It doesn't make any sense. Vuskovic won't take up a place in the pl squad. Ake will. Also can't go in the cl squad. So if we do bring in a 10 we have to sell a senior player.
We have danso, dragusin, romero, vdv, davies, takai who can play cb. It's the one area of the pitch we are stacked.

If ake came in he'd have to replace one of our over 21s cbs. Not vuskovic. We can loan vuskovic with no need to replace.

It's posted by a nobody, so it not making any sense makes sense ....

I am guessing that the club want to give Vuskovic the chance to develop further whilst Frank wants a ready-baked, full-experience LCB/FB to come in and hit the ground running. I think if we can get it done this is a deal which makes good sense for the 'now' personally.

There is also an option in which Frank has already seen enough of Dragon before and during Spurs to know he won't fit in with what he's trying to do.

Frank is very up to date with players.

Then he'd be a replacement for dragusin not vuskovic.

He would be a replacement for Vuskovic for this season, who would then replace Dragon if/when he departs.

You are missing the point. We'd have to sell an over 21 player to have space in the squad for ake.
Keeping or loaning vuskovic makes no difference to whether or not we bring in ake.
