Damn :(

The best was not to sell him, if it's done something forced Marotta's hand. But anyway, Vidal's current value is around 45M I'd say. 28 yr old, knee problems, behaviour problems, only 2 years left on the contract. Probably the incident in Chile frightened buyers like Real, that's why there was...

Fully agreed. If Vidal requested to leave, we should be putting in an auction and sell him only for 45M +. If we sell him for 40M we'll still be underselling, but not heavily though.

Marotta is finally listening to me.

Sign Cuadrado and Alex Sandro, use them as offensive WBs in a 352, only needing 3 men midfield, no trequartista, no winger Cuadrado-------Pogba---------Marchisio--------Khedira (Pereyra/Asa)---------Alex Sandro...

Probably they won't shed much information. It will be Conte style I guess. We won't really know what made them sell him, unless he directly requested this beforehand, which I doubt.

My take on this is that something happened and Marotta took care of it, not letting media know, not to decrease Vidal's price even more. Maybe they know his knee is more fucked up than we know; Maybe he's been shitting all around Turin's nightlife more than we know, and hasn't been...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA one of the funniest posts I've seen here hahahahah - - - Updated - - - 50k would be ideal at this point. But I think there can't be an expansion, not feasible.

Those 2 guys would make a killer for 352. No trequartista needed anymore, problem solved Buffon Barzagli Bonucci Chiellini Cuadrado Marchisio Pogba Khedira Alex Sandro Morata Mandzukic Bench: Neto, Rugani, Caceres, Litch, Evra, Padoin, Asa, Sturaro, Pereyra, Dybala, Coman, Zaza

last paragraph was sarcasm.

tuttosport is the unofficial Juve fan paper. They make a lot of shit up, but it's noticeable that they like to make shit up when it comes to signing new players. Rumours of signings. Good shit in general. When it comes to bad news they aren't prone to inventing stuff. Chilean newspapers...

Di Marzio didn't quote tuttosport btw, only mentioned them. - - - Updated - - - Also gazzetta and corriere are reporting it as well

They'll ask at least 20M for him. No fucking way Marotta pays 20M for a LB. But he does for Zaza, a backup striker. :(

Deciding to sell Vidal is clearly the wrong decision. But if it is made, you can look for reasons why - he asked to? His knee is fucked up? His problems extra-field are too much? He is refusing to renew his contract (which ends at 2017) for a reasonable sum? What bugs me is that if you decide...

You are probably right.

Vidal just turned 28. He has at least 4 more peak years. Renew his contract, give him a little raise and move forward. Clearly the best thing to do.

Probably he didn't quite requested. They probably approached his manager, offered huge salaries, Vidal gave his OK, he accepted the offer, informed Juventus. I don't think he would express his wish to leave. Anyway, it looks like the wrong approach from Marotta. Let's wait

Choke written all over this guy

I agree. I don't care if he requested to leave. He can request, not demand. If the money isn't right for Juventus there's no deal, let his agent work for a better offer, start a bidding war, I don't care. This is not how a big club proceeds.

From vecchiasignora, probably bullshit, but still.. BL_Latest Transfers ‏@BL_LatestEN 6m6 minutes ago Juventus are interested in Schalke's Julian Draxler (21) to replace Arturo Vidal, according to kicker. #S04
