Correct. Only to overseas clubs. I had forgotten that.

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

If that's the case we should catapult Lemina to Wolfsburg and sign Kante immediately. Would be such a troll move to cut all the EPL clubs

 

[TheTruth]

Regarding the links to Kante and what I've noticed watching the France games these Euros. Yes he covers a lot of ground, but he seems extremely limited on the ball. He can't play himself out of tight spaces and seems to have poor technique. He's a smart player but doesn't physically impose his will on the game. When they're playing against an established defense (as Juve often do), they're basically a man down as he offers nothing moving forward. I understand he worked well in a Leicester team being the BPL winner with the least amount of ball possession in history and played on the counter every game. Being creative and making plays are not his tasks but I don't quite see what Juventus would benefit from that kind of a midfielder. I see much more need for a Lemina type who is more dynamic and physical as well. In my eyes Kante's just a poor man's Mascherano.

I know Pogba looks like a completely different player for France, but he plays a vastly different position for them.

To be fair Kante plays a different role for France too. At Leicester he played as a box to box CM rather than a sitting DM. The way Deschamps has decided to play pretty much limits all their players apart from Matuidi.

 

[rakib567]

No to giving Lemina away

we have not "giving" him away. we are selling him.

we should sell him with buy-back option just like madrid.

He can play both roles.

Given that we are going to play a 4312 we will need 4 mids rather than usual 3.

Hernanes had 1440 min
Lemina had 900 min

We can replace those 2300 min with kante playing (plus marchisio is injured)

...

They bought also Caprari isn't it?

 

[Xperd]

Yeah.

This probably means they've given up on Berardi/Jesus ?

[Orgut]

As I said - I dont rate Lemina much so him for Kante would be a brilliant move as Kante could be a real defensive reinforcement+He is a dynamo in midfield so would add that as well! I`m only worried about his passing ability which is lacking IMO

Is Benatia official?

 

[Xperd]

Buffon, Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini,
Sturaro and Pogba will not
participate in Juve's tour to
Australia, according to Gazzetta.

 

[zizinho]

It would be stupid to sell Lemina to fund Kante, thats what I meant. The Gabonese is the better player potentially so unless he wants out we have no reason to sell
