If Citroen can't get Ogier or Neuville they would need to get one of the Toyota guys and seems like it's a happy relationship both ways. So yes, Paddon, Sordo and Evans are their next best bets - the only rally winners available - considering that Mikkelsen is already signed to Hyundai. It does not look good for Citroen.

I was suspecting a crazy silly season already ongoing but it seems all quiet on that front.
