You're being kind to Mediaset . They are notorious for their unreliability.
Jovetic is rated at €30m by Fiorentina and currently have received, over these last few weeks no less than three bids. Two from Juve, one from Napoli. The Juve bids were of around €15m and two players thought to be worth in the region of €7m combined.
Reports from GdS, CdS and T/sport at different times since early June have stated these offers to have been received by the Viola and rejected, stating that unless the player offered in exchange could improve their starting XI then they would seek cash only bids that meets their asking price.
He's a very fine player and would grace any top clubs in Europe. Someone like PSG or Monaco might just put in a sneaky €27.5m bid in the next few days and the Tuscan club might just for for it. A chief reason would be the immense satisfaction they would get from snubbing the Bianconeri. They have long memories and the Baggio affair still rankles.
The only problem, according to well placed sources, is that the player himself has publicly stated that he wants to be wearing the black and white stripes next season. Not too unlike the guy who held out for Bayern, despite reported interest from Manure and a few other clubs.
This is one of the reasons why so many transfers move into drawn out sagas a la Sanchez, Fabregas Lewandowski and Isco. There must be a dozen or two of these every Summer.
