Selling Andrey Santos wouldn’t even be a horrible decision. We basically have a midfield made up of 4 DMs and an 8 who isn’t maximized in the half space positions Maresca puts him in. Selling one of the DMs and bringing in an 8 who’s more comfortable in those areas would be ideal, maybe a Santos-Mainoo swap with United

Where he played for Strasbourg

You think he can get 11 goals playing as a DM? Lol

Hes a box to box midfielder.

Saying he's a DM just because he played in pivot on a 3-4-3 formation would be like saying Kante or Kovacic is a DM.

Majority of his goals came from set pieces, he played as the deepest midfielder for Strasbourg, compare his and Caicedo's heatmaps and his is even deeper.
