Not to come off as salty but he had his opportunity to join Juve from what I recall. Unless we acquire him on the cheap he and Wolfsburg can suck it.

I'd rather pour every dime into bringing in Veratti if those rumors are true

For those who wants to get their muppet mode on:

Rumours saying Agnelli wants to break the bank on Verratti next summer (not to take too seriously). And

Verratti's agent: “Juventus are interested in Marco, it’s no secret. He could be the Higuain of the upcoming summer. Also, he could move to Bayern should Ancelotti still be in charge at the club. Making offers to PSG is difficult, however because they need no money and Verratti has no price. Persuading them will not be easy.”
Should have had a release clause in that contract or not sign an extension. The guy's career has maxed out in PSG because PSG has reached their ceiling. He needs a new experience to continue his growth. Bayern or Juve would be good for him. Barca or Madrid would be even better.

Barca would be most perfect for him, hope they don't want him or are afraid of the price tag like with Pogba.

Verratti is the one player I want
Verratti and Draxler would be so perfect. Get our regista and our CAM. :weee:

Draxler 'will leave Wolfsburg'
By Football Italia staff

Julian Draxler “will definitely leave Wolfsburg” next summer and Juventus are ready to revive their bid, reveals his intermediary.

The creative midfielder had been extremely close to Juve in the summer of 2015, but the Bianconeri pulled out and he moved from Schalke to Wolfsburg for €36m instead.

“Max Allegri had spoken to Draxler, they were in sync and there was an immediate rapport between them,” Fabio Parisi told Tuttosport.

Parisi is the intermediary who worked on that move with Juventus just over a year ago.

“Wolfsburg have strong owners, but unfortunately for the German fans, everyone wants to leave there. Over the summer Draxler was on the verge of joining Paris Saint-Germain, who had offered nearly €65m.

“He will definitely leave Wolfsburg at the end of the season. He would’ve gladly run to join Juve and is the ideal trequartista for Allegri.

“I repeat: Draxler will leave, but whether or not Juventus are interested again is another matter. I think the Bianconeri can still spend big money, as their revenue is close to that of the top European clubs.

“The very real profit made on Paul Pogba will have an effect on their balance sheets for the next few years, allowing Beppe Marotta and Fabio Paratici to make more investments.”

Arsenal are also known to be interested in the 23-year-old Germany international.
Sadly, we probably won't get either.

No salt here, but wasn't Draxler move collapse, because we're penny pinching, and VW came with a big offer?
I don't follow Bundesliga, but after such a display in CL, i would love to see him in Juve jersey.

Draxler wont come thats for sure
We already have Pjaca and signing Draxler would be like spitting in his face
Verratti - A long shot but who knows...

I heard rumors of 50M GBP+Fabregas for Bonucci - Anyone else heard it?
If its true (though I doubt it) I think we should consider that kind of cash even if Bonucci is definitely WC

We shouldn't sell Bonucci at any price IMO. Barzagli and Chiellini aren't getting any younger but we already have replacements - Benatia and Rugani. Don't touch if it ain't broken I'd say. If we want to be competitive, we can't sell our best players. It happened a bit too often recently as to my liking, so hell no - Bonucci is not for sale.

Verratti would be sweet indeed, but he doesn't improve our team IMO. We get a stronger bench, definitely, but I don't see him justify the resources we could use elsewhere.

I hope Verratti is our next #10. If he joins he is definitely getting number 10.

Just imagine how many jerseys would Verratti sell, it would probably be a record.
