Buying from within the English leagues, especially the Premier League, would be an incredibly stupid thing to do given the advantage the TV money gives us over European leagues this summer. This advantage won't last forever, so we really need to make use of it and stop the disastrous transfer policy which resulted in a team chasing the Champions League bringing on Marlon Harewood.
Not as a replacement for Benteke but maybe for Weimann would be Gestede from Blackburn. Always thought he was a good player
I reckon Adebayor is nailed on too, with a younger striker also bring signed.
I reckon they will subsidise it for 12 months to get him off their books.

Someone worth mentioning from the Belgian leagues is Obbi Oulare. Raw, a crossing between Lukaku and Benteke, fee would only be 5m max and could turn out to be the next Beast in three years time.
