“We moved before other clubs for our main objectives,” Marotta said.
“The transfer market [for us] closes here today. The squad is competitive, there are two players for every position, so we think it’s competitive.
“The Vidal talk is just rumours, we have a good relationship with Real [Madrid, linked with the player], but these rumours are utopian.
“As for Pogba, I’ve already spent so much time talking about this - Juventus will not sell the best players in our squad.”
Marotta also joined club President Andrea Agnelli in bidding farewell to Andrea Pirlo, but insists the midfield is not weakened by his move to New York City.
“Today is a day of nostalgia for Pirlo, who played pure football, recognised by everyone, we must recognise that, he’s not easy to replace.
“The starting midfield has quality, and is athletic, with Pirlo’s exit, [Sami] Khedira comes in, with his grit and experience, and with [Stefano] Sturaro’s consolidation then we’re on the same level.”
