Juventus has big plans for the summer transfer period. La Gazzetta dello Sport reveals on Wednesday that the Italian superpower has, among others, Arek Milik and Robin Gosens high on the wish list. According to the authoritative sports newspaper, technical director Fabio Paratici is willing to spend a total of 92 million euros on three purchases for Juventus.
La Gazzetta dello Sport thinks that Juventus has spent at least forty million euros on the versatile Gosens, who can also be used as a midfielder in addition to left back. Since his contract with Atalanta expires in 2022, it is not impossible that he will be sold this summer, in order to prevent Gosens from leaving for free in more than a year. The same amount would already have been reserved for Manuel Locatelli, who is causing a furore in Sassuolo’s midfield this season. The 23-year-old Italian’s contract expires in 2023. Not so long ago, Locatelli was also associated with a return to AC Milan.
Milik seems to cost Juventus significantly less, because behind the name of the Olympique Marseille attacker is an amount of twelve million euros. The former top scorer of Ajax was released by the French club from his hopeless situation at Napoli in January. Milik was sidetracked by last October i Partenopei, after he refused to leave the club for a multimillion dollar amount. The attacker was also not registered for the Serie A and Europa League. Only three months later, the switch to Marseille followed.
Fabio Paratici has big transfer plans at Juventus.
Calciomercato also reports that Milik is followed by Juventus, which is thinking about a life after Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese seems to be dissatisfied with Juventus and there are stories in Spain that a return to Real Madrid is a realistic option. However, should he stay, given his annual salary of 31 million euros, it is not realistic that Juventus will pick up a new striker for tens of millions. In addition, it is expected that Álvaro Morata will stay for at least another year, so that Atlético Madrid will again receive a rent of ten million euros. Milik would be a serious option for Paratics as he is said to settle for a regular salary in Turin. In addition to the Marseille striker, Moise Kean and Mauro Icardi (Paris Saint-Germain) are pushed forward, while Sergio Agüero, with an expiring contract with Manchester City, is also identified as a possible candidate.
Gosens was last July by the local newspaper Corriere Torino has been associated with Juventus, although a transfer did not get off the ground at the time. A short time later, several English media mentioned him at Chelsea. Despite all the rumors, Gosens still plays at Atalanta, which was eliminated by Real Madrid on Tuesday-evening in the eighth final of the Champions League.
