I read something about Chelsea and PSG links but we need to make a serious attempt. Genuin top player in the making. Would hate it to miss another potentially great CM like Allan last summer.

Yeah I read the same except Bayern and Chelsea. But no deal made so hardly too late.

Might sound strange, but we still have the upper hand when dealing with smaller serie A teams, even if our rivals are PSG, Chelsea, City and the likes. If we're really interested in some 18 year old from Bologna, we'll get him.
We might not fight 30+ million euro offers for established players like Alexis Sanchez or Pastore, but we'll always have the advantage when the prey is some kid who won't cost more than 15m euro. We have the connections and the ability to offer interesting players in exchange. An offer from Chelsea comes only once, but teams like Bologna could get money and players from Juve year after year.
Udinese knows this, Sassuolo knows this. Bologna would be happy to join.

That is true, that's why I was suprised by Zizinho's post. And yeah this kid shouldn't be more then the 15m mark yet. Looks impressive, so better to lock him down before he becomes an established hyped name in the game.

Diawara should be very high on our summer shopping list would fit very well here with his good defensive ability and composure on the ball for his age seems to be quite good as well. My only doubt is that we have heavily invested on an other young player just recently who plays the same position.

Came here to mention Diawara, I see people already talking about him. That's how you know a player is impressive.
And only 18, wow.

Sensi, Diawara and mandrogara are just potential Top Players so if we are gonna bet on them lets get rid of Hernanes, Sturaro, Lemina and Padoin and maybe even let go Asamoah cuz if we r gonna bring three youngsters we need also to buy a current Top CM. There's not make any sense to have 7 subs material players in our MF

With Marotta finally able to end the 10 year old quest of finding some proper Lb options, mow all that is left is to find the Trezequet heir, a prolific finisher, able to score with consistency about 20 league goals per season.
I am not sure if we will keep hunting an Am, if we keep Pogba.

this year we will sell an important player like Pogba, Dybala or Morata, I hope that we will make more money than we did with Pirlo, Vidal and Tevez, selling at decent prices remains our greatest flaw.

Thankfully, this transfer window we were wise enough not to spend much and save it for Smth better come the summer window. Now hopefully, we will stop buying quantity and focus on quality!

Contrary to popular belief, we have a pretty good chance of signing Cavani.

It seems Cavani is likely to leave irrespective of whether Ibra stays or not.

Our competition are United and Chelsea, neither of whom are likely to take part in the CL next season. And Cavani has played in Italy and likes Italy.

Our salary cap is 5m, and we offered both Tevez and Llorente 2m in possible bonuses (1m for winning the scudetto, 1m for winning the CL). If we could afford to pay Tevez 4.5+2m, there's no reason why we can't offer Cavani 5+2m. That's basically 2m less than what he's earning now (8m), and he'll be earning that amount in his 30s as well. I don't see how that's a bad deal for him.

I don't really see Morata wanting to go to Real. Mandzukic's sale would generate about half of what Cavani would cost. They're about the same age (Mario is a year older). So, if you're worried about resale value, half of what we'd spend on Cavani will depreciate to 0 anyway. At this point, we can afford to spend the remaining ~18-20m and see it depreciate to 0.

IMO our priority this summer should be:
CAM
RB
DM
SS
A WC CF should be the 1st priority.

A midfielder who can play as both CM and AM should be next.

No need for a RB if we extend Caceres and sign Cuadrado.

Definitely need more guarantees for vice-Marchisio.

Gundogan is someone who can play as B2B, AM as well as regista. But he'll much tougher to sign than Cavani. City should be the favorite unless he has a personal preference for Juve.

I don't think we need to touch our attackers other than possibly signing Berardi. Midfield needs to be strengthened once again with needing cover for both AM and DM and maybe even CM if we don't decide to sign Lemina. Defense is other part that needs rejuvenating with a new CB and RB and if Evra doesn't resign we need cover at LB also.

Why would Cavani join juventus on a fair wage, when he can go to United and Chelsea who can offer 2-3 times as much without breaking a sweat and play in the greatest unforced defensive error league in the world ?

I think the EPL is a horseshit league, but i cant see why cavani would chose to come here.

I already told you why. Wages aren't everything, and we can offer him close to what he earns currently. Chelsea won't partake in the CL, United likely won't either. If he's concerned about salary only, which he isn't, he'll go to China, not Chelsea.
