From the YT videos, Alisson looks to have a good command of the area, seems to be a good leader, and is a serious type of guy - someone who fits the Juve model. From highlights, it's impossible to say how good a shot-stopper he is.
If he's starting for Brazil and cost 7m, he's probably too good to sit on the bench. I'm assuming we'll loan him out.
This is the right time to buy a young Buffon replacement on the cheap and let him develop further rather than wait a couple of years and play a lot more than 7m.
He's a EU citizen, and apparently, he played the last 3 qualifiers for Brazil. One of the them was the game with Argentina. That'd be a good game to check out if anyone is curious and wants to scout him.
What other paper besides the ever-reliable TuttoSport?
Before summer mercato window, Agnelli underlined Beppe's budget in a presser: 200m for salaries and transfers. If you deduct our total salaries and transfer fees that were paid in the summer, we've 24m left for transfers and any increase in total team salary. Probably a little less than that because a couple of players extended their contracts and got a bump in salary.
For us to have a 60m transfer kitty for Jan, Agnelli would've had to increase Marotta's budget by ~36m. That's a lot, and a quick look at our financial statements would probably confirm that we don't have that amount of dough to add to our existing budget. That kind of raise in the budget would probably have to come from Exor.
Likely, it's a false rumor.
