Obviously if we buy Icardi it means Dybala or Higuain (probably Dybala) is gone.
Higuain wont leave as I dont think our management are disappointed with him and he isnt really looking to change clubs... + He cost us 90M so I doubt we are going to sell a player that cost us that much so soon...
Dybala - He isnt the same type of player so replacing him with Icardi means changing formation and we will have a huge gap in creativity.. Makes no sense..

Icardi will probably leave Inter this summer but I see him being a sub at Real more than changing from Inter to Juve

I dont know about signing Icardi but I could see us going all in on the 433 and selling Dybala. We have some good wingers and Higuain would be better suited to the 433 so formation wise I could see us selling Dybla rather than us switching to something with 2 strikers and a CAM like what Italy played in 2006 WC. We have just got Costa, Bernardeschi, Cuadrado and Pjaca will return. So if anything Dyblala seems the odd man out in a position sense.

It would be a shame to sell Dybala tho as he is our best player and superstar. I love him but the club is probably asking themselves if we are better with a 4231 with Dybala or a more solid 433 without Dybala has more depth in the wing positions and CF? I would like to see this offense given more time to continue to develop as it is. Icardi buyout clause seems not as crazy as it used to these days at 110m. He is young, proven in Italy and would suit a 433. Also considering what players are going for currently his value is actually probably more than his buyout clause or would continue to grow.

Just wondering who would be in the center and who would be the supportive duo in 4-3-3 with Icardi Higuain D.Costa

I wouldn't like for it to happen, but I can definitely envision Marotta getting hard thinking about taking Icardi away from Inter.

Im actually thinking they would rotate them or eventually sell higuain in the future. It seems Juve currently feel a solid formation with depth in each position is important. If we rely on Dybala there is no one else like him in the squad but in the other areas of the offense we have 2 players in each position of high quality. So maybe they want to do it that way. Also if we sign Can we will have a lot of good central midfielders in Pjanic, MAtuidi, Khedira, Marchisio, Betancur, Can and Mandragora. I think we will make use of it and play a 3 man mid for the solidity

We won't sign Icardi. Dude's gonna go for some obscure amount to a Premiership club or Real.

Btw., Icardi might be a disgusting human being, but he is a fap worthy footballer.

His buyout is 110m. If Juve get 150 or 160 for Dybala I could see it happening.
Signing Icardi and then taking the remaining money and our summer transfer budget and going for another top player.. maybe Erikson or Lemar for left wing?

Why that desperate to sell Dybala ? Having two top frontline CF's makes zero sense.
