Juve make Cassano Bid

Lil White Azz:
But what about Juve's defence and midfield? Like what's the situation??

acbaylove:
Well, let's say we have already a good defence (Zebina, Thuram, Cannavaro & Zambrotta) so we simply have to replace Montero & Ferrara who will retire :'(. Rumors are that we signed/are about to sign Robert Kovac from Bayern Munchen as a free agent, and we will probably add Igor Tudor (from Siena) in the roster too. Another player we will add in the roster for sure is Zambrotta's backup leftback Giorgio Chiellini. He's a 20 years old player who plays for the National team too, as a reserve. I dunno about other movements.

About the midfield, the real player Juve is searching to buy is a central midfielder to pair with Emerson. A big name. But i dont know who he is yet.

Look, you never know what Juventus general manager is doing. Never. He always lie. Last year he bought Cannavaro & Ibrahimovic just 2 hours before the end of the market. He's like that. So we simply have to wait till it's over for all the surprises. Never trusts newspapers talking about Juve market.

P.S. Right now Juve is in Japan for a tournee.

Maybe this could be your new midfielder...


Giannachedda snubs Lazio for Juventus contract offer
tribalfootball.com - June 2, 2005

Lazio midfielder Giuliano Giannichedda is expected to be confirmed a Juventus player before the weekend.
 
Giannichedda is moving to the Serie A champions in a Bosman transfer after rejecting a new contract offer from Lazio president Claudio Lotito in a tense meeting on Tuesday.

Lazio had offered a two-year deal worth £600,000-a-season, but Giannichedda has turned it down in favour of Juve.

The Italian champs have tabled a two-year deal, with an option of another year, worth £800,000-a-season to the midfielder.

hes not that big a name though..... maybe somebody like figo, who is supposed to be available from real.... hes still only 32 and could play at a high level with a change of scenery i think

See, there are a lot of player who every summer are about to move to Turin, according to journalists. It's Italy, lol. Football sells. Let me quickly write down all the players we've already acquired according to them (i aint lying): Chiellini (Fiorentina), Kovac (Bayern M.), Barzagli (Palermo), Evra (Monaco), Chivu (Roma), Kromkamp (AZ Alkmaar), Diogo (River Plate), Coda (Empoli), Bonera (Parma), Bovo (Parma), Cassetti (Lecce), Heitinga (Ajax), Ibanez (Atletic Bilbao), Samuel (Real Madrid), Mancini (Roma), Perea (Atletic Madrid), Parisi (Messina), Meghni (Bologna), Essien (Lyon), Mascherano (River Plate), Edu (Arsenal), Zokora (Saint Etienne), Giannichedda (Lazio), Maxwell (Ajax), Ledesma (Lecce), Mozart (Reggina), Szymkowiak (Trabzonspor), Joachin (Real Betis), Pizarro (Udinese), C. Zanetti (Inter), Xavi (Barcellona), Helguera (Real Madrid), Gerrard (Liverpool), Cassano (Roma), Giliardino (Parma), Vieri (Inter), Recoba (Inter), Nonda (Monaco), Fernando Torres (Atletic Madrid), Robinho (Santos). I mean we're talking about nothing. Giannichedda is a free agent, and for sure he's interested in signing with a good team like Inter, Milan or Juve. But nothing is official yet. Yesterday they said Edu from Arsenal was official, but i've heard he signed with Liverpool. We just have to wait. Capello said they'll sign at least 2 "good" players with the same skills of last year's aquisitions (Cannavaro, Emerson, Ibrahimovic, Mutu), we will see. Giannichedda aint a champion for sure, so if we buy him for free, it's for the bench.
