And which of our sales went down easy or we sold for a low amount? Soule and Huijsen were dragging for weeks and we still managed to get good fees for them. The rest were brilliant sales, especially Kean and Kaio.
I don't agree selling Soule for 26m and Huijsen for 15m was good business, especially seing what other players are going for. There was also the alternative of actually keeping them. The issue is that everyone knew we were very desperate to raise money to sell them. Roma knew 26m was better than nothing in our pursuit of Koop. Everyone is calling our bluff.

Same thing with McKennie and the rest. McKennie for example came from a season where he lead our team in assists and actually had a positive season yet we're struggling bad with selling him. Unfortunately our desperation is tanking players values.

While for Soule I can agree, he probably should go for at least 35m total, but Huijsen is good price, for someone who was totally exposed defensively at Roma. Soule though was stubborn on Roma and we probably choose to not waste more time, but that is the only deal I could see us do better.

No, we just don't have any leverage in these negotiations. Soule would have gladly stayed, same thing with Huijsen. It's just that everyone knew that we were desperate to sell them to enable other targets.

Same thing will happen with the guys that we've transfer listed now that Motta mentioned yesterday. We have NO LEVERAGE.

#Milik is more towards staying with Juventus this summer then he is to leaving (Alfredo #Pedulla via YouTube)

I wouldn’t mind keeping him. He’s nothing special but they have more pressing needs. Just find some young #9 for next gen that has the talent to break through.

funny enough I think Huijsen is the one that went for too little while Soule went for a good price, if not more than his worth. Huijsen might be raw as a defender but ball playing CBs are valued in todays game, and he’s very good at it.

either way, it’s not something to really cry about.

Szczesny, Weston McKennie, De Sciglio, Arthur Melo, Kostic, Nicolussi-Caviglia, Rugani are all OUT of Juventus project. "We are convinced this is the best decision possible", Thiago Motta says. [Fabrizio Romano]

I dont really get what good with Hasa, his touch is very rough, when he dribble it seems just he like to buldoze everything in front of him. Maybe sometimes he can get past one player but then he will lose the ball by the second defender. He is on his last year of contract, better to sell him for some money and get some more from sell on clause % if he get more playing time elsewhere and attract big sales later

The maximum for him in my eyes is to become someone like Fabrizio Miccoli
Prime Miccoli is better than anyone we have right now.

imagine how insulting it is to tell juve fans that money is tight and has to be spent wisely.

then coming to say signing a 4th goalie was a market opportunity.

market opportunity for what? running out of money quicker?
