not too reliable, especially after last summer, when he pushed his pep agenda until literally the last hour before juve announced sarri. but this rumor has been going around for a while, and even paratici all but confirmed the talks in an interview the other day.
pjanic was about to be sold last summer before allegedly sarri stopped the sale, so no wonder that his motivation dropped for this season, seeing that the club doesn't really care about him anymore. he's still a quality player. barcelona want pjanic because he's much better and consistent (yes, tuz) than all of their midfielders bar busquets, he's available, and juve is open to swap deals. barca was lacking liquidity badly even before this corona-shit hit the fan.

Even Di Marzio confirmed there was something going on with Pep, but he refused us.
He is among the first to know if a player is ill (broke the news of de ligt playing while injured,etc) or those behind the scene stuff. He is hit and miss, but he has had rumors that turned out right too

Momblano is dead to me until further notice. But it's possible he has sources and they were just using him to distribute misinformation (I also believe we were legitimately targeting Pep). In which case he's unreliable. But it could be different than him just making shit up. He has been right before.
iirc momblano didn't even know about sarri until 1 or 2 days prior to the official announcement, while dimarzio and co were covering the story for weeks. imagine mombly's sources... i have nothing against him, somehow i even like his retarded antics, he's probably a good guy and a true juventino, but as an original source, he's nothing but gossip level.
i dont think there was a serious push for Pep, at least not this summer but the rumors were benificial to the board. more press, attention when linked with biggest name in coaching and less time for social media campaigns against the actual target, a mediocre man from a former rival with a history of unprofessional comments against juve
