Lots of rumors that we want Dzeko too


I really hope we don't get Dzeko, his age is a concern in the long term. I'd rather have Milik who wants to be with us and is waiting for the bid. Tonali is probably already set for Inter Milan, as we're heading towards Lyon's Aouar. I'm really concerned Paratici is not going after any RB. Danilo performances are terrible and he can't stay fit at all. I see we're looking for Luca Pellegrini being the new starter as LB, but i'm not convinced. Let's see...

Does anybody know whether Khedira will retire?

This is the problem that "big" teams who pay more wages than anyone else have.


Today Pirlo confirmed he spoke with Higuain and revealed they agreed his time with Juventus is up. That’s a relief.

As for Khedira, Pirlo said let’s wait until he’s no longer injured...whatever that means

Looks like Kean may be returning. Never should’ve sold him in the first place, but if I’m the end he returns and we make money off it then kudos

They would send A. Ramsey in exchange to Everton.

American, Weston McKennie, is going to Juve.

depending on what happens with all those mids there at Juve,
Weston could b #1 bench midfielder,
or even get spot starts.

hes a box2box CM.
operates best with a DM behind him and an equal CM, or a more offensive CM next to him.
i guess hes similar to Vidal.

if he succeeds, he can b on the Pulisic hype/growth train.

He won't retire and won't quit on Juve. His wages are far too big for him to leave that easy. I've hated him for the past 2 seasons. Dude can't stay fit at all and he's completly washed. Should be headed to the MLS like Matuidi did.

Understand your frustration. We have many high wage earners who are not good enough so just collect the wages. We have to understand that it's not the player's fault it's the club and whoever negotiated such an odious contract with such high wages.

The season is right around the corner and we haven’t sold any of our dead weight yet...

The wages of Ramsey, Higuain, Khedira and others are far too high for clubs to be interested.
I mean, Ramsey has 400k a week..

Last season we sell Spinazzola, the best LB Italy has. He was injury plagued so we accepted it. Now we are apparently going to sell Luca Pellegrini...whyyyyy???!?


Anyway, first game of season today. Forza Juve

Great first game with pirlo in charge. Mckennie won himself lots of praise. Kulusevski debut goal. Ramsey looking great. Gotta love it

No Suarez, no Dzeko. Instead, Morata returns

Juve win by forfeit, Napoli to appeal. Strange stuff
