Think any team would be really lucky to pick him up for that. I think £45m - £50m is more likely for Paqueta because of his Brazil caps and because he's a goal scorer. You could say the same about Aouar I guess but his agent was doing fishy stuff.Alus ****ed up with Aouar, he was going for £50m and the. They had to sell him for peanuts.
Lyon have made quite a few signings on a free, no doubt that has pushed up their wave bill, plus they were badly effected by covid.
So they'll have to sell but if they ask for too much and there and no one bites they'll have to slash the asking price.
I think pauqeta could be picked up between £30m-£35m. I think thats the going rate for a good quality midfielder. Look at Fabio and Zinchenko.
