The way things are going, looks like PJACA #20 is the one who won't play in Turin next season. It's the deal with Bayern, loan + pay next year, that makes this possible.

CF: Higuain, Schick
SS: Dybala
Wingers: Cuad, Bernar, Costa
Joker: Mandzukic

To me it's a bit overkill but i guess i don't mind that much. At the end of the day i prefer to see Pjaca having lots of play time at Sampdoria/Verona/whatever, instead of waxing the bench at Juve with a 70 min appearance once every 9 full moons. Loan with no option to buy imo.

Or maybe Mandzukic may leave ? If Schick is great at training camp...

About this talented guy Orsolini, i think the chance of seeing him with Juventus next year is below 10%.

I really like Cuadrado, but if he is one to go then there is no problem.

Costa is probably better on the right, as is Bernardeschi.

This. We are not buying both Costa and Berna without selling. If both are coming Cuadrado will be sold. Arsenal and Milan are lining up to buy him. If we get $25M he is gone.

Lemina will certainly be sold to make room for a proper DM. One of Sturaro or Rincon may go to Fiorentina in the Berna transfer. If not Rincon most likely will be sold to another Serie A team to make room for Bentancur.

Bentancur is the real deal. He is a star in the making.

Pjaca is still recovering from his knee surgery. I doubt he gets loaned out. I'm sure Juve will want to keep him around to make sure his recovery goes as planned. They will most likely re-evaluate him in November-December. If he's fully healthy and needs playing time they can always loan him out in the winter mercato.

After struggling at Leeds United, player on verge of dream move to Juventus

Former Leeds United defender Dario Del Fabro is on the verge in signing for Serie A champions Juventus, according to claims in Italy.

On Friday, Cagliari brought in Marco Andreolli from Inter Milan, and Del Fabro is now expected to leave the Sardinian club. The Cagliari player is seen as one of the best young central defenders in Serie A, and a dream move to Juventus is said to be close.

Gazza Mercato have reported Del Fabro’s move to Juventus is imminent, with claims he will move to the Serie A giants on a permanent deal. The 22-year-old spent last season on loan with Pisa, and it’s expected Juventus will again lease him out next season to continue his development.

Del Fabro was one of many players to arrive at Leeds United from Italy during Massimo Cellino’s early reign at the club, but he played just a handful of games during the 2014/15 season.

Cellino and sporting director Nicola Salerno adopted a policy of recruiting from Serie A and B, and that summer the likes of Marco Silvestri, Giuseppe Bellusci and Mirco Antenucci also arrived at Elland Road.

Del Fabro was one of six players controversially left out of Leeds United’s squad by Cellino when they faced Charlton Athletic in 2015. Shortly after the incident the Italian defender exited the club after an unsuccessful loan spell in England.

Juve slam door on Alex Sandro

Juventus are slamming the door on Alex Sandro unless Chelsea or Paris Saint-Germain offer over €70m.

The left-back has been at the centre of a bidding war between the two European clubs this summer, so far reaching around €60m.

The only exception would be if someone were to come in with a bid worth a minimum of €70-75m.

Meanwhile, Juve are asking Alex Sandro to sign a new contract to June 2022, adding two years to his current deal.

More importantly, it would almost double his current €2.8m per year salary to €5m.

According to Tuttosport, the Bianconeri have decided that to sell would be a sign of weakness and are therefore determined to hold on to the former Porto star.

€60m Chelsea, PSG target doesn't want to leave Juventus

Alex Sandro doesn’t want to leave Juventus, according to the latest reports from Italy.

Tuttosport write that the Chelsea target isn’t interested in leaving the Italian champions, despite the €60 million transfer which is reportedly being negotiated by the two sides.

The Brazilian international is also liked by Manchester City and PSG, with Pep Guardiola known to be particularly enthusiastic.

Sandro joined from Porto two seasons ago for €25 million, and took a while to play up to his potential. He is now seen as one of the most promising full-backs in Europe, but Juvenuts have no intention of giving him away for cheap.

He has a deal running until 2020.

