Juventus wants the Nerazzurri leader for next season, and the negotiations are now in full swing: a move to Turin at the end of the season.
There Juventus continue to plan the future, with Giuntoli who at the moment seems to have the final say on the choice not only of the players but also of the coach. Meanwhile in Turin they are waiting for the end of the season to understand their placement in the Championship and if it will be possible to lift a trophy, the Italian Cup, then there will be farewells with the current coach.
From a market perspective, Juventus promises great things changesboth incoming and outgoing, with many big names who could leave and important players who are instead expected in Turin to make Juve competitive again in Italy and Europe.
Giuntoli would have targeted one of the leaders of Atalanta, who after many years in Bergamo might feel the need to leave for a big team and try a new adventure. The club should not oppose the transfer, but the Dea will also wait until the end of the season to make all the important decisions given the many end-of-season commitments, including the final with Juventus.
Juventus, attempt for one of Atalanta’s senators
In the summer, to strengthen the squad, Juventus could therefore make an attempt for one of Atalanta’s senators, who is currently out and is not finding much space. We are talking about Mario Pasalic. The former Milan player, who found a new life in Bergamo after his loans – during his time at Chelsea – is struggling more this season given Gasperini’s constant rotations in midfield.
Players like Ederson, Lookman, De Ketelaere, are taking their place in the Croatian’s midfield, who had accustomed the team to goalscoring seasons – in terms of numbers – and which for two years however has seen the number 88 stuck with just 5 scoring goals. Juventus could therefore bring him to Turin, and the cost doesn’t even seem prohibitive.
Juventus, Pasalic idea: the price tag
Several media close to Juventus – above all TuttoJuve – have reported the Old Lady’s interest in recent months for Mario Pasalic. The Croatian, now no longer the permanent starter for Atalanta, could find new stimuli and minutes at Juventus, and leave Atalanta without regrets.
Juventus for their part could strengthen the midfield with quality and by inserting a player who is currently missing from the squad due to his characteristics. The evaluation of him with expiring contract in 2025 it is approximately 13 million.
