Juventus defender Alex Sandro has faced an uncertain future for much of this season as the club ponders on extending his deal or allowing him to leave as a free agent.
The Brazilian’s standard has slipped in this campaign and the club is now looking for a long-term successor.
However, before then, it seems he will be kept on, having improved in some months now.
A report on Tuttomercatoweb reveals Sandro is set to be handed a new deal by the club.
However, there is also an option of an automatic extension in his current deal if he plays up to 40 games for the club.
The report claims if Juve does not extend his stay with them, he might trigger the extension, having been a regular in recent weeks.
Juve FC Says
Sandro has been one of the finest players at Juve for much of his time in Turin, but he is not getting any younger, which has affected his performances.
We could get value by keeping him with us, but the defender is ageing and we must sort out a replacement for him as soon as we can.
If he keeps playing well for the remaining games of this season, we have no reason not to keep him in the group.
Why! Just why
The writer must not watch many Juve games. Sandro has been terrible for the last 3 seasons. He needs to go and a priority put on getting a couple of options at both left back and right back. We hope Allegri leaves the club too.
Think so too and Allegri playing him as a central defender in the 3-man-defenae makes it even worse.
But who’s going to play instead? We don’t have options, so we have to play him. Ww had a chance to sign Augusto, Molina, Udogie, but missed the chance.
He is declining from his strength..he tends to lose possession. You can see forwards overtaking him…extension should be the last you can think of him.
“If he keeps playing well for the remaining games of this season, we have no reason not to keep him in the group.” The guy is a disaster. He have caused us multiple defeats this season and have been particulary bad lately.
“Sandro has been one of the finest players at Juve for much of his time in Turin”
He was fine for the first 2 seasons. And then, the he started the circus act. He was one of the reasons we conceded goals from his flank. I hoped his howler against shInter in the supercup was his last act. But no, he keeps on performing. Good thing Ocampos got injured. Otherwise he would have humiliated him several times. Sandro never had a stable good performance except the first two seasons. Remember how we missed a chance to sell him to Chelsea a few seasons ago? We could have pocketed 40M
Sometimes it looks like the writer of JuveFC doesn’t hold a strong opinion of our players. Now he is one of our finest players and the next time he is terrible on the field.
It is obvious that we need reinforcements since Pirlo’s coaching era. We need to offload him even though he is certain of staying for another season. We need Mazraoui from Bayern Munich to begin with
Mazraoui plays mostly on the right ..so we need someone like Augusto/Parisi for the left..Singo is good for the right…NDicka for the LCB spot
