Unlikely he comes here imo. He's either going to juventus or staying in Paris, probably the former.

Tuttoshit reports the Nerazzurri could offer Matias Vecino in a player-plus-cash swap deal for Kean, with Everton as Carlo Ancelotti is an admirer of the Uruguay international.

As per La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Toffees’ asking price for Kean is €50m.
Juventus have put their former forward on top of their shopping list, even ahead of Sergio Aguero who will leave Manchester City at the end of his contract in June.
would be open to including Everton’s long-time target Merih Demiral in a swap deal to lower Kean’s price tag.

Kean is a product of Juventus’ academy and joined Everton from the Bianconeri in a €30m deal in 2019.

> I guess Marotta is trolling Paratici again :trolldad:

It's really weird if Juve are willing to offer Demiral for Kean. That would leave them only with De Ligt, a declining Bonucci and grandpa Chiellini who's expected to leave at the end of the season. They don't even have Romero anymore as Atalanta activated his option.

Btw once again Inter are linked with Giroud.

 

[DARi0]

Was thinking the same, why would juBentus give up Demiral now, when they need to change generations in their defence? Not plausible, unless they are bringing in experienced defender.

We know Conte has been after Olivier Giroud in the past 2 years and he is finally available for free this summer, so there are high chances he`s the Lukaku backup we`ll have.

 

[TheNetworkZ]

I'm okay with Giroud coming on a free. Solid backup, will only play when necessary, and he'll give Lukaku a much needed rest when it comes up.

If Giroud comes over here on a free, no complaints at all. Hopefully we can offload Pina pref sell.

Kaku Toro Alexis Giroud... thats a treble winning forward line for next season

 

[cuba gooding]

If it is free AND relatively low wages, no one would criticize that. The problem is if his wages are high. he will be worse than Vidal. Not to mention also the length of his contract. If we get Giroud for 3 years contract, we are doomed.

[CafeCordoba]

Yeah Giroud makes probably sense only for 1 year, he's targeting 2022 World Cup. After that, all the bets are off regarding his motivation and thus performance. But I'd definitely go for him if he accepts 1 year. Probably he asks at least 2.

 

[Bluenine]

There are rumours linking Inter to this kid. Love the fact that he is one of us and how he fucked Milan in the last game, but is he any better than say Pinamonti?

Raspadori: ‘Aguero my role model’
By Football Italia staff

Giacomo Raspadori claims Sergio Aguero is one of his role models and admits he supported Inter as a child.

A brace of the 21-year-old was decisive in Sassuolo’s 2-1 win over Milan on Wednesday.

“I liked Eto’o, I was an Interista when I was a child, and I still feel sympathy for them,” Raspadori told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“When I was a child, I was left-footed and left-handed. My brother was the opposite and I tried to imitate him.

“Now I can write with the right hand and I can kick with both feet. My brother is very important to me, he is the first person I call after every game.”

His second one against Milan was reminiscent of some Sergio Aguero’s goals.

“It’s one of his typical movements,” Raspadori admitted.

“I really like him for the way he is involved with the team. He is an inspiration for me, but the same is true of Tevez and Di Natale. De Zerbi often tells me it’s crucial to be complete and that I must be able to do everything when I am on the pitch."

giroud
raspadori

yep, treble for conte in group stage

 

[vex]

Dzeko for free, get rid of Sanchez somehow, bring de paul, and we are golden in attack if you ask me.

 

[wera]

I'd rather look towards selling Lukaku and Sanchez to bring Immobile, Berardi and a good LWB.

That's a quick way to miss out on top 4

selling any of our core players is a step back, but

i would rather not touch defence and midfield players.


selling clubs always got a list, to-sell list with oldest players, highest value players and wanted players/easiest to sell because nobody will pay anything for vecino, jmario, sanchez

3 oldest good inter players: devrij, brozo, lukaku
3 top wanted by other clubs: lukaku, lautaro, hakimi
3 highest value: lukaku, lautaro, hakimi


lukaku is the oldest, high value of 100+ mil and easiest to sell

the easiest to find a replace is devrij.

 

[KevinB]

Disagree. De Vrij is fundamental for our team. Arguably the best defender in the serie A.

 

[brehme1989]

The easiest to replace is Lukaku, especially if the City interest is confirmed. Same would apply for Lautaro if there's interest.
Another easy one to replace is the left wing back.

The toughest to replace will be the defenders.

Who could replace lukaku in the role he plays? Honestly I see him being the toughest to replace.

From Serie A alone you have Belotti and Zapata. For half the cost as well. Morata could as well, but let's not bother.

People tend to forget that it is a good thing if a CB isn't in the focus of attention. Fuck off with the PlusValenza, Stefan has to stay here without him Skriniar and Bastoni will have a huge drop in performance

Zapata is 30 and has only really been good in one team. Would love him here but this season hasn’t been the best for him.

 

[brehme1989]

He's been okay at Sampdoria and Udinese as well. Different situations for him. Atalanta is the first team to really give him a chance and they're ultra attacking so that helps.
