I think there is enough time to replace him, but the issue is highlighted by Neymars transfer. Barca got £200m for him, but will need to spend most of that on a replacement. They would have managed to get a replacement for far less earlier on in the season, same with Coutinho. Why spend the full fee on a replacement when you could sell him early next summer, find a replacement way before that, at half the price and keep a huge slice of the fee for additional players.
