Money aside, I think if Alex leaves (it looks like at this point he definitely will), than we need to make sure that Zapata stays. I'm not a big fan of Zapata and I surely don't want him to be a starter....but we are not going to find a 3rd choice CB of his level. Definitely not one that we don't have to pay a transfer fee for.
I would let them both leave, and take back Paletta as our third choice. In all honesty, Zapata is too error prone. Paletta is slightly more reliable, even if he's a slower less physical presence.
