If Liverpool offer 60m, they're not gonna accept 30m from us. I don't know how far we can go in a bidding war. This doesn't only depend on Califiori. He's contracted to Bologna. They decide what offers they accept or reject.
Then there are the wages... If Liverpool or Chelsea offer twice as much in wages... He's not coming.

Seems like it’s getting increasingly difficult to get this deal done, there’s clearly a lot of competition from abroad for him and a bidding war is looking inevitable… only hope remains Calafiori’s will to stay in Italy and perhaps interest in continuing to work with Thiago Motta, but that can only help so much, to stand a chance we will be required to also put in a bid closer to the €50M mark to be able to find an agreement with Bologna.
Nothing is certain atm but i think we are still front runners for his signature, if he is as much of a priority for us as the rumors suggest then Giuntoli is probably working on it as we speak to find alternative formulas to make it feasible.

I'm still optimistic but atst I'd like to know what's plan b.
Keeping Huijsen? Kiwior? Buongiorno? Djalo to the rescue? In Rugani we trust? Gatti suddenly knows defending? De Ligt pls come back?

At the end of the day, if we want him, we're going to have to pay legitimate money for him. That's it.
Giuntoli deserves the benefit of the doubt. If he thinks Calafiori is worth investing in, and we can sustain that kind of financial investment, great. If he doesnt, there is probably a good reason and we should accept that.
After years of spending big money on players and looking for cheap alternatives to fill out the rest of the squad, I hope we learned to not go crazy over the flashy/expensive names if it comes at the expense of actually building a team.

yeah but this deal should have been done before euro started.

this is 100 percent true, but also in a way it's short sighted imo. because bologna too focused in the basel 40% clause
it's better for bologna to maintain good relationship with juve, because then it can get steady supply of cheap next gen talent over the next decade to develop and sell instead of a one and done deal with a foreign club. juventus has already shown it's willing to build good business rapport with other clubs for transfers such as bayern for example.
