Had a little watch of Singo after seeing the links. He looks exciting but incredibly raw. Lots of pace and power but at the same time I think he does take some heavy/loose touches that would see him in trouble in the Prem. I think that's it for me, I want to see someone who looks more polished in that position.

From what I've read about Nunez he puts up good stats but is really streaky in terms of consistency throughout a game at this point. A bit like prime Dele I suppose. Also worth bearing in mind you can put up monster stats in Portugal and it doesn't translate to other leagues. Vinicius...

I think he's a good prospect but he's too risky for me for what they would want which I'm sure would be 50mil+ not to mention I doubt he would want to come play back up to Kane at only 22 years old.

Ketelaere would be a better option for me as he could play with Kane in the Kulusevski spot as well.
Vinicius scored 18 in 32 games in Portugal and 1 goal in 5 games in the CL.
Nunez has 21 goals in 23 games and 5 goals in 9 games in the CL so far.

He is putting up much better numbers in both comps than Diaz, who many on here were creaming their pants over and who it only being the Portuguese league seemed to matter less.

He wouldn’t be my pick, seen people mention him quite a bit and I don’t think he has the technique needed for the league or our tactics. Fast and physical yes, but not enough finesse for what we need, he’s very direct. I know he’s young, but he also is very inconsistent and goes missing in games, often the big ones. He has potential but I’ve never been that impressed when I’ve watched him. I’d prefer a more technical player on the wings.

Surely the answer is Lautaro?
Purely as a forward I’d agree with you, I’ve always been a fan, and although he’s not perfect, he worked excellently with Conte. However if it was a choice of Lautaro or De Ketelaere + Dybala I’d go with the latter.

Dybala more than any other player we are being linked with currently can change a game and can give the squad a lift

If he is gettable it’s a gamble We probably should take

Still feel he’d be worth the risk on a free. He’s been Juve’s best attacker for most of the season, can be unplayable when on his game, is entering his prime and is a winner. Big fan of his. Hypothetically if we brought in De Ketelaere and Dybala I think we’d have as a good a front line as anyone in the league. (Assuming Bergwijn and possibly Lucas are off considering how little game time they’ve had recently)

100% worth the risk. He's a truly world class player available for free. And with the addition of Kulusevski we wouldn't be needing to rely on Paulo for every match.

Can't imagine we'd turn down the opportunity to sign him, rather I just think he'll decide to go elsewhere.

Just out of curiosity and because we have been linked to all three, who would people rather have Nunez, Lautaro or De Ketelaere? They all have positives and negatives imo and as said previously all are good options IMO.
De Ketelaere. He’s young, versatile, hard working and comes from a league that nearer to PL in the physical sense than the Portuguese or Italian leagues. I think he could be a revelation for us in the same way Kulusevski has been.

Only issue I can see is salary £222,000 a week. Usually have to pay them more when on freees

Three really good options.

All else equal, I'd definitely pick Lautaro. Proven goalscorer in Italy and Europe for several years now. Very strong in the air (we lack this completely). Has a strong connection with Conte and was at his best playing in his system. He'll definitely score double digit figures playing on the right with Son and Kane.

Financially you have to think that money would be better spent upgrading at centre back and wing back, but if Conte is hellbent he can win with him I hope we can get it done. For the 70/80m it will likely take us to get him I'd rather see us go for a world class wing back like Theo Hernández or Hakimi instead.

Martinez would be expensive. Seems like there are some links with Lukaku going back there so they’d have a replacement.

Bit late to the party, but re: Nunes - looks decent apart from seemingly not having a clue how to stay onside, and falling over everytime someone dares to breathe in his general direction.

Schlotterbeck
Gvardiol
Bastoni
Botman

is my order. As discussed in threads on this forum historically, I think he (Schlotterbeck) provides everything we need on the ball whilst also being a fantastic defender.

Botman’s going to Milan according to Romano.

Replacement for Romagnoli? He’s a player I wonder if he’d be on our list. Out of favour at Milan, but was skipper, so a bonus to have a leader in the backline. Available on a free this summer.