PSG looked to have accelerated for the 26-year-old, who scored three goals and made five assists in Serie A for the Bianconeri last season, by making a superior offer of €70 million.

The Brazilian’s heart was set on London, however, as he had already agreed to terms with Antonio Conte’s side.

by salmano9 Sun Jul 09, 2017 10:30 pm

I don't think that Pjaca is the one who will leave. It is very hard to see a player recovering from an ACL injury leaving in the summer.

1- Juve have faith in the player.
2- It is a risk for other clubs to have him.

What is going to happen is a mystery, because Dybala and Mandzukic just renewed this season, Pjaca is recovering, Cuadrado says he wants to stay, Schick could leave out on loan depending on Allegri's choice. And if both Bernardeschi and Costa arrive, there will definitely be no space for Orsolini.

So we will be taking Costa on a Coman type of deal.Fair enough.We spread the transfer fee and Bayern makes a profit anyway.

Like I've said if this summer is one when we keep all our stars thats a great mercato, anything added to that is a bonus.

We basically just need a new RB, a good CM (Matuidi can be a quick option) and at least one winger (Schick is already here for the CF rotational player)

If we get two wingers (Costa and Berna) and keep Cuadrado as well for the RB spot that would be greatest mercato ever. We basically go from no options in attack to having insane amount of talent in that department, we also fix the CM and RB problems.

Bentancur already done, Schick is done, Costa is 99% done, Bernardeschi will be done this week, same with Szczesny, Sandro is most likely staying, Matuidi is in the works, either De Sciglio or Cancelo will come for the right back, Lemina and Cuadrado will be sold to fund purchases, Neto already sold.

That's pretty much it. Is their something missing that we are waiting for?

by lucianomoggi Mon Jul 10, 2017 6:00 pm

what i believe to be happening is that we have This COSTA/SANDRO substitution on our left wing Which seems to me a good reaction from Juventus if the player himself wants to leave

we end up with a good substitution for the player and money left to bring BERNARDESCHI

Ex Juve director 'Keita has already agreed with the Champions'

Keita had already signed with Juventus. This revelation comes from someone who knows the Bianconeri environment very well. These are the words of Luciano Moggi to Radio Crc, "Juventus are still the favorites, the market that is doing is great and Schick is best of Serie A’s youngest. Otherwise let’s take Keita, who has already signed for the champions of Italy.”

A man who has been out of the game for years, but nevertheless always in the middle of speculation. Moggi’s comments seem to always have some clout regarding the market, and Keita’s transfer has been looming for years for the Roman club. Lotito is reluctant to strengthen Juve, but may have little choice in the end. As Lazio drag their feet on a deal, Marotta will be busy at the negotiation table for Douglas Costa and Bernardeschi, knowing that Keita on a free transfer would give Juve the last laugh...

Sky: Douglas Costa to Juventus done

Sky Italia is reporting that Juventus have a deal for Douglas Costa, and he should arrive for his medical on Wednesday.

The Bianconeri have been in talks for the Brazilian since May, but there has been an acceleration in recent days.

Bayern Munich confirmed today that a deal was close, with reports this evening that general manager Giuseppe Marotta will be in Germany tomorrow to finalise the deal.

Now Sky is reporting that the two clubs have agreed a deal for the winger, based on a €6m loan with a €40m obligation to buy.

Douglas Costa had already agreed a deal with Juve, so he should take his medical in Turin on Wednesday.

Sky reiterates that Marotta will be in Germany tomorrow, along with intermediary Giovanni Branchini.

@romeoagresti Says Marotta will be in Munich tomorrow to close the deal for Douglas Costa, player expected in Turin Wednesday for medical

The arrival of Douglas Costa would not preclude Juventus signing Federico Bernardeschi, according to reports.

Juventus will reportedly discuss Blaise Matuidi in a meeting with Mino Raiola this week.

Juventus do NOT want to sell Juan Cuadrado They want Douglas Costa, Bernardeschi AND Juan Cuadrado [GDM] [SKY]

by juvealbanian Tue Jul 11, 2017 7:32 am

So Douglas will probably be official today or tomorrow.

