:D I don't think there's mutual love between Juve and Lichtsteiner, I think he's leaving.

I, for one, don't know what to think of Pjaca. I expeted a lot more. He's talented but it seems something is holding him back. Dunno why but I wouldn't be surprised if we sold him this summer to England or Spain.
Maybe his injury?

Be honest, I can't believe that Allegri asked for 6 new players, that is a lot of players during a summer.
I am also worried about Bonucci leaving...this would mean we need to sign central defender too.

Why not? Its not like he asked 6 starters. Can totally see 6 additions if u consider everything:

Backup to Higuain: 1
Winger: 1 or 2
CM/DM: 1 or 2
Potentially another fullback for cover/backup: 1
Already 6

no, what did he say? On VS some are pretty sure he's coming here.
Read Berna's first choice/priority is Juve

Not sure if Juve's priority is Berna though

I think we'll give a try for Di Maria otherwise we'll end up buying within the league imo

Thanks, I checked it out. It seems speculative, how reliable is Libero? I don't keep too many tabs on which journals are better or worse.

From that article (for anyone else interested) it says that we are looking at 6 sales, which may include Bonucci and Cuadrado.

Asamoah (possible Galatasaray)
Lemina (possible Valencia)
Neto (idea Napoli)
Bonucci (City, Chelsea, Madrid)
Cuadrado (?)
Khedira (MLS?)

Reasons given are that the first 3 are not good enough (we all know that). That Khedira wants to go to the MLS. That Cuadrado's Cardiff night showed he is not the player for these levels. Finally, that Bonucci may have the idea of a different adventure.

It says that the ideas are
Douglas Costa (30m)
Patrick Schick (25m)
Keita Balde (20m)

For Allegri the key players, where the tension is:
Di Maria (60m)
Marquinhos (35m)
Tolisso (40m)


Marotta on the other hand proposes
De Vrij
Fabinho/N'Zonzi
Bernardeschi

Added to that are the ideas of
Szcezsny
De Sciglio

-------------------------------------------------

It seems absurd that we would want PSG's Marquinhos.

Yeah, you are right regarding the positions, I am just not sure we have enough money for these signings.
Higu backup: Schick -> 25M
Winger: Costa (30M), Keita (30-40M), Bernardeschi (~50M)
CM/DM: Fabinho (30M), Tolisso (50M?)
Fullback: good question
