Next season's squad costs simulation
TL;DR
- We need new DM, CM, CB and CF.
- Skriniar's new contract.
- Home-grown players are needed.
Breakdown;
Handanovic. Let's just assume he accepts that new contract with a lower wage.
Onana. Some of you might think he costs much, actually, he's "just" costing us 3.9m per season.
Cordaz. We are in dire need of home-grown players, and with Radu's leaving, we might desperately extend him.
Bastoni. Not going anywhere unless crazy offers come in.
Di Marco. A rare useful Home-grown. Definitely stay.
De Vrij. Still on the list as the replacement would likely stay in line with his costs. e.g. Bremer would cost us 10.5m.
New backup CB. I'd like Ranocchia to stay but he could be a starter for lower and mid-table teams. We might target a cheap backup.
Skriniar. His contract renewal should be a priority, not only to help us to spread the amortization but to keep our key player.
D'ambrosio. His professionalism and versatility deserve a new contract.
Perisic. Deserve the new contract.
Gosens. Quality "backup".
Dumfries. Depends on how much the offer.
Darmian. I'm happy I was wrong about him, hopefully, he'll keep performing.
New DM and CM. This would be our priority for the transfer window.
Brozovic, Barella, Calhanoglu. Key players. Should be retained to keep the continuity.
Gagliardini. On his last year's contract, selling him has been a daunting task. Since we are short in numbers for the central area, it won't be surprising if he stays.
Correa. Our top costing player. Currently not in sync with his contribution this season.
Sanchez. Might be replaced by Dybala but his termination won't be cheap either.
Dzeko. Many of us would like to see him go, but I don't think Inzaghi shares the same idea.
Lautaro. If we manage to offload unused and players out on loan at a decent fee, Lautaro might stay.
Some players are out of contract. If we manage to offload some of these players at a decent fee, it could save us €72m next season.
Regarding the transfer fee, it won't be easy. Although if we are able to get some capital gain for Pinamonti, the rest of the players are most likely to record capital loss. It remains to be seen if the objective is to get a €70m transfer net. Some of these players will be on loan with an option to buy that never gets triggered and will repeat until their contract run out.
Actually, we are doing okay. Our amortization cost has decreased immensely as some players' values are now fully amortized.
Our annual cost also decreases, this is equivalent and it can also be seen quite clearly that the quality of the players has decreased slightly compared to the previous season.
