19m does seem like a lot to pay but he has youth on his side and obviously is seen as a player with bags of potential. Let's be honest, prices for players are only going to go one way, so whatever we pay for him now, worst case we will probably still get our money back if it doesn't work out and we decide to sell him in a year or two. But with a bit of luck and Eddie's tutelage we could end up with a 50m+ player on our hands. So plenty of scope for a decent return in the future and in the grand scheme of things not too much risk for the club. It's another transfer which fits into our apparent business model. I would rather see us taking a punt on improving young players than blowing these sorts of fees on journeyman players looking for a cushy payday. As I mentioned elsewhere, this might see us sending Mousset out on loan somewhere where he can be a regular starter. Then we will see if we have another star of the future on our hands. If Wilson stays we would have enough cover to let Mousset go out on loan and show us what he's got. Can see the sense in this purchase, even if Wilson stays, which I hope he does, at least until the Summer. If Wilson goes, Solanke could be a decent replacement, so all good.
