"Right now there are no arrangements to sign anybody, unless he discovers a genuine whiz like Mesut Ozil or Alexis Sanchez. He's searching for one of those yet there aren't numerous accessible.

"We would back him to break the club's exchange record. On the off chance that he needed the man, he could have him.

"Aside from Messi and Ronaldo, he could have any player. We will presumably need to break the club record to get the man he wants."
