Its clear he doesnt really want to go PSG, or is in a hurry to make such a final decision of going to overseas "top club" yet atleast.
Nor should he rush.

If I was him I'd enjoy playing a season in Serie A for my hometown club and back myself to do well enough that offers will be there whenever I decide to leave down the line.

Yep, unusual for youth players usually, they usually jump on the first opportunity they get. Even if we had bought him fully, he was insisting on being loaned to Pescara for a season. Needs atleast one season where he is the focal point of a teams midfield, especially with the type of player he is.

If Juventus manage to get Gabbiadini (basically done), Verratti, Destro, Jovetic and Pazzini (if Matri goes) I'd say this our best mercato ever. :)

Like i said some days ago....if i were him, i would not accept that psg deal. Even when psg is a great team for youngster... time is on his side and he has much to lear still.

I would stay in seire A

Joe: Our best mercato ever includes Gabbiadini and Pazzini? And Destro is is decent to sign at best, yeah I only like Jovetic and Verratti as exceptional talents to sign there, even if latter wouldnt be with our club this coming summer to be deemed a factor in determining how "best ever" a mercato is.

Leali, Lucio, Masi, Asamoah, Isla, Verratti, Pogba, Destro, Gabbadini, Pazzini, Giovinco, Jovetic

We upgraded every part of our team, added great depth, and invested in great youth products.

I was exaggerating when I said best ever, but definitely up there IMO.

Depth, yes. But upgraded our XI? Only JoJo from that list will do that.

Juventus had the best defensive record in Europe last season. We have a solid back line, our midfield is among the top in Europe, just our attack is really lacking. Jojo is definitely an upgrade, and the only upgrade we need.

in 1-3-5-2 Isla is an upgrade. Assamoa is another one, cause on of Vidal/Marchisio will need rest, that we couldnt give them last season, because of the lack in depth department, quality depth in midfield.
I dont know about Isla yet. I need to watch him play for us (big club), especially after his serious injury.
