$5m in Cap ($2.5m in 20/21 and $2.5m in 21/22)

Arc to confirm.

Very difficult to move Salah but the prospects of Pulisic (with cap relied) and the pick payload certainly soften the blow.

Accepted, there’s no doubt I overpay for Salah, but he’s my fav player from my fav club. In addition, his potential at a big haul is a major reason I’m willing to spend so much for him, as he will act both as a FWD1 and a short-term carry for my FWD2 problem until I can secure a trade either this year or in 2021 to fill this slot.

Lastly, with a core group of starters between the age of 26-31 who has finished 10th for 2 seasons, I have 2 years at best to do an aggressive rebuild for a consistent playoff spot. Salah enables this aggressive rebuild method better than anyone I can wish for, but I’m still 1 or 2 major signing from reaching my goal for this season.

Pulisic has the ability to score 15+ G this season and developed close to 20+ G similar to the trends observe with Rashford/Martial. The only concern that both the Everton manager and I shared was with his current wage being very high and was a major stumbling block during talks. Great player otherwise, looking forward to see if he will be offer the 27M contract extension in 3 years time.
