Watched very little of him but does he resembles Ryad Mahrez? Got a glimpse of him the other day

I’m not really sure how he would fit within this side?

Watkins would make a lot more sense, from a needs standpoint.

He’s not a priority but if we could sell Lamela to raise funds and perhaps chuck them Skipp and Clarke on loan (presuming we think it’s a good move for their development) I’d love to do this.

Could work if were to play a 4-4-2 with son and Kane up top. He’s class, and if he’s really available at that price it shouldn’t matter it’s not a position of upmost importance. A true difference maker and match winner. He can play the 10 as can Stevie, his playmaking is great. Hope this is true.

He’d make a lot of sense tbf. Even though it feels like we’re stacked up on wingers. He offers a different threat to our current wide-men. More a head-up creative player compared to Lucas, Sonny and Bergwijn who are runners. Think the Mahrez comparison a few have made is spot on. Been a few championship players that were in reach that have gone on to excel in the prem in the last few years. Feel like Benrahma could definitely be the next one.

Absoloute baller. He’s the next Marhez but right footed on the left, would be a great signing and think with better players he’d easily make the step up. Doubt we’ll go for him though.

There's 100% room for Benrahma in the squad. We should have at least 4 wingers that we can rely on, just like every other top 6 club. Especially if we're planning on playing in a 4-3-3.

Not seen much of him but after this linked I watched a YouTube video.

I'm convinced his the lovechild of pele and messi. Youtube compilations are silly but he has the most impressive one I've ever seen!
He’s absoloutley class to be fair, could easily play well in the prem

If we can move on Lamela and bring this guy and a back-up striker in, then we’d have some serious options!

Lucas/Bergweign
Lo Celso/Dele
Son/Benrahma

Kane / C.Wilson or MurquI or Watkins

Spot on mate. Really think this is agents at work or just lazy jorno unfortunately but I’d absoloutley love it to be true as this kid is really special

I know they're different players but he looks better than Watkins imo.
So so different, both absoloutley quality in their respective positions. He’s more exciting for sure, he’s honestly so similar to Marhez it’s untrue but he’s just right footed and plays off the left but Ollie Watkins is a serious player too, great hold up play, good pace and movement and finishing, they’d both do very well for us or any other prem club, top top players both of them.

I’m not saying you’re wrong, but you’re saying we don’t have 4 “wingers” to count on right now? Jose loves Moura/Son and has shown faith in Lamela and Bergwijn has shown real glimpses of quality. I get it if he feels Sess is to be groomed at LB and Lamela is surplus, but I’m not sure if there’s really evidence of that to this point?

It’s been well documented in the media that he is looking to move lamela on and is open to it
