There are bigger fish to fry, like gate attendances and sponsorships.
What if spend 60 million on a striker who is no better than Havertz? Or not a better fit for us than Havertz? Very, very few strikers will do a better job for us than him. A striker to replace Jesus and give us two viable options at centre forward is a great idea. But there seems to be an assumption that we can chuck out 70 or 80 million and get ourselves a Haaland or an Isak. That is a big, big ask.

No doubt we will sign someone. But from what I have seen of this Zubimendi, signing him will likely improve us in a way that no striker will.
