Reading reports from Spain (Marca, El Diario) that Alonso will move to Atletico Madrid this summer!

If he goes, who should replace him - both in a banned or non-banned situation?

Also, any of the eds able to substantiate the rumour?

Banned has to be Jay da Silva coming back from loan. I would absolutely love to add Alex Telles to this squad in order to provide width down the left and he would be my choice in a non-banned scenario.

If we don't appeal then i'd still sell him and have Jay Dasilva as backup to Emerson. That's if Jay would be willing to be a backup. If we appeal and can buy then i'd go and get Telles, he's pretty much turned into the new Hulk with us being linked to him every window. He'd be an excellent signing though, has everything you look for in a modern day full back.

Chilwell would be my first choice if the ban remains. If not then Aina first then Da Silva. Aina has proved to be a very versatile full back for Torino but I’ve heard he’s signing for them. Think Chilwell is quality and the more homegrown we have the better. If not him then Telles.

Even if the ban remains and we can offload the likes of Zappacosta, Alonso, Drinkwater, Morata and Bakayoko we’ve still improved the squad.

No worries if Marcos Alonso has agreed a deal to join Athletico Madrid- as long as Athletico pay £70m for him.

I’d take 7 million personally. But I think £20 million would be a fair fee.

20 mil for a goal scoring LB . no way has to be higher . but id like to stay away from discussing money.

he has done well for us . id like for him to stay and compete with emerson if the ban stays. i think if we had a good striker he would do even better in the attacking phase . defensivly he can do much better.

I think this Alonso's sudden desire to join Athletico Madrid feels like tantrum that he's throwing against Sarri and the club; but I honestly think that it won't help him cos it's coming at the very wrong time.
