Unless the player himself is demanding to leave I really doubt the club would ever sell him.

Caldara at the time of his leaving was seen probably even as highly as Demiral is now. Dont you remember our crying here? He was seen as next WC italian CB. The comparisiom is good and the worries are right because we know Para has done things like this in the past. Also the media were first reporting that we refuse any offer for Mattia, but we did sell him afterall.
if Demiral is starter material so was Caldara. Caldara was more proven in serie A at the time he came over to Juve. I’m just saying there’s a shit ton of hype around Demiral based off a relatively small sample. I don’t wanna sell the guy, I think he’s talented, and Bonucci/Chiellini are nearing the end, but if Tici decided to cash in, I probably wouldn’t freak out either.
We not gonna sell at all. Him and De Ligt only long term CBs.
And he defenitely shown more top level defensive talent then Caldara did. Who we were hopeful for because of his age, but watched him enough in Atalanta at the time and it was mainly just a decent defender who stood out by going up in attack and scoring few goals, an extra frontman type CB.
This is not hindsight talking, but most of what I saw of him was a potential backup/rotation option for Juve while Demirals actual defending looks like a starter level and future long term option. He needs to be little less reckless, but his overall ability is of a defensive wall, top level instincts and tackling.

Agree with everything completely Osman. Have seen so little of Caldera but little of Demiral has shown me a real tough killer instinct in defending. Not backing down from anybody. Yes, screw those few exciting goals and give me the hard nosed defender. By season's end 23 years old >>> 27. There's a reason clubs will pay for this guy.
