Juventus is looking for a new central defender to give to Thiago Motta. The reinforcement will not be Riccardo Calafiori, who the new Juventus coach relaunched in Bologna last season. In fact, the Italian international born in 2002 and trained at Roma is destined for Arsenal, who are investing 40 million euros plus another 5 million in bonuses for his registration.
TODIBO – The chosen one is Jean-Clair Todibo. Cristiano Giuntoli already has an agreement with the player in his pocket and has started working to find an agreement with Nice, repeating the path already taken with midfielder Khéphren Thuram, who has already arrived in Turin. Todibo had been practically sold to Manchester United, but the transfer could not materialize because it would have violated the UEFA rules on timeshare, given that Jim Ratcliffe is the owner of Nice and a shareholder of the English club. So the Red Devils have turned to the 18-year-old Leny Yoro of Lille, snatched from Real Madrid for a whopping 62 million euros.
HUIJSEN – To finance the purchase of Todibo, Juventus has decided to sacrifice Dan Huijsen on the outgoing market. Returned from his loan at Roma, the defender born in 2005 was not called up for the Herzogenaurach training camp in Germany. Where Stuttgart and Wolfsburg have their eyes on him, already at the center of interest from Paris Saint-Germain.
