If we want to fight for anything next season an attack of Lukaku, Cavani, Cunha and Esposito is nowhere good enough. Cavani is too old and injury prone to count on as a starter and Cunha couldn't start ahead of Schick and an underperforming Poulsen at Leipzig. But the problem is, apart from Werner, i can't see who could be a (realistic) solid Lautaro replacement. Aubameyang? Belotti? Dembele? I am not convinced about them.
Exactly, our attack would be lacklustre. Lautaro has the best workrate a striker can possibly have, but Aubemayang could bring something we lack, which is speed in attack and cause a lot of issues for defenders. I still think Aubemayang is slightly overrated in the EPL, but he's the only semi-realistic big name forward that suits our attack. He's also going to be 31 next month and eventually his speed will start to decline and that's a big part of his game.
I can see us in the end signing Cavani and someone like Cunha or Giroud, Perisic maybe comes back to the squad if Bayern don't redeem him and we invest the money into other areas like signing one of De Paul or Chiesa.
