Effectively swapping Sanchez for Aguero? It wouldn't surprise me with the clowns running our recruitment.
Yes, a swap, effectively, because I could see why Sanchez might do better in the role Aguero is playing under Pep's system, how he can also play out wide, and then use the transfer budget to address other areas of weakness.
Interesting thought Prez.
One additional thought, not necessarily linked to any such 'exchange' transaction, would be with regard to so many players being out of contract at the end of the season and being released accordingly.
We would need several defenders, at the very least and, whilst we might be able to bring in all of our targets, within any transfer budget restraints, our overall squad number strength could be reduced somewhat i.e. we might have good first line quality, but not much left over for rotational requirements.
Surely, in such a scenario, it would be the prime time for some of our youngsters to be drafted in, to "make up the numbers" and I hope the Club would see this as an opportunity to do this.
On the other hand, some of those with expiring contracts might be offered extensions
