad player, but the player himself wants to go. And I don’t think he owes us anything so good luck to him wherever he ends up
Just a transfer fee
Should get at least 20m I would have thought. Whoever signs him is getting an instant impact for their team.
Oh dear, Ben Jacobs has just tweeted that Spurs are moving and we are waiting, with the focus on player outgoings.
Also Nwaneri is viewed as a no. 10 option.
Same old Arsenal.
A lot of fans are angered by this (probably because it’s Spurs) but personally I see Eze as a bit of a luxury signing because although he’s quality I don’t know exactly where he’d fit in for us realistically. Squad depth would be brilliant but you don’t buy a player like Eze as a rotation option. At Spurs he goes straight into their starting 11 no questions asked so I can see the appeal of that for the player. Plus there has to be a show of faith for Nwaneri and even Madueke to a degree who can perform similar roles to Eze.
Also, we simply have to get players out the door and my guess is that a lot probably won’t go until closer to the deadline.
Because having Eze would give us another dynamic and strengthen the squad.
We haven't actually strengthened much - we have instead been replacing (5 players out, 6 players in - 1 up from last seasons short squad)
I would say it's more a necessity rather than luxury
For weeks now, the talk was that we needed a LW and Eze to help bolster the attack. That was even after Madueke came in.
That would make us serious contenders, but as usual, as we get near to doing what is necessary we pull back a bit and do just enough to be there or there abouts.
I hate to admit it, but Odegaard's creativity looks like it has dried up and someone like Eze is clearly needed. Nwaneri is not there yet to be the replacement, he still has some naivety about him at times.
We should get the players in we need and then worry about selling the ones we don't after.
Eze could have been signed by now - after that I don't mind them working on the outgoings for the rest of the window.

It clearly doesn’t work like that, Liverpool have had to raise considerable cash to make their bid for Isak workable
The difference is they’ve sold off players that were constant parts of their first team squad, we are mainly trying to sell those who are on the periphery
