I don't see Padoin's agent stressing multiple times that he's staying either.
Let's be real, we all know that Gio is hated here. Everyone would LOVE to see him leave. But that's not going to happen. It doesn't make sense in any way whatsoever. Juve want him to stay and there are no other clubs chasing his signature. He is a tricky player and could be useful to have him as one of our strikers. Whether he comes off the bench or starts, he can be useful for us. There is no reason to sell him other than to please the haters. And I doubt Juve would do that.

I don't think we'll really need to
see who comes out on top. Use your common sense!
