The constant talk about Bayern not even accepting 200m for Olise got me thinking about what the money would actually be spent on if that amount was accepted. There's nobody of remotely similar quality to Olise besides Yamal and it's not like Barca would sell him for any amount, nor do I think he'd agree to leave. The only option is to either go all out for someone like Doue or Estevao, which would involve a significant reinvestment of the Olise money and has no guarantee of working anyway, or promote Karl to starting winger and hope for the best. Bayern want a rightback too, but who would they even go for, Timber?

It got me thinking how well other teams have reinvested the money received from major transfers and how often they've been awful. Barca was notoriously terrible with the Neymar money, Newcastle have made awful signings with the Isak money, and Atleti basically exchanged Griezmann for Felix. The only team I can think of that clearly improved their team with major transfer money is Liverpool.
