I'll post it here:

Juventus are reportedly “hours away” from signing Valencia right-back Joao Cancelo for a fee of around €25m.

According to Superdeporte, an agreement has been reached for Cancelo to join Juve, which will help fund Valencia’s double swoop for Inter pair Jeison Murillo and Geoffrey Kondogbia.

The Portugese had been linked with the Bianconeri throughout the summer and would replace former Barcelona man Dani Alves, who has since joined Paris Saint-Germain.

Hmm no idea how good he is but I guess anything is an improvement over Licht... Or MdS for that matter. :numnum:
Since Licht doesn't defend anymore, it seems to be an even trade except this guy can do well going forward...seems like a curadrado replacement to me actually.

I watched Valencia against Werder friendly yesterday.Was in the starting 11.Wasn't impressed at all.Played almost the whole game .Doesn't care about defense and not good at attack.De Sciglio at the best type of player.We won't solve our RB issues with him at all.

What if someone has seen Pjanic, Dybala or Higuain for the first time yesterday? What do you think is their opinion? Probably Pazzini or Charisteas at it's best type of player or something like that.

Agree about yesterday's performance.It's my impression about Cancelo from this game ,friendly against Werder. Bad impression.

Just buy him.

We arent getting anyone better, its either him or let cuadrado have a try.

De sciglio is okay, and I can live with playing. But Lichsteiner is finished. Hes miles away from being What he used to be. He allways sucked offensively, but now he cant even defend. Love him, but he is not good enough.

Honestly guys, I would rather bring in Lirola and Spinazzola while trying to reinvent Cuadrado as a right back. Cancelo seems like a waste of money and there are not many good alternatives out there.

So basically:
IN: Lirola, Spinazzola
OUT: Lichsteiner - keep Asamoah as the 6th choice CM / left back

Cancelo is definitely not a waste of money. Id argue he is better than Cuadrado already.

I assume you have seen a lot of him then? I cannot say that I have. I am only going on youtube videos and the odd comment here and there. I hope you are right about him if we do end up spending 25m on this fella.
