Juventus drama, everything blows up: when the deal looked like it could be one step away from closing comes the news that closes the game
No deal, at least that’s what it looks like. And one of Juventus’ potential new additions, or at least because there has been a lot of talk this way, is expected to settle at another club. Even outside of Italy.
Giuntoli has tried – and until there is officialdom to the deal he will try again – but even after the words of Bologna’s sporting director Sartori, it seems difficult that Riccardo Calafiori could stay in Italy. To tell the truth, Bologna has confirmed that it will try in every way to keep him, but in front of the millions expected to arrive from the Premier League, it is difficult to make a wall. Impossible, in fact, let’s say. And apparently, according to information that has been reported by the Daily Express, there would be at least four teams in the English top league ready to sink the blow.

Four clubs, then, we were saying, who are looking to make a bid, with Bologna enjoying it because it knows that the cost of the tag could rise upward over the next few weeks. Four big teams, if you will, because on what was one of Italy’s best players at the European Championships (although it didn’t need that much) would be Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and West Ham. Who, we stress, have no financial problems of any kind, so they are ready to rise until someone gives up.
In short, under these conditions, it is very difficult, after the investments that Giuntoli is making in the middle of the field, to think that Juventus could also sink the blow for Calafiori. Maybe if he still remains anchored at Bologna, towards the end of the market, the Bianconeri might even reconsider. But for now, there just aren’t the economic conditions to think about it, despite rumors of Calafiori’s desire to stay in Italy and to find Thiago Motta, the coach who discovered him as a center back and made him make a decidedly important change in his career, on the bench.
