Stevan Jovetic

[Tez Tosterone]

Hope it is true, but sorry to say Mediaset isn't the greatest source. We'll see but there's more tangible evidence of us prying Osvaldo from Serie A than Jovetic at the moment.

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.

 

[carlos tevez is a blue]

but he's fast, he's quick and he's got pace.

No he's not.

Much rather have him than Negredo.

Much rather have him than Negredo.

I'd much rather have the player more likely to score lots of goals. Therefore Negredo it is.

I think the question more pertinent for us is how to best facilitate Aguero scoring lots of goals. A second striker like Negredo? Or one like Jovetic? Or even a second striker at all?

I'd rather have Jovetic, but only because he's got untapped potential and would be more exciting. I think what we see is what we get with Negredo, which could be good or bad depending on how you look at it!

Not that I'm advocating for Jovetic necessarily or against Negredo necessarily but I don't believe Negredo had scored 20 goals in back to back seasons has he?

Many Juve fans on their forum were disappointed to get Tevez instead of Jovetic.

Aguero, Jovetic, Negredo, Dzeko

Giudetti on loan ....

Happy with that

Yeah that's the 4 I'd choose. Add a back up defender and call it a day.

Would very happy to go into next season season with that forward line. Not too many changes, new blood, some slightly different options.

No way

Shirt sales have gone ballistic and season ticket sales are doing extremely well.

If they sign Jovetic and Ogbonna they will have a formidable squad with Tevez , Vidal, Chiellini, Lichtsteiner, Pogba, Llorente, Pirlo, Vucinic, Marchisio, Asamoah, Bonucci, Buffon, Barzagli amongst them.

Good for you.

You didn't want Neymar not long ago either. Forgive me for blanking your opinions.

Yes way

 

[Hamann Pineapple]

If his name doesn't end in O he's not coming in.

 

[Rammyblues]

Must be something to do with club shop they have over stocked on O s told Pellegrini who has planned our summer strategy around signing players with O at the end of their names. Simples :-)

 

[citizens_1976]

Aguero, Jovetic, Negredo and Dzeko would be perfect.

Id be happy with that. Jovetic is a must signing and he is the type of signing that would make other big premier league clubs stand up and take note. We have not had one of them since Aguero and guess what... HE WON US THE PREMIER LEAGUE TITLE!

About time we bought on big potential instead of 2nd tier also rans.

Come on City, lets have some FECKING ambition!

 

[BlueAnorak]

We have something they want - Pants.
We have a good relationship with Fiorentina - And supposedly first dibs on Jovetic as a result - so unless Bale is coming our way then do the deal Txiki.
Will be a great asset for us - mainly as a wide player on the left.

Jovetic would be an x factor.. much like navas.. worth a go :)

Out of curiosity, people who have seen a fair bit of each player, how does Jovetic compare with Lamela?
