These clowns are in every news
This shit serious? I swear if we still had kept Allegri and then partnered with those nincompoops so called influencers I'd be done with Juventus for good. No doubt in my mind.

Jj and social media is like that Buscemi meme "How do you do fellow kids", trying so hard to be hip and appeal to the young kids, but in such cringe ways.

We all understand the accounting tricks. But there's other players we could sell if we wanted to. We could have sold Bremer for 70M for instance. Not saying we should though. If we sold Bremer would we just have to accept it because they did it?

At the end of the day, we sold Soule to help fund Douglas Luiz. That's what it really boils down to. In the long run, Luiz will cost us 30M net after the other players went to Aston Villa, so we basically traded three young players away for him.

Would the result be different if we regarded Soule as a better talent than he might be? Probably not, because regardless of who is in charge here, we always up selling or loaning young players. It's just what we do. I wouldn't be surprised if we ended up selling Yildiz next summer too. Interchange his name with Guler and it would be the same result as well. So the morale of the story is, it doesn't matter to many of us what the financing ramifications are. People are sick of this nonsense year after year.

We spent a lot on Douglas Luiz and he better put in consistent, world class performances, otherwise he will cost us huge in the long run.
It's undeniably a bad tactic in the long run. We're creating problems/payments for the future and therefor we have to up our game financially, which in theory should be doable be simple yearly CL qualifications to start with. While keeping everybody on lower wages...
Still, it's not very healthy to keep on doing this shit over and over again. Everyone is tired of this since it's year zero for the umpteenth time and it will be until we hit the mark financially and sporting-wise combined.

But we simply had no other choice (again) this summer because of what happened under the previous management (no need to recap all that shit but UEFA hurt us badly).

Selling our youth is something that must change as well but it's obvious why we had to. Our deadwood is too hard to move and we're trying to qualify for the CL. Selling assets like Bremer wouldn't be such a good idea. Vlahovic was already tried last year (because of his worth and his massive salary) but we failed and nobody wanted Lukaku anyway, lol.

You're acting like Juventus are the first club to do a deal with them. They're massive and already affiliated with big clubs and players (plus some huge athletes in the USA)

positive meeting coming soon regarding a positive meeting to discuss the agreement
I know Atlanta want Matt O’Riley - Is he good? and maybe we are signing the wrong guy if the 55M price is indeed true. Koop is a very good player but 55M seems a bit of an overvaluation..

I'm in my 30s and even I know who all 3 of those guys are. They move the needle with kids. If you can be affiliated with them (and Prime), it's a good thing for marketing.

I got zero problems with this.

Hell, I'd try to sell "Prime" t-shirts and gear on the website in Juventus colors, and as many Juventus Prime bottles as possible.
but thing is kids do not buy merchadise though. if they did prime wouldn't be in financial trouble

the hype is dead. football is dying. unless prime giving juve lots of cash for this there is no real benefit for juve.

I can just tell you I'm around it. I'm around youth hockey and kids aged like 6-13 are obsessed with Prime (and Logan Paul, KSI, and Speed). They all collect the bottles and it's just the cool thing to have.

I dont have their financial documents or know exactly what's going on with their business, but I see it with my own eyes.

Now, these are all mostly middle to upper class kids with parents that spend money. Is the average family that is struggling financially right now buying this stuff for their kids? I dont know.

Both Nico Gonzalez and Conceição play on the right wing. For the back up to Yildiz, Juventus would like to sign a player that will not add or put any pressure on the youngster. Keep an eye on El Shaarawy.
