Daniel Levy is a shrewd operator in the transfer market and unwilling to throw cash about willy-nilly. He did sanction the permanent signing of Rodrigo Bentancur and loan signing of Dejan Kulusevski from Juventus in January. But four first-team players left either on a permanent basis or on loan. Kulusevski has been an inspired addition to the ranks. And it was reported on Wednesday that Levy has green-lighted a permanent move for the Sweden international. The 21-year-old has bagged three goals and six assists since arriving from Turin. He is clearly a player to get the fans out of their seats and handing him permanent terms would be sound business.
