Why would he want to go to Juve though? There's no chance he starts ahead of anyone. Bench player? There are other clubs that'll offer him much better chances to play.

Hasn't he been mostly an impact sub at Sampdoria?

Costa to China is done for 85m pounds it seems

Very curious if any of Morata/Belotti/Lukaku will be signed hmm

Doesn't mean he wouldn't want to start though. But hey, stranger things have happened. Like Benatia happy to sit on Juve's bench.

Juventus plays 50 matches per year, I'm more than confident a player like Schick would see a lot of time, to be honest. It's a signing that makes sense, we don't have (m)any attacking options off the bench right now. Pjaca was our promising young player but he's going to be out for quite some time with a torn ACL.

Antoine Griezmann has agreed a £280,000-a-week deal to join Manchester United after Atletico Madrid's flop in the Champions League semi-final first leg, according to The Sun.

United will be forced to meet the £89million buy-out clause in the striker's current deal, but the Frenchman is Jose Mourinho's top transfer target heading into the summer.

Griezmann was concerned about the Old Trafford club's Champions League hopes for next season but has been given assurances over more signings.

seems legit

I don't hold a preference between Lukaku and Belotti, but we'll get Lukaku. I have no doubts.

The Sun might be the worst paper in the country. That report should be taken with a grain of salt.

But still, Griezmann is bound for United. Don't think he was ever a realistic Chelsea target nor do I think he should be, especially since we don't play any variation of formations with a "hole"/SS position. Which is by far his best position. Unless you want to buy him for a world record fee and play him out of position.

The kid is a sub at Samp right now. The deal being rumored is that we sign him and leave him at Samp for next season on loan. Or he could come and play for us since we only have 1 attacking sub, who has been injured for most of the season.

Plenty of playing time since he could play for Cuadrado, Dybala or Higuain.

iirc, release clause doesnt apply to foreign clubs unless both club negotiate that the price is good enough or the player himself pay his release clause ala Javi martinez which Griezmann will not do. If united want him they have to negotiate with atletico, they can't just pay something and automatically he is theirs

According to kicker, Borussia Dortmund are signing 17 year old French central defender Dan-Axel Zagadou from PSG on a free.

Zagadou would be the third player to transfer to BVB in summer so far, after Toprak from Leverkusen and Dahoud from Gladbach, both 12m € fee.
