Its a good signing. My only concern is, now we have Caceres, Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini, Ognonna and Peluso - thats 6 players capable of playing as center back in a 3 man back line. I wonder how much playing time Caceres, Peluso and Ogbonna are going to get. The combined purchase value of those 3 center back "subs" is over EU26m. Pricey for subs who won't get much playing time.
Maybe Conte feels he needs to rotate the defenders more. I guess Ogbonna is more of a Bonucci and Chiellini sub while Caceres more of a Barzagli sub in the back 3.
In a back 4!? well if talk about us loaning Kolarov is correct Bonucci, Caceres and Ogbonna will spend loads of time on the bench.
I am assuming De Ceglie is sold of course.

Im assuming if the right offer comes I think Caceres will be sold and also Marrone wont probably be at Juve next season, he will probably be loaned out. So that leaves Conte with Bonucci, Barzagli, Chiellini, Ogbonna, Peluso as cbs. Ogbonna is a good purchase because we saw this season how Juve suffered without Chiellini and even though Ogbonna is no where near as good as him, he is a natural left footed defender. Also Peluso will probably be played as a lb or a lwb since we saw how shaky he looked in the back 3. I think there will be alot more rotation this year given the more defenders now and also Barzagli is getting older and Caceres will probably get a decent amount of time
