Curious why you think its a policy. Its very rare for a player to return to a club in general I cant think of any examples other than Sahin and Gotze going back to Dortmund. We look like we might get Morata again. Did Beppe say something about not accepting player returns?
Yep. He has mentioned a few times that he's not a fan of ex players re-joining Juve.

Diego Godin is a Juventus target | Calciomercato.com

CalcioMercato can exclusively reveal :)D) that Juventus have made contact with Atletico Madrid for the signing of defender Diego Godin.

The 32-year-old Godin has emerged as one of the most consistent defenders in the world and has become one of the most important players for Atletico over the last four seasons. This season too, he impressed for the club, appearing in 30 La Liga games.

CalcioMercato can exclusively understand :)D)that the Old Lady have made contact with the Los Rojiblancos in the hope of signing Godin, who they see as a defender who will be a cheap and effective replacement, if Medhi Benatia leaves the club.

Godin's current deal expires in the summer of 2019 and with Benatia having announced that he will keep his options about an exit open, Juve feel that Godin will be the right man to replace the former Bayern Munich man.

The bianconeri feel that Godin will be a very feasible purchase, not just because of the fee but because the experience of the Uruguayan will also come in handy.

God I have such high hopes. With Can and just one world class CM we could be the best in the world I just know it.

I swear every year experiencing the transfer market as a Juve fan, being linked with all these players, is like being Dennis'd.

interesting! It'd be very weird if he finds an ex-juve player who is still pretty good and at a great price and says no to them and goes for a worse player at a worse deal. It'd be irrational as fuck

I still can't figure out why he hates us so much? We're not even rivals.
Lazio definitely consider us rivals and I think a lot of upper mid table Serie A clubs aren't too happy about Juve picking up their best players. Remember when we took Higgy from Nipples and Pjanic from Roma in one summer?

They don't want their best players going to Juve every summer.

Yeah but Bayern do the same in Germany, PSG in France, MU in England, RM and Barça in Spain, I don't hear about the smaller selling teams giving them a hard time when they approach a player. For god's sake, Bayern they even sign the other teams star players for free.

idk the culture in Italy is different. The presidents are less professional and take things very personally.

Look at people like De Laurentis, Ferrero, Zamparini. They're all characters.

True. That's why I don't see a way out for Italian football, not as long as these clowns are in reign.

That’s because Italian presidents their teams are a personal extension of them. It’s all about passion in Italy. Passion of life, art, food , calcio etc

I agree it is much better than having foreign investors like Inter's. Would so much rather see a Ferrero celebrating madly in the stands then some bored liking Chinaman who is texting during the game but the flipside is that it does create difficulties for Juve. Teams will turn down sensible offers from Juve just to spite us.