Now if we get Berna and keep Cuadrado that would be a fantastic mercato. I think Allegri might make him a RB kinda like Valencia of ManU, he has all the qualities.Add De Sciglio to that RB option then our roght wing becomes just as strong as our left (considering we are keeping Sandro.)

We are also linked with Keita Balde lately but I think we'll use that to pressure on Fiore to lower their demands. If they don't then we might just go for Keita.

So let's say Costa will be around 35 mln € . 30 already for Schick , 35 for Bernardeschi or Keita (the latter will cost a bit less) , 30 for a new CM and 10 for De Sciglio.

That's 140 mln €. Still finding it hard to believe we can invest all that without selling first. All we can do is offload just one CM between Rincon,Sturaro and Lemina but that's just (15-20 mln € profit).

by rincon Tue Jul 11, 2017 11:39 am

Even more than that. Add 10m to each of Costa and Bernardeschi, 5m for De Sciglio and then 10m for Bentancur.

So that's about 145m before a CM.

by salmano9 Tue Jul 11, 2017 3:05 pm

Well, according to the recent reliable sources, we are not being linked to any midfielder except for Matuidi. Even, with matuidi, PSG are not going to play easy ball with us due to our strained relationship. So, I do not think that we are planning to spend more than 15-20m for the midfield. I think that the plan is to have the same Midfield as last year (Khedira-Pjanic as starters) with Marchisio fighting for the spot with Khedira when he is fit, or having all three start when playing 433 or 352. Also, it looks like Bentancur is staying with us this season, so we could see a surprise in the midfield in Bentancur, who hopefully will do well. So, why do we need to spend a lot in the midfield? As you guys have been saying, sell one/two of sturaro, Lemina and Rincon and we will be set.

The priority would be to focus the right back position and left back position if Sandro decides to leave.

It seems that our focus is becoming more in the attack as we are being linked and closely following wingers (Costa, Bernardeschi). Marrotta wants to give Allegri lots of options in the attack.

by juvealbanian Tue Jul 11, 2017 6:42 pm

Costa's deal os rumoured to be a loan with option (no obligation) to buy. After a certain number of appareances it becomes obligation.

I was never a big fan of this move especially hearing about crazy 50 mln € fee but the deal is nicely done , it will not harm our finances and transfer budget in short term. Also if he comes without having to sacrifice any top player we have then why not?

Costa 6m
Bernardeschi 40m (potentially 13.333 looool)
Schick 30m
MDS 15m
Sczesny 15m

That's 106 millions without a CM.

Bentancur's transfer was paid by selling Zaza or something like that. Who cares anyway, the deal was done in January.
One or two of the 3 worst cms will be sold, so this will cover the arrival of someone like Matuidi. If no new CM is coming (which i believe is a stupid risk to take) then we have even more cash in the bank.

When you think about it, it's really not a question of money. We would'nt buy 2 wingers if it was the case, we'd concentrate exclusively on urgent needs which are RB/CM. Beppe made it crystal clear that selling Sandro was the worst case scenario and they have no intention of selling him.

by rincon Tue Jul 11, 2017 7:10 pm

Bentancur's deal wasn't done in January. That was Orsolini. Betancur was just signed now.

by rincon Tue Jul 11, 2017 7:12 pm

Costa doesn't count as 6m, he counts as 46m. His loan has an obligation to buy so its done regardless, its just a matter of splitting the payment. If we count him like 6, then he should also add 45m from the higuain transfer that we have to pay this year. Most of our transfers are not all upfront.

by Warrior Tue Jul 11, 2017 7:19 pm

Yes the player officially engaged on July 1st but i thought we activated the clause long ago hmm

Let's add 10m

About Higuain i like to believe he is covered by Pogba money. Douglas is not the same situation as what is rumored is 6m loan + option to buy 30-40m. So if he's shit we don't have to pay for him next summer.

116 millions it is... Now i think selling Sturaro becomes a necessity smoking
