Some observations:
- Vucinic deal was beautiful. 6M to receive upfront is definitely great. Plus his salary shed.
- Torino fucked us 3 times now lol. 15M for Ogbonna. Then, we get 8M for Immobile, when they get 10/12M for him, even though he was co-owned at half by both and they payed peanuts to get his first half. And finally, 3.5M for Quagliarella in 3 damn years - that's a bit more than 1M a year. We practically gave him away.
- But considered together, selling Vucinic + Quags for an almost 10M and being able to shed their salaries without having to pay part of it, plus 7.1M of this money being received upfront - good business by Marotta.
- Peluso was basically exchanged for Marrone 1/2 to get back - decent deal;
- 5.5M in 3 years for Sturaro is decent. The bonus will depend if the guy is good. If not, he will cost little. If he's good, 11M for a young Italian CM/DM capable of playing at Juve is good. This deal looks overpaid at first, than it looks decent.
- loaning Pereyra - if it Sorensen (valued at 1.5M) + Donis, I don't like it. But anyway, no money was spent for the deal itself. If it's really an OPTION to buy, I'm ok with it. Decent.
- Evra coming for 3.5M salaries net - that's a lot. But there weren't many options anyway. It's a try. Decent.
- Coman and Carlos Blanco are deals that I really like. Good.
- In the end, we paid a grand total of 13.5M for Isla. That is less than his total worth the time he was bought. If we sell him for 8/10M, it's not that bad.
- got robbed in Pasquato deal. No way in hell he's worth 3M.
- Zaza sale was awesome - Sassuolo really valued the guy at 15M? There must be another agreement in there. This probably includes some extra money they paid for maybe having Berardi for one more season.
- If we really agreed on 15M to buy Zaza back (which won't happen) and 10M for Berardi, it's good business. We should do something similar with Rugani. He may be pretty expensive next summer to bring him back.
Overall, mercato is decent. We are selling OK. Still got some deadweight to get rid of, what will be pretty difficult - De Ceglie, Motta, Padoin.
I'm afraid we overpaid crazily for Morata. It's a risky bet.
But in the end, we didn't do anything too stupid. We need at least to get a trequartista now. But I'd say it's decent.
Next summer, the club will have to spend a shitload of money. We have so many co-owns to resolve. I hope Gabbiadini and Boakye can have great seasons so we can sell them well. Berardi and Rugani together will cost like 17/18M.
But if everything goes right, next summer the squad will have a nice intake of youth, with Berardi, Rugani and Sturaro coming to us.

He looks overpaid, but I guess it's kind of ok. It's 5.5M guaranteed split on 3 years.
Then, 3.5M bonus depending on his performance or the team's performance in 2015/16, when he plays for us.
Plus 2M bonus depending on his performance this season at Serie A. If the guy is a bust, we'll end up paying 5.5M in 3 years and that's it. If he's good, he's gonna cost at least 7/8M, but it's a decent price for a good young Italian CM/DM nowadays.
He's less overpriced than it looks.

Jesus Maxwell Christ, Sturaro could cost 11m?
What are the bonuses? Do they apply to how he does on loan, or only playing for Juve?
