The cost of keeping Backlund is exposing Gawdin who won’t be claimed so the cost is nothing

The cost of keeping Gio is either losing someone playing better for cheaper (Tanev) or someone younger and cheaper who hasn’t reached their ceiling (Rasmus and Hanifin)

I think it’s very likely they expose Gio and I think Seattle maybe even claims him and flips him half retained for a nice return
