Juventus wants to add a new winger to their squad, and in the last few weeks, they have been speaking with Karim Adeyemi’s entourage.
The German wants the move, and Juve eventually found an agreement on personal terms with the Borussia Dortmund man.
However, BVB does not want him to leave the club and has set a high asking price for his signature.
Juve is now struggling to meet it, and reports suggest that they might abandon a move for him.
The Bianconeri remain interested, but it now seems unlikely that he will leave BVB unless for a huge fee, and Juve is not prepared to splash the cash.
Galeno is another target of theirs, but a report on Tuttomercatoweb claims he is also not cheap and could cost more than 30 million euros, which is beyond Juve’s budget.
They are now set to settle for Fiorentina’s Nicolas Gonzalez, who is valued at 30 million euros, and Juve can sign him for a smaller fee.
Juve FC Says
We need to add a new winger to our squad, and Gonzalez is not a poor choice, even though he is not at the top of our list now.
Adding him to the group meets our demands and ensures we go into the new campaign with a solid team.
Been a big fan of this guy for a while. Is he an upgrade on Soule though?
Hard to say. Soule scored 10 goals, but 6 came from the penalty spot. So it’s hard to say. I am not convinced that Adeyemi would adapt to Serie A, while Nico has been quite successful at Fiorentina. So I’d pick Nico, in order to avoid a Diego Ribas/Emre Can situation. Bundesliga players have a harder time to get used to Serie A
Cut price rebuild yet again. Let’s hope they prove us wrong on the pitch.
Handy player, but cutting corners is a disastrous way to do things. If we had Adeyemi, Koop and Todibo we we would have probably been serious contenders
With Thuram and Douglas Luiz we already are. But you’re right, Koop and Todibo would make us a match with shInter
