Juve is betting hard on the new objective and Giuntoli is not hiding: meeting with the management to try to open negotiations.
The Italian Cup final reached on Tuesday evening it was liberating at Juve. The two consecutive draws against Torino and Cagliari slowed down the race for the next Champions League again, but the sweet defeat against Lazio brought back serenity.
Next May 15th against Atalanta at the Olimpico the Bianconeri will play for the chance to end the year with a trophy and avoid being left empty-handed for the third consecutive season. Furthermore, this achievement allows the club to secure a place in the final four of the Italian Super Cup, which will bring new guaranteed income to the coffers.
The goal of Max Allegri is to bring the team to the maximum, that is to say in the Champions League and with another cup in the trophy cabinet, so as to be able to sit at the negotiating table with the upper hand. The Livornese wants to make the remaining year of his contract count and therefore if the club wants to change there will have to be an exemption and payment of every penny to him and his staff for the entire next season.
Change on the bench and beyond
The coaching question is of primary importance because the player market will also start from there. It’s no mystery that Juve likes him a lot Thiago Motta and with him on the bench the objectives can change based on the game plan he adopts.
At Bologna the Italian-Brazilian is used to playing with the 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 and therefore it is possible that the focus could shift to the wingers, both low and high. However, there is a role that always remains fixed regardless of the module, namely that of doorman. And in this case Juve already has clear ideas.
Juve, will the post Szczesny be Di Gregorio?
Wojciech Szczesny has been one of the best on the pitch for years now, but his contract is very heavy for the club’s coffers. 6.5 million euros net is a lot and it seems that the Pole is not willing to spread the salary by extending the current agreement which expires in 2025. Therefore, the club looks around and in case of the right offer, Szczesny can leave.
Mattia Perin gives many guarantees as also demonstrated against Lazio, but Juve is thinking of another profile. In fact, according to Tuttosport reports, Cristiano Giuntoli met Adriano Galliani to talk about Michele Di Gregorio. However, Monza values the goalkeeper at at least 30 million and the number one himself should accept the role of second for next season.
