Juventus have reportedly given up on getting Nicolò Zaniolo from Roma and instead turned back towards Atletico Madrid striker Alvaro Morata.
The Bianconeri were expected to reinvest some of that De Ligt money into signing Zaniolo, who has a €50m asking price.
However, they seem to instead be pumping most of the funds into snatching Torino defender Gleison Bremer from the grasp of Inter.
Zaniolo is also by no means pushed out of Roma by the arrival of Paulo Dybala as a free agent.
Now Sky Sport Italia maintain coach Max Allegri has told Juventus he would much prefer to sign Morata rather than Zaniolo.
His versatility is key, as the Spain international can play either with Dusan Vlahovic or as a replacement centre-forward for the Serbian.
Morata just finished a two-season loan with Juventus and the club refused to pay the agreed €35m fee to make it a permanent move.
They had hoped to negotiate that down and this remains the plan, although it might be more difficult now that Morata has reportedly impressed Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone in pre-season training.
😂😂😂 Of course he would prefer Frittata. He is older and accustomed to being the new Mandzukic. Joke of a football club and little wonder why CL success has escaped them for decades. The same recipe book is recycled annually, hoping for a better risen cake. The issue is PhD Max is like ammonia. Once you add it, game over. Bremer should think very carefully before he becomes the new Brazilian Phil Jones. The Dutch one is a very relieved boy.
Ffs
Can’t agree more with Allegri. This guy is simply a new Trezeguet.😊
why don’t my comments ever get published???
Seems Football Italia doesn’t allow me to publish more than one line….
Anyway Lord Allegri, I agree 100% with everything you say. You are a true fan
Juve need hungry, Champions League players who want to prove themselves. Morata did his time and was a loyal servant. But time to change air. We need a midfielder with brains, a new left back and another centre back OF CHAMPIONS LEAGUE LEVEL.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 LORD ur a joker with that photo. I really admire ur dedication to hating on Mr Allegri. Keep up the good work. ur the reason I come to the Juventus section. @Muto this should not shock any of us. If you asked Allegri to choose between prime Maradona, Messi or Alex Sandro, guess who he would pick……………………………….
Complete joker if true , Rather get zaniola anyday of the unwanted spaniard
Too busy watching Allegri to notice Roma steal Dybala from under Don Beppe’s nose. Lol. Now watch Bremer do the same.
I now understand why Alegri’ isn’t loved by most Juve fans. He’s choices re jus too old fashioned and unbelievable
I mean Zaniolo is injury prone and we just got rid of another one in Dybala, but I doubt that’s the reason.
Morata does a lot of defensive work and of course that’s what Allegri loves.
After the depature of de ligt around 80million euros. Allegri should rather invest the money in zaniolo,pau torres and bremer as a chiellini replacement.
