Kapo and Chiellini are a very bad bargain if we lose them, and as Hun-hide said, Capello does not trust youngsters adn does not work good on them either
If these are what Capelo wants then it is no good.....
To say that Capello doesnt trust young players and doesnt like to work with them, is plain nuts.
Cassano, De Rossi, D'Agostino, Mancini...
were you following the serie-a recently??
Chiellini is not matured enough to play in Juve right now, he was also a substitute in the Olimpics.
None of us knows the details of the agreement, so it is impossible to decide wheather it is good for us, or not. May the price of buying him back is limited, or if not, just do some maths, and you will see this move is may not that stupid, as it's seems to be.
bought for 6 million total: -6
half sold for 3 million +3 (total: -6+3= -3)
if he performs well, his price can go up to 10-12 million (very maximum)
buying back 6 million (maximum). total: -3- -6= -9
so at the end we got a 12 million worth of player for 9 million, and gaining about another million not to pay his sallary this season, so he coasts us 8 million at the end. total -9+1=8
So the only risk we take is losing some 2 million euros next year, comparing the original 6 million price, to calculated price of 8.
And he can play much more than he could in Juve, in quite a good team.
And we get some money for this seasons transfers.
I think we also have to consider, that lots of our players are quite underrated after the bad season, but hopefuly that can change in the upcoming championship. That would mean we can get more money for decent players like Pesotto or Birindelli whose worth no money nowadays.
So for me it is a typical Moggi move, seems to be no sense, but when it comes to counting, he is usually on the gaining side.
