Juventus soccer market, for Thiago Motta the first blow may come after his landing in the Bianconeri. The deal is almost blown. And the feeling is that the time is not ripe
The officialdom is missing, it’s true. But Thiago Motta next week should be announced by Juventus as Massimiliano Allegri’s successor. By now Giuntoli has decided to entrust the oriundo coach with the bench and the same, according to information circulating in these hours, is already moving to create his own Juventus.
From Zirkzee to Koopmeiners via Calafiori and Di Lorenzo. These would be the first requests arrived. On the former, however, there is Milan; for the latter, Atalanta is asking at least 60 million, and for the Napoli captain just in recent days the club has issued an official statement stressing that the player still has 4 years left on his contract despite the clear stance of Giuffredi, the Azzurri’s agent, who wants to take his client away. That leaves Calafiori, who at one point seemed an easy, almost obvious track. But apparently that’s not quite the case.
Juventus soccer market, Calafiori becomes more complicated
According to what tuttobolognaweb.it writes, in fact, Bologna, the club that owns Calafiori’s card, would like to keep him in Emilia next season as well. Moreover, right now the thoughts of the defender, reinvented by Motta as a central player, are all about the European Championship. And so should he manage to win a call-up from Spalletti – who will have to cut 3 from the list after Acerbi’s injury – a final decision would slip after the event in Germany.
In short, the Rossoblù, who will play in the Champions League next year after having an extraordinary season, do not want to lose Calafiori who has been one of the best during the year. Of course, in the end it could weigh most of all what will be the will of the former Roma player, who could also push for a farewell. We shall see.
