Edinson Cavani - ST - PSG (54 Viewers)

All I know is that if we do get a top striker, he will come from either Serie-A or another lower status league. If we do try for Cavani, we obviously won't be spending 70-80 million, but we will have to overpay. I see us going in hard for him, considering that Marotta's reputation within Italy is very good. He'll be likely to have a real go for this player. Another option for us would be Lewandowski, but he seems close to Manchester United now and could therefore be out of our reach.
I'd like to see that happen too, but from the look of it, the top strikers from the "top" leagues don't even take us seriously anymore. Wenger is even talking about caramellos for christ's sake. Never seen him so confident that one of his players won't be leaving for a particular club, ever. I think we need a great CL campaign next year to prove to these spoilt brats that we're a force to be reckoned with.
I do agree with this..The Only player who has the probability of joining us from EPL/La liga is Dzeko as he's always been open to a move to Serie A..But i highly doubt that he would take a wage cut.
I highly doubt players like Van Persie ,Torres and even Higuain would want to come here..Like i said unless we offer insane amounts of cash for both club and player ,i just dont see us signing these aformentioned players.
Actually two years ago Eto'o was kinda reluctant to move to Inter when they initially offered him 8m salary but they rose that offer to 10.5m and only then was Eto'o willing to join..So yeah money talks !

I figure we might end up overpaying a bit to put ourselves back on the European powerhouse map. When players see this kind of spending power to get a top player they take notice and that is in itself a little bit of groundwork to attract other stars, like a domino effect. All this being said, I still hope we get Higuain or RvP ahead of Cavani. The dream will always be Benz and Falcao. And by overpaying I mean, 30m, becoming 35m, not 40m plus Matri plus Giovinco. We are Juventus, not Malaga (with due respect) FFS.
, just letting you know
I still say Cavani should be our number one target. And paying 37m euros would not be a bad deal at all -- although I think ADL would want no less than 40m. Cavani has what it takes to be a true Champion. He's had back-to-back great years. His fitness levels are fantastic. I've watched him also since Palermo -- he's barely ever injured. He's won with Uruguay and has international experience. He was very impressive in Napoli's Champs run; and so, has experience in the UCL. He has no problems going back and defending, something which Conte asks of his strikers. He knows the language, league, and is familiar with our formations. It'd fit in seamlessly.
Can you imagine Pirlo feeding Cavani balls in the box? Can you imagine Vuci working with Cavani up front? Working with Vidal? Licht feeding him crosses? Can you imagine the havok that would bring on defenses around Europe? And Cavani is stil so YOUNG and he's just getting started. A 40m euro investment in him in this market, for a young player of this type would be one of the best deals Juve have made in a at least a decade.
