Lokonga was Willocks replacement. Both 22 both CMs, Willock out for around £20m Lokonga in for £18m.
Odegaard was an addition to the team as we were clearly looking for a creative player, hence interest in Maddison. We obviously were interested in him for a while, and when RM decided to sell we were first on the case and for a good fee. The question was more Maddison Buendia or Odegaard, and for the price we got him for it’s a no brainer.
