If they bring in around £200 in sales there’s a chance.
Rashford, Anthony, Sancho, garnacho, malacia, Casemiro could bring in around £175?
There’s also the possibility of a bit extra coming from the onward sales of Elanga, Fernandez and greenwood which could bring in another 30-40m. Ifs and bits of course but it reduces the net spend a little.
Could yet be more surprise outgoings too, shaw, Onana, hoilund, baylindor.
With only domestic games to worry about we certainly don’t need a large squad.

It is worth adding that in the one season Mbeumo and Watkins were in the same side, they each recorded their second best output for a season, albeit in the Championship - 16 goals and 7 assists for Mbeumo, while Watkins got 26 goals and 2 assists.

Macko, if they can they will. I think there will need to be some clever accountancy to make it possible, along with moving on quite a few players.

It's not about the amount they spend it's who they spend that matters
I don't care if they sign three or four relatively unknown players for £100m if those players make the team better and help provide a platform for sustainable improvement.

There is a long way to go in the window Shappy but i don't think there will be a queue of teams lined up to spend 40 million on your 5 wantaway players.
But as you said, with clever accounting, I reckon you're probably right and they may spend that much.
Alot of other teams are exploiting accountancy loopholes. be rude not to.
