Juve offered PSV 3.5m € for this Portuguese(yes another one) Center Back. Fiorentina and Atletico-Madrid are also interested. PSV would prefer having close to 8m € for him.



Other sources at J1897 say we want him. He was very good at the U-21 EURO championships.

Not another. 3.5 is cheap though so good price.

 

[Cronios]

Nice to see that we are actively interested on CBs, but we dont need another back up solution, we need someone who would start ahead of Criscito and Boumsong, someone of superior quality...

 

[Arvin]

it is just bu*******....we are going after heinze or meira...

 

[Dostoevsky]

Boumsong maybe leaves who knows.We also want new goalkeeper,Fernando Muslera.

 

[francesco]

im pretty sure Boumsong is staying, with Legro on the way out.
Havent heard of this guy, but at 3.5m why not?

If i was to choose another Portuguese centre back,it would either be Meira or R.Carvalho,although the latter might be just a little bit too hard to get...

 

[Dominic]

This guy is NOT going to improve our defence. Alex made Da Costa look good, when the former was injured the latter was hopeless.

mimmo f*cking criscito god damn it!

mimmo f*cking criscito god damn it!

i have mixed feelings about Criscito. If we dont sign another CB then its his time to shine, but what if he doesnt impress, what if he is a flop, then we are in trouble

but he will impress and wont be a flop and we wont be in trouble

that's why I say we blood him in eventually...if we start him now and doesn't do well you know that Juve is unforgiving with poor performers...so assure Cris that he is here for the long haul and give him opportunities over the duration of the season

 

[Quickfeet]

I doubt Juventus is really interested in Manuel da Costa .. Probably just a rumour to keep the fans reading..

 

[Kosta]

& we are reading it. Mission accomplished.

Da Costa has some real rough spots. Not a starter for this year, IMO, but more an investment for the future.

I think Da Costa has the potential to be a top notch defender. But he needs time and patience, which we don't have for our defensive needs this season.

so in another words we have no need for potentially good defenders because we already have one - criscito

Let me give you a potential scenario:

-We will sell Chiellini to Man City for a decent amount
-We will buy Heinze
-and a youngster with the rest of the money, someone like Da Costa
-We might keep Da Costa as a back up and loan Criscito to Genoa

That would be a very stupid course of action IMO, but our managers are capable of similar acts...

You're obsessed badass .
I'd rather go elsewhere on this but it is a cheap price so a backup plan for getting him.

I'm not sure if Man U will agree to sell us Heinze if we sell Chiellini to Man City.

I know Man City can't compete for the league but Fergie stilll won't be keen to see them strengthened.
