If we spend more than half of the Mitro money on Slimani, that would be a bad deal. We'll be lucky to get 2 seasons out of Slimani. If we sell Mitro e need to be getting Slimani and his back up.
If you genuinely believe that, then I see disappointment in your future. They will go for similar fees. They paid £30m for him, and they’ll want a big chunk of that back. We’ll only get more for Mitrovic if he is on fire for Serbia at the World Cup.
My hopes are that Mitrovic raises enough to pay for Kenedy, but I’m not confident.
If you genuinely believe a 30 year old with 8 premiership goals in 35 games is as valuable as a 23 year old with 10 in 40, then I don't care what you think.
FFS They'll get 5 years out of Mitrovic and still get their money back. We'll get 2 seasons (at best) out of Slimani and end up releasing him for free.
I bought a cheese sarnie for a quid in 1984, but didn't get around to eating it. Do you fancy buying it for 75p? It's still in the wrapper and everything.
Why would you only get two seasons out of him? And what if he scores 12-15 goals a season?
