Kovacic >>> sms or golovin

+ cheaper than sms, although maybe more expensive than golovin
+ much better experience on the highest stage due to playing with Madrid.
+ already played on Italy too.
+ motivated to prove himself on the biggest stage, while sms may as well crumble in a big club (unproven yet), golovin has big question mark.

Get kovacic, it's no brainer here.

We should absolutely have a try for Kovacic. Still young, multiple CL winner, experience of playing for a big team after he moved to Madrid to fight for a CM spot against some of the worlds best midfielders. I think he’d be a star at Juve.

On it Beppe

I think we will get Kovacic if Pjanic goes to Barca and besides Kovacic we'll get another good mid, hopefully SMS. Tuz be ok with Can - Kovacic - SMS, tho it's 100% a new mid? I don't see us having Kova and Pjanic i the same mid.

more like the poster is a no brainer

SMS and Golovin are B2B players whereas Kovacic is not, what's the purpose of comparing?


Kovacic is only relevant if pjanic leaves but if Kovacic/Pjanic swap happens we still have no B2Bs

Kovacic best position is as a BtB mid. Infact he has a lot in common with Golovin as a player.

That would be an awesome mid. Young, talented and wellbalanced.

Juve target defensive replacements?
By Football Italia staff

Juventus would target Diego Godin and Matthijs De Ligt in the event that Mehdi Benatia and Daniele Rugani leave, according to reports.

Tuttosport suggests the Old Lady do not want to lose either of the Moroccan and Italy internationals, although they would not stand in the way of either player if the right offer came along.

Benatia is thought to have attracted the interest of Arsenal and Marseille, while Chelsea are said to be keen on Rugani.

Juve reportedly value Benatia at €25m, while Rugani’s worth is estimated to be between €35m and €40m.

In the event that the duo depart, the Italian daily believes the Bianconeri’s prime target would be Uruguayan Godin.

The 32-year-old has been at Atletico Madridsince 2010, during which time he has established himself as a lynchpin of Diego Simeone’s team and one of European football’s most accomplished centre-backs.

Also on Juve’s radar is promising defender De Ligt. Though just 18 years old, the Ajax player was virtually ever-present for his side last season and is highly rated by leading clubs around Europe.

Only played ther because of Casemiro. He wants to play deep

I dont see him as golovin at all
From what I seen of Golovin, he has a very good drive with the ball, fantastic close control and maybe he still lacks some physic. Reminds me a lot of Kovacic before he went to Real.

Kovacic would be wasted as a holding mid. Hes best attribut is that he is fantastic when driving the ball forward.
