Only one of these though.
Look... not even one of those. Let's remember it's Pereyra, on a loan. We should NOT give away one of them, except if it's on a loan with a high fee to buy.

Donis didn't have the best season for Primavera, but he is clearly one of the top prospects - winger or ss fast with flair and dribbling. He's one of the very few of our current Primavera who could actually become something relevant. He should be in preseason with professionals IMO, given the big need at his position.

Vitale is a gem at U17. Juve's U17 is between the 3 best in Italy, if not the best. He's also at Italy U17 and one of the 3 best players of our allievi (along with Pellini and Clemenza). He's a gem, he should definitely not leave.

Romagna is well known as the top defensive prospect in all of Juve's youth setup. At the age of 17 he's already made the bench of the professional squad in Serie A. This is an enourmous feat given the Juventus history of (not) using youngsters. He should be out of any deal.

If it was to be a co-own I'd be ok with it. But come on... to give them out on a full basis, for a loan of a guy who is clearly overrated at the moment (6M would be a more fair price for Pereyra) is just bad business IMO.

Sorensen is OK. But if one of the 3 is definitely gone to Udinese, I'll be disapointed. We don't have many great prospects at the youth setup (despite the big amount of money spent on it) and they are 3 of them.

I mean, if it's a paid loan, give Sorensen, who is already valued at 2/3M and maybe + 1M cash. If Pereyra's price is set at 12M, it equals 16M for the guy. It's already too much.

Giving Donis to them on a definite transfer is a mistake IMO. I've seen a couple of primavera games and he's clearly talented. He'd thrive on the right team and on the right environment. He should be in preseason now.

Agreeing to value Pereyra at 16M is just stupid... just go abroad, to France/Germany/Holland/Argentina and get someone young and with similar characteristics for at least half the price. When will we learn...

You are greatly underrating Pereyra here. In today's market, bench players of his characteristics can easily fetch you 15m and he is coming from a rather good season. You make it sound like he is Padoin type of player. Youngsters, like we have seen on numerous ocasions, from Chiumento, Palladino, Giovinco, etc... can go either way. It is far from certain that they would turn out into the players you expected them to become.

It's the same story every year. This year we went from Di Maria to Iturbe to this guy. Last year it was Higuain and Jovetic. Essentially the rule of thumb is take each initial transfer rumor and subtract two for quality, then you can find your potential transfer list. For the CB's it means Nastasic - Savic = Astori.
Decent logic. Every year some of us fall for the same trap. It's the hope that kills you.
