Bouy, maybe. Sorensen nope; he will never be good enough.

Immobile is so fucking over-rated. I can't wait to hear more people moping/whinging/complaining when Immobile scores his first few goals for Dortmund. This will all be happening while we are dominating Serie A, and hopefully making an impact in Europe.

We lost out on Immobile people. Immobile ffs! Not Baggio, not Zidane, and not Nedved.

It seems that Conte doesn't want him, and those of you crying like babies just have to deal with it.
:agree:
Why wouldn't Conte want him? It's that imbecile who is unable to keep him because he simply can't loan out players without selling their half.
Because we still have 3 other strikers, 3 that won't bring us much cash probably, maybe even nothing if they don't want to go.
And, as others also said, I think I have read several times in interviews that he doesn't want to play for us either.
Also, sure if we we were getting a lot of money for him to invest somewhere else but we're getting 9m which in todays football gets you nothing. I'd rather keep him around to find out if he's the next great Italian striker or not.
We just made 9.5m euro because of co owns.
And the money we got for the co-ownership itself, how much was that?

Great deal, we can now splash them on well needed players.

That logic. We have to pay for our own players to come back :lol2:
It as either we co-own or sell him outright. He would have been 5th choice or even below if we brought him back after Genoa. We'd have made 5.5 million if we sold him outright to Torino last season, instead we make a total of 12 million off him.

That's exactly why co-owns are retarded.
That doesn't really make sense. Instead of selling a player, or loaning a player into oblivion you sell half the player and the onus of the buying team is to improve the player, but this has been gone over enough times now.

We use them to generate money (which we use to buy players for our first team) and give us stakes in other players (often in exchange). If it costs us more to bring a player back than we sold them for then that is because the player is doing well, we make more money from these deals than we lose.

I am happy that the league forbid them.

What I am really looking forward from the FIGC is to limit the number of players that can be loaned out to maximum 5 players.

What I would really love to see is a developmental league. A farm league system, so to speak.

I would think that abolishing the co-ownership system would necessitate a reserve league of some kind. I don't think we would send so many players out on loan or co-own if they could still play games every week after graduating from the primavera. In any case UEFA trying to normalise things across Europe probably includes a reserve league for top leagues.

Juve's Marotta "For the next season, our goal will be to improve at European level & play a good Champions League. Conte is the ideal leader for Juventus and the results of the last three years have had great merits "
