Striker is going to be the hardest position for us to strengthen in my opinion.

A lot of other big clubs are also after strikers and there's not that many top quality ones available.

Higuain: would cost a fortune and Chelsea are also chasing him.

Aubamayang: big asking price (60m+) , he also favours a move to Real Madrid so unlikely we'd stand a chance.

Lewandowski: Wanted by Real. Would Bayern even sell? and if they did would he want to come to us?

Benzema: More likely to spend next season playing handball in prison.

Lukaku: Is he really good enough? And for the prices being thrown about is he worth it?

Lacazette: Again, is he good enough? As the Eds have pointed out Lyon are a nightmare to deal with.

Ibra: Huge wages, even bigger ego. Undoubtedly has the quality and the physicality to play in the prem but at his age and with his difficult personality it could be a case of the risks far outweighing the potential rewards.

Alvaro Morata: Big prices being quoted but definitely has the quality and age is on his side.

Lucas Perez: Can he step up to the level required? He's shown he's a top class player but teams will play completely differently against us than they do against Deportivo. His link up play is good and so is his movement off the ball. Any of the Eds have an opinion on him?

Icardi: Not quite reached the level this season as he did in the previous but could be a good addition for sure. I'm still a little sceptical about his ability but would represent a step up in class than Giroud. Inter saying he's not for sale, but based on info the Eds have given out it seems they'd be open to letting him move on.

Cavani: Big wages, big fee and PSG unlikely to let him go now Ibra is leaving.

Bakambu: Can he step up to the level required? Also would he suit our style of play? Marcelino has his team play a vastly different style to our own and it could be a case of the style getting the best out of the player.
