Alessandro Del Piero has admitted that losing David Trezeguet and Mauro Camoranesi would be a massive blow on Juve's Serie A return.
The Bianconeri have been in contract talks with both internationals, but it does seem as if they will be leaving the Turin giants.
The Frenchman has made it clear that he wants out before his contract expires in June 2008, while Camoranesi wants a bigger salary before he puts pen to paper on an agreement until 2009.
“If Trezeguet and Camoranesi were to leave then we would be in big trouble,” said Del Piero in an interview to Sportweek.
However, it does seem that the Bianconeri will have a new look to them next season with or without the duo – even if the captain has urged the club to spend wisely.
“I have my own idea on how I would plan the next transfer campaign,” continued the former Padova youngster.
“If it is true that we have a £35m budget, then I would target two or three players who would allow us to improve our quality, rather than spend the entire amount on one big name.
“Gianluigi Buffon? His contract extension was a delicate issue and his decision to stay filled us with enthusiasm.”
Club chiefs have spoken about a five-year plan to get the outfit back to where they were before Calciopoli, but Pinturicchio is eager for success. “We can’t afford to take that long,” he noted.
The No 10 stayed loyal to Madama following their demotion and he insists that Serie B football served him well.
“I feel stronger and I think people now like Juventus more when compared to the past,” continued the Italian World Cup winner.
“I first understood that we were in Serie B when we arrived at Cesena for the Coppa Italia. There were no supporters in front of our hotel waiting for us and it was clear that something had changed.”
