Earth to Albo, extreme minority of footballers are Juve fans, especially foreign players in other continents. They ALL look for the best opportunity for them, meaning best place to have a good chance to win titles and get paid well. If you dont like this kind of player, that means you barely like any player, including majority of our squad, present, past and future ones.
Why does everyone assume the news of chelsea 'favourites to sign piazon' is a done deal??? when the same has been said about juve as favourites to sign him, the little fucker even came to visit, a respected (?) fifa agent spoke of his move to Juve as held up by nothing more than red tape...so, why the certainty he is off to chelsea???? that one report mentioned above somewhere, must be from somewhere very reputable, i guess????
Sao Paolo's OFFICIAL site. And its not enough for you, here:
Chelsea strike deal to sign Brazilian teenager Lucas Piazon
Chelsea have reached a pre-contract agreement to sign the highly rated attacking midfielder Lucas Piazon from São Paulo when he turns 18 for a fee that could reportedly amount to some £10m.
The teenager, who is currently playing for Brazil in the South American Under-17 championships in Ecuador, has opted to move to the Premier League champions rather than Juventus, who had offered a similar-sized fee but could not match the wage on offer from Chelsea.
Lucas will undergo medical tests at the club's Cobham training centre after the tournament this month before returning to Brazil, but will officially become a Chelsea player on his 18th birthday next January.
Piazon would swell the Brazilian contingent at Chelsea, which is currently made up of the defenders Alex and David Luiz.

as i asked, was the report from a reputable source...then if so, its obviously enough for me...i just thought we had a fifa offical claiming the exact same thing quite recently, that we had a pre agreement with the player...i wasn't aware it was sao paolo's official site.
nevermind, i guess we had to use a non-eu spot to get him and we have plans to buy someone already established and classy, to use that non eu spot. not an unproven kid, who looks like he could become a world beater...
