And apparently Genoa and Sampdoria interested in him. The latter may throw Obiang, Zaza and one other guy into the deal, if the rumor is to be believed. Forget if it's Poli or another youth we are after. Anyway, just sharing. It's on TJ.

Should go elsewhere to play regular football as he did at Parma. Swapping him for Poli wouldnt be wuch a bad idea...we may need more back up in midfield if the Marchisio deals ever eventuates.

He is only suited for 4-3-3......And that is that. He can not play anything different than the LW or RW positions. You could just see it. Every single time when he would slide to the wings in the games he played, he was an immediate danger. It is his position. It is where his qualities come to light and his flaws do not matter.

I'm afraid i have to disagree with this opinion.

Giovinco on the wing, was more of the same stuff. Basically he tries to take on defenders, and NEVER gets past them, allways looses the ball. The only good thing he did from the flank, was that one game where he was switched to the right, where he cut back, and send early crosses with his left foot.
HOWEVER, if we were to pounce on this and make him set his game to this, soon defenders would figure it out, forcing him to take them on instead, losing the ball.

Giovinco was best when lots of space was to be found, and springing on lose balls. He however has shown an ridiculous lack of composure and mostly ballooned these chances out of the stadium. At his age, he could improve here, but nothing groundbreaking.

I'm all for using him as a supstitute for counterattacking play.

But one has to wonder, if we aquire Higuain who has a great burst acceleration and good top speed, and possibly Jovetic on a trolldeal, if Giovinco still has this use in the team ?

With Llorente-Higuain starting, we'd have Jovetic who is better at allmost anything compared to giovinco to possibly come on and do the exact same thing as giovinco, but has the added value he can also start regular games aswel. And then there is the Vucinic relation.


If we can get Higuain and Jovetic, there is no room in this juventus for Giovinco.

But we will not sign those two in this summer mercato alone. And regardless the new faces, it's stated that giovinco will stay.

Giovinco's agent Pasqualin "Let me clarify this once and for all: Juventus & Conte have fully confirmed that Seba will stay at Juventus."

Guess they'll be giving him another shot.
