That's the problem though, I think it will be difficult to get someone that a) you can trust, b) is happy with just being cover and c) not taking away significant budget from other areas.
Just comes down to the fact that everything is up in the air until we know what happens to Sakho. If he can be back in Sept then CB will be the last position we need to look at.
The Sakho thing is the huge caveat to all of this, but its the notion that they need to be 'content with being cover' is the one I struggle with.
Kolo doesnt need replacing like for like with another elder statesman, we can get another 'Matip' in and just allow them to scrap it out.
The player who's content with being cover is Joe Gomez.
If Sakho isnt available for a signifcant period of time then we need to get another first team CB in because if you dont you end up with
Matip taking Sakho's place
Toure taking Skrtel's place - this is the area of concern
Gomez taking Toure's place
...as I say it largely comes down to what happens with Sakho but if Kolo goes we need to be approaching it from a position of replacing Skrtel's minutes and status as 3rd choice CB rather than replacing Kolo's as 4th, cos Gomez has those boxed.
