Does anyone follow Monaco closely? If so I'd be interested in thoughts on Fabinho. He's a player I've kept an eye on for about a year, watching him here and there and wonder if he's a player we should be going for. He's a RB, but also plays in central midfield (or DM) and imo generally seems better suited to the role. He's physically very capable, can play DM and box to box and has the ability to play with the ball at his feet (has good passing) and dominate with his athleticism. Honestly, there's a few areas I think he can improve, more offensively than defensive, but overall based on what I've seen, he would compliment our side really well.
Btw, Monaco had him on loan for 2 years and brought him outright this past summer for I believe 6m, but his current market value is more realistically 15m (though with interest from English clubs, inflate that to around 20-25m). Honestly, with all the players linked to Milan of late, I really don't see one that makes me believe they would perform better than Fabinho in this side, even Banega who I think we'd need to change system for.
