It’s a tough one.
He’d cost up to £30m but at 29, they’d be so little sell on value. We just don’t make these sorts of signings.
However, he’d surely be the best possible replacement for March we are liable to sign. He knows Derzerbiball inside out and is inspired by our man. He’d be very good...
I’ve pondered this and I think it’s virtually impossible that we’d sign him because there is absolutely no value in paying €30m when he’d need a long contract (to at least 2027) on top money. Once that contract had expired, he’d have no sell-on value.
BUT, I’ve also decided that he is the best...
If only Berardi could find that special club…

A manager who would love him and knows him inside out.
7 goals in Serie A so far...
A left footed right winger like those two and someone De Zerbi absolutely loves.
The issue would be him playing second fiddle to March? Palmer is very young so would not expect to be 1st choice and Kudus can play in multiple positions.
That said, if RDZ requested him, how could the club say no?
