I'm seeing those rumours a lot nowadays. If true, what a squad Juve will have!
Juve seem to have bought everyone over the past 2 years according to the media yet their squad doesn't seem to reflect that.
Juve have a fantastic squad, full of the best italian young players and players like vidal and pogba.
I'm not sure Juve will win that much with Marchisio, Vidal, Pirlo, Sanchez, Llorente, Pogba, Lichtsteiner and Chiellini, Vucinic et al - other than Serie A titles for a couple of years.
They are still way behind Bayern, Real, Barça and the Rags.
In the meantime, we need to seal a major deal or two in coming 2 to 4 weeks to stave off any further unrest that may or may not exist from within, if rumours re Yaya have any mileage.
Sanchez is just one of around twenty or more players that could be considered as an attacking option if trouble was taken to scour clubs worldwide where real talent at a fraction of the price . Clubs like Udinese (Sanchez's old club) Napoli, Palermo and a host of Spanish clubs have been active in the S American market for years.
Given our requirement to meet FFP regs and the need to reduce our cost base on fees, salaries and the like, we need now to be at the forefront of scouting, and recruiting, special talent from places like Chile, Uruguay, Brazil, Argentina, France, the Balkans and Holland.
We have dipped our toes into this market with Nastasic, but we need to put far more emphasis in this area.
