Regarding next mercato.

I'll try to go into Marotta's and Paratici heads regarding the youngsters we have (Rugani, Zaza, Berardi). Many signs were given by them so far. I think it's safe to conclude that:

- Rugani is seen as a ready player despite his young age. They already paid for the other half to avoid competition upfront. He will be brought back right away.

- Zaza is also seen as ready player to take part in the rotation. Marotta has stated that he tried to get him in january to compensate the loss of Giovinco. He will be bought for 15M in june. That's 100%.

- Marotta never let anything really clear about bringing Berardi back now. But he has some factors against it:

. only 20 yrs old;
. he is having an inconsistent season (despite great numbers once again, Zaza is less spectacular but a more consistent performer);
. he has had discipline problems with a lot of red cards;
. he plays as an inside forward, not exactly a winger. It is doubtful where he would fit in this team with the current scheme, which should be maintained by Allegri since results have been good so far.
. He will cost 13/15M for his half, and the burden gets bigger when you consider the money to be paid for Zaza;
. If Juve doesn't buy his half, they'll have to sell it to Sassuolo. It should be sold for like 10M. They'd make a profit and compensate on paying for Zaza.
. Marotta can define a buy back clause for Berardi for the next seasons. The risk of losing him is not big since the very close approach with Sassuolo.

So IMO Berardi is not coming, unless he puts in an amazing 2nd semester.

So in a conservative approach, things won't change much. I'll try to be optimistic as we sign an AM like Mikhtarian, using the sales of Isla and Ogbonna for it.

- Allegri stays (doing a good job so far);
- Pogba stays (unless he drops amazing performances in Europe);
- Pirlo stays (he has declared he doesn't see retirement yet and Allegri is not willing to bench him);
- Vidal stays (very bad season probably cooled interest);
- Llorente stays (I doubt he'd accept moving to a meh EPL club. Maybe Valencia, but I bet he'd want to stay);
- Morata stays (Madrid only using buyback clause in 2016 when the player will decide);
- Rugani and Zaza immediatly in;
- Ogbonna sold to free space to Rugani;
- Berardi's half sold with buyback clause + Coman loan out;
- Neto in (free transfer).
- AM in (thinking about Mikhtarian)
- Expenditure around 20/30M, counting on Pereyra's 14M and sales of Isla and Ogbonna.


Starting team: Buffon - Licth, Bonucci, Chiellini, Asamoah - Pirlo, Marchisio, Pogba - Mikhtarian - Tevez, Morata

Bench: Neto - Caceres, Barzagli, Rugani, Evra - Sturaro, Vidal, Padoin, Pereyra - Zaza, Llorente (+ 3rd GK + De Ceglie + Scrub 5th striker)

good explanation.
overall i agree with your explanation.
but, i disagree with some of them.

first, i dont think juve will sell ogbonna while barzagli will leave in 2016 and chiellini decline.
unless there is a club who want to buy him around 15m.

second, Berardi has 8 yellow card same as Zaza. i dont think Zaza has better than berardi about Discipline aspect.
I am not sure about this.
but, when i saw ( about 6-7 games ) he played, he helped the defence to much.
difference with his pre season.
but, berardi's help makes sassuolo perform better.

third, i don't think Allegri will be a reason juventus to buy a important player like mikhtaryan ( i say important because he will be biggest spending at marotta era ).
Allegri's contract will expire at 2016.
and I dont think he will be our coach for a long time.

Manchester United target Axel Witsel has hinted that he could join Juventus in the summer.

The Belgian has previously been heavily linked with a switch to Old Trafford as the Red Devils attempt to bolster their midfield options.

However, Juventus have also joined the running for the 26-year-old's services as they make contingency plans in case Paul Pogba is sold.

The Frenchman is a target for Real Madrid and in preparation for his possible departure Juventus are said to have sounded out Witsel over a move to Italy.

And the Belgium international has now admitted that a move to the Serie A champions could happen.

"Joining Juventus next summer? We'll have to wait until the summer transfer market, then we'll see," Witsel told voetbalkrant.com.

"My youth idol was Zinedine Zidane, and I admire Andrea Pirlo a lot - he's one of the best players in the world."

We're still weak in a few starting positions and that should be our priority heading into the summer mercato. Depending on how well Pereyra does from now till the end of the season I reckon we're gonna need to sign a quality trequartista. A proper no10, who creates and scores goals but also works hard as our team has no space for slackers like mata and ozil. Pastore IMO would be ideal. I don't trust Mkhiwhatnot's finishing for 1 second. Great shot, great passing and a great athlete. Hasn't pulled any trees since being in france and would probably like a return back to serie a plus his contract is ending in '16.

Getting in a tevez replacement is going to be a hassle. There are a few candidates out there. Kramaric, dybala would be a nice start to a shortlist.

A leftback is an issue that we probably aren't going to get right in a hurry. Alex Sandro is for me one of the few currently out there that could come in and get the job done. Great attacker and a more than good enough defender.

Going into next season with a starting 11 like this would be great:
-----------Tevez--------Morata----------
------------------Pastore-----------------
-------Pogba------------------Vidal------
-----------------Marchiso----------------
Sandro--Chiellini--Bonucci--Litcht--
------------------Buffon-----------------
Signings like Allan would be good but let's handle the first 11 first.
