Dusan Vlahovic | Signed for Juventus

The Times now claiming Juventus have made an official offer.

It’s supposedly €30M + a player, if to be believed. A ridiculous offer

 

[The Pandorica Opened]

Watched Juventus draw 0-0 last night with Morata being as impactful as a big-breasted stripper in a gay club. Hard to believe they won't be going ham for this guy, proven in their league and well within their price range. I can already see this summer playing out: walking away from Haaland, £50m bid for Felix rejected, £60m bid for Kane rejected, Alvarez as striker for two weeks before going back to false nine and winning trophies all over again.

It may be true that Vlahovic ends up at Juventus, but it should be warned that most of these sources pushing “he wants Juventus” and “it’s his dream since as a kid” are just more examples of the Italian sports media doing what they always do. They play their big team up just like you see with the Spanish media with Haaland (it’s also “his dream”, “his only option”, “a deal has already been agreed” etc), and the overreaction here, with both players, is that many posters buy this crap at face value. I’m very skeptical

I get your point of view but I also understand why a move to juve would be so appealing, he knows the league and the language and it is best club in the league by some distance its a low risk high reward career move.

I’m not denying that it’s a strong possibility, I’m just warning that people are taking some very questionable rumors (given the sources and their history) to allow a bunch of cliches to come alive. So with Vlahovic, “of course he wants Juventus, players from that part of the world yadda yadda, another player that won’t leave Italy, Juve fan since a kid etc”.
With Haaland, “of course Madrid/Barcelona, big clubs!, big money!, weather! yadda yadda”. And the evidence is minimal and questionable, to say the least. Not to add the overall pessimism here that any player couldn’t possibly prefer us over those clubs. And I should also say that media in the UK too are quick to play into those cliches, thus fueling the climate to overreactions here and in other social media

Agree, it is. They know what they are doing though, the media will play their part, the player will do his bit (if you believe the media he is forcing a move now), they will lowball till they get somewhere less than fiorentina want but will geel they have to accept

I still laugh my head off with the amount of ‘Tier One’ Juve sources insisting Pep had signed a five year contract there two years ago

Probably do what they did with Locatelli. Some random youngster and 50m in 3 years, Fiorentina will probably bow down.

Juventus have me an offer but apparantly as of earlier today he is holding out to come to us.
It will be interesting how this pans out.
