He wants to leave. They will sell him. But it seems he wants to return to us and we're considering it.

Both sides are willing to sell each other's 'surplus'(atleast in our case) but we're not finding common ground. They're demanding Caldara be included too but we are not down with the idea obviously. Atleast that's how I see this situation.

The apparent lack of offers for Higuain has complicated our situation. We'd be lucky to find a buyer to meet our demands. (~€55-€60M)

I fear we make a loss on this deal.

There's still Chelsea. Morata wants out and they got that French WC winner Jabroni who doesn't score FFS.

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

Milan buying Morata off them could help us out but I'm not too confident.

Higuain minusvalenza , Bonucci in and Caldara sold

#worst case scenario

When it came to Pogba's transfer Marotta said we don't believe in returns, but yeah let's get bonucci back

didn't he say there were exceptions?

We do great deals mostly but that there's not a single mercato where we don't do a fucked up deal. Ofcourse we'll win the league again after Allegri fixes the mess and everything is forgotten .

 

[Juvellino]

If Bonucci wants to leave bring him back on loan. Just like Matri

 

[Xperd]

Sometimes we need to see long term implications to our transfer businesses and as much as I like Higuain, his transfer fee is causing negative effects. If we can't break even with his sale, then in the grand scheme of things , it'll be viewed as a bad piece of business despite his contributions on the pitch for the last 2 years.

I was hoping he was talking about Pogba being the exception, can't believe he set up the bonnuci return and "I told you so" all the way back then

 

[ByzantineUSA]

Bonucci's wages and bad relationship with Alegri make him impossible to even think about ,why are we losing time discussing fantasies of clueless people?

 

[s4tch]

daily recap:
- bonucci returns
- we just might sell caldara, we are considering milan's offer
- elliot might want to invest in some players with actual resale value, so milan probably dropped their interest in higuain
- according to some guru, pjanic will be sold

that was a great fucking day on the internet. good night, everyone.

 

[IlCapitano]

Seems to me Bonucci wants out of the sinking ship and this is a perfect opportunity for his agent to leak some shit and perfect opportunity for us to put pressure on Sarri for Higuain. Higuain and Bonucci to Chelsea - Rugani and Caldara stay - ideal scenario.

Reliable guru from VS said last week Bonucci wants to come back but it doesn't mean feeling is mutual. Seems to me Beppe will do this only on his terms while dumping Higuain to Milan. If not, we wait for Chelsea.

 

[Catenaccio]

I thought guardiola had a hard on for Bonucci. Why wouldn't they go for him?

 

[Juverino]

The situation is pretty clear. We want to get rid of Higuain for 55-60M, and who buy Higuain will have a chance to get one of our young CB (Caldara or Rugani), just like Milan when they sold Thiago Silva and Ibra as one package in 2012.

Considering the situation, there are three outcomes
1. Chelsea takes Rugani + Higuain for 100M, with Higuain will be valued as 60M to avoid loss in FFP, and Rugani for 40M as plusvanza. This is the best possible outcome for us. I feel Caldara have better ceilling than Rugani.
2. Milan buy Caldara + Higuain for 100M, and Juve buy Bonucci for 40M. After that, we sell Benatia for 20M. It is an Ok solution in terms of finance but I hate it because we lose Caldara.
3. Noone get Higuain, and we still need a balance book, so one of Pjanic or Sandro will be sold. This is the worst outcome.

I have seen the commercial before so I knew where this was headed and it still didn't disappoint.

@Mark what are the individual respective chances of Pogs or another top midfielder joining?
