Vuci is a good player as we all know, but not WC. Yes as many have stated is the best of what we have & I get that, but this season dispite his injuries hasn't given us much to shout about apart from the day he took his shorts off. Which drew attention and made me thought "damn, didn't know he was still on"

I have seen quite a bit of the player, although less this season due to time constraints. Last year, I would have dropped 30M on him in a heartbeat - in a split second, done deal. I think most here would have. After this season, the hype has died down, City is changing managers (I saw them as the major competition for his sig), and we may even be able to get him for less than that. I can pretty much guarantee you that Marotta is sure as hell going to try!
But if you're asking me whether I would drop 30M on him right now, yes, I probably would, because I understand that players often have a difficult time when a move away from their club collapses; that environment is not favourable for him right now, he needs to feel the love from the fans, and I think he needs a club that can match his ambitions. I'm also basing my judgment on him over a larger body of work. It might seem like overpaying right now, but teams usually overpay a little for this type of quality, IMO. When the player is as young, and talented as Jovetic, with a good head on his shoulders, and widely respected on the continent, stumping up the extra 5M or whatever, it's a risk I would probably take, because I'm convinced by the player - he has a lot going for him.
This is a player who can grow with the club; he fits a huge need, he's spoken highly of Juve and is comfortable with the league/language, and he's a solid character, who has demonstrated the ability to rise to the occasion in big matches (CL). He would compliment our other attackers and has solid chemistry with the man who is currently our most important forward. He can play both forward positions in the 3-5-2, we can give him a salary bump and still stay within our parameters, and he is going to have considerable resale value - even if things don't work out at Juve.
So yeah, I don't really see 30M on Jovetic as being quite the catastrophic risk others around here seem to think it is, when I look at all of the factors. Especially when you add in all the variables and the some of the intangibles possessed by the player. It's a move I would make.

But now he has been at Fiorentina one season, not impressed and their club wants €30 mill for him. We could get a much better player for that price.

You can thank the likes of Hustini for that

I still love him, but if it were my money, I'd be less inclined to pay the 30 million now. Especially given the notion that his relationship with the fans is on shaky ground.
So then what's your valuation on the player, Jay? There's no way Fiorentina will let him go for 20M. I honestly think they'll probably be asking for at least 25M in cash, and potentially a favourable deal for them on one of our surplus pieces.
Maybe even a similar transaction to the 22M and change for Amauri, with Nocerino going in the opposite direction for 7M and change, or whatever it was.
There is always considerable risk involved in transactions of this type, but fair enough, brother.
