Juventus director Maurizio Arrivabene comments on Alvaro Morata progress and insists they didn’t ‘steal’ Gleison Bremer from under Inter’s noses. ‘A club does what it has to do.’
The Bianconeri officially signed Bremer from their city rivals Torino this week in a deal worth €41m plus up to €9m in various bonuses.
He had seemed destined to join Inter, but the Old Lady got there first, securing both the player and bragging rights on the market at stealing him from under their noses.
“It’s not a matter of stealing, the transfer market is open and a club does what it has to do,” Arrivabene told reporters when leaving today’s Lega Serie A meeting in Milan.
He was also asked about the reports that Juventus are trying again to negotiate a deal with Atletico Madrid for Morata, who just completed a two-season loan in Turin.
“No, there’s no news.”
