Isco was only a possibility previously because he wages were low - he's signed a new deal since then
We also won't sign someone non-homegrown

Yeah. We need to sell 4 non-HG players to be able to register one, I believe.
If we sign anyone in January, it'll be someone we can loan straight back out until the end of the season, in my opinion. So whether that's a young foreign player in Haidara or a young English player in Bayliss, Maja etc.

People on twitter are actually complaining that the club is too "white"
Vorm, Wanyama, Davies, Dembele, N'koudou, Sissoko, Janssen, Llorente.
At least half of these need to be let go by January to have any chance of improving the squad next summer.
With Dembele and possibly Wanyama leaving that leaves us with only 3 options in central midfield positions namely Dier, Winks and Sissoko.Davies and Sissoko are good/useful squad players and will be kept.
Vorm, Dembele, and Llorente's contracts will simply expire at the end of the season.
Janssen will be sold for a cut rate price this summer when he'll have a year left on his deal.
Wanyama and N'koudou's contracts run out in summer '21. We'll either sell them or lend them out.
Anyways, 3 will be expiring off our books with no effort at all, and 2 more with no need to move them on. 2 more are already more or less non-players for us. That just leaves Vic, and our only real need this winter (and one we already knew about): buy another CM good enough to join our squad rotation.
TLDR: we don't need to "sell" anyone. we only need to buy 1 cm, and even then, we could probably skate by with just promoting skipp.

Those 3 are squad players level at best. None of them is good enough to be a first choice CM at CL level club.
Signing 2 quality CMs should be a priority next summer.

Just fantasies at this point though since we've been trying to sell Nkoudou and Janssen for ages but literally no one will take them.Vorm, Wanyama, Davies, Dembele, N'koudou, Sissoko, Janssen, Llorente.
