“We are in a situation at the club where a lot of players have gone.
“We looked at potential and got a player for more than we would normally pay – because he had to be a Champions League worthy replacement.
“The one-on-one replacements simply cost a little more than the guys for the future.
“Ultimately, you have ambitions. You want to become champion and take the next step in Europe.”
