Should we be impressed with a 40m deal for a fairly raw Eredivisie CB? It's hard to tell, but Sanchez was touted for bigger clubs at the start of the summer. Also our talent identification used to be great; Bale, Modric, Alli, Dier, Eriksen etc etc then has been weak the last couple of years. Hopefully Hitchen is getting us in the conversation for better talent again.
A thought that occurred to me too, jair. I read that he'd played less than 50 games since he joined Ajax last year for less than £4m. Yes he could be the next Toby, but he could also struggle in the PL. He wouldn't be the first.
