I think it's a great move getting Onana and Gana in. Takes the pressure off Onana, as Gana will play a lot of games in the deep central position, giving Onana a chance to bed in and learn his trade in EPL. Then hopefully next season Onana becomes first choice in that position.
Get a striker now and I'll be a happy bunny

Didn't felli have an injury when we signed him?
Interesting comparison from an interview with Thomas Buffel who coached Onana with Belgium under 21s (interview was done when it looked like he was going to West Ham)
Buffel added that Onana is reminiscent of Marouane Fellaini for his huge frame and potential to play further forward in midfield even though he has has been described as an anchor man.
“West Ham will not have happened overnight. They pay for his potential, and he has it,” said Buffel. “Amadou is taking steps forward quickly. Amadou is a calm boy – an important quality. Also a leader figure. He is not our captain for nothing. He can inspire his teammates and puts a lot of energy into his game.”
“Amadou is reminiscent of Fellaini, especially in stature. He can also play in the ‘ten’. He won’t do two man dribbling, but with his infiltrations and length he can be dangerous in the box. We’ll see what role West Ham has in store for him. His versatility is an asset. The ‘six’ and ‘eight’ are more his natural positions. He has tremendous athleticism – ideal for the Premier League. As an attacker, you can never get rid of him,” he added.

Yeah that's a huge deal if true for them. If we are paying 30m for a young player with huge potential, we'll be thinking we can double our money in 18/24 months if all went well. They'd then be looking at another 12m heading their way.
Good business from Lille.
Man, can't believe he's only 20. Such a composed, mature and intelligent lad.
Surely this is the kind of signing that people have been talking about for so so long.
A young player that hopefully will develop into a top player, not cheap but not terribly expensive either.
In a couple of years we could have the tallest central midfield in the premiership with Onana and Onyango.
He is young and will make mistakes but it is now up to the coaching staff to develop him and Lampard does know something about midfield play.

Brilliant interview from him. Yet another leader in the making too, captaining Belgian's U21s. After watching that, it makes perfect sense why he'd pick us over West Ham.
Don't want to jump the gun, but there's our manager for the 2042-43 season.
Not only a midfield but the BEST midfield in the EPL....
