Tuttosport newspaper published a ‘Juventus sale XI’ including the Old Lady’s asking price for Federico Chiesa, Weston McKennie and Wojciech Szczesny, among others.
Juventus have announced Douglas Luiz, Michele Di Gregorio, and Khephren Thuram, but they must focus on sales before giving more reinforcement to the new coach, Thiago Motta.
Thursday’s printed edition of Tuttosport newspaper, on page 5, published a ‘Juventus Sale XI’ featuring 11 players on the market and their price tags.
It’s a 4-3-3 formation with Szczesny in goal, Mattia De Sciglio, Daniele Rugani, Dean Huijsen and Filip Kostic in defence, McKennie, Arthur and Hans Nicolussi Caviglia in central midfield, Soulé, Arek Milik and Chiesa in attack.
Now, there are some differences between the status of these players. For example, Thiago Motta is a fan of Huijsen and Soulé, but Juventus will be willing to sell the pair for a high price to boost their transfer budget and balance the books.
Chiesa is considering his future at the club, but Juventus have put him on the market as the winger is reluctant to sign a contract extension beyond 2025.
Szczesny was in talks with Al-Nassr, but according to the latest Sky Sport report, the ex-Arsenal man wants to remain in Serie A.
According to Gazzetta, Motta has personally informed Arthur, Rugani, De Sciglio, McKennie, Milik and Kostic that they are not part of his project.
Motta creating his own team. Making space and clearing out. Great decisions. The coach is the boss and the new team must be in his positive image and rid the negativity of the Allegri era.
Time will tell!
