Nope. No way we were going for a player that will cost as much as he will. Also, with him being as injury prone as he can be at times, are anyone really going to pay those kind of money for him? FSG/Edwards/Hughes are far more likely to go for players that's not on everyone's radar imho.
We kind of need to rebuild because of a partially ageing and "washed" squad. Some of those legends need to stay to see over the transistion please (VVD, Salah). So we're not going to spend big on one player. Bit like how we didn't decide to even pursue Bellingham during the MF rebuild.
It's unlikely even if we raise £200m from sales. Cunha's release clause is half the price of Isak (£60m) but I don't think Isak is twice as good...so the former might be better value
