With interest in Serge Aurier and Danilo on the wane, Juventus have turned their attention to Valencia’s marauding right-back Joao Cancelo.
With Dani Alves’ departure ahead of his inevitable move to Manchester City confirmed last week , the search for a new right-back has intensified with PSG’s Serge Aurier and Real Madrid’s Danilo top of the list.
Despite Juve’s interest in the pair, it’s reported that Aurier doesn’t hold a French passport while Danilo was valued at €30m, an amount Juve weren’t prepared to spend.
As such, Sky Sport Italia and Gazzetta Dello Sport report that Valencia’s Cancelo has emerged at the main target.
Juve have good relations with the Spanish side given both Simone Zaza and Neto have moved there in the past year.
Cancelo could cost anything up to €25m and has a European passport, freeing a space in the squad for Douglas Costa who is expected to finalise his move to Turin in the coming week.
Schick, Cancelo, Costa, Bernardeschi, Ceballos, and a more physical DM — yeah I’d be pretty happy heading into the next campaign.
Let’s get these done!
Ceballos is going to RM unfortunately.
I actually like cancelo better than Danilo, he’s much better going forward but won’t come cheap. I can see us factoring in the zaza and neto deal for him. I’d say we can probably get him for around 25 million, can’t see Valencia selling any cheaper.
Have no idea at all how good Cancelo is or what style of player he is. Anyone who watched some games?
like benjamin Mendy but with far less hype
Same here my friend, it’s enough for me to watch all juve games and MOTD every week from my homeland and keep abreast of GFC horrors. No time to watch la liga or anywhere else…
No doubt we will see a few YouTube wizards spring into action to explain more. Yet I will hope that someone who watches Valencia as avidly as we watch Juve can offer a decent opinion.
YASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you PSG’s and Real Madrid for playing hard ball! now we get the best possible player from the group of RB being touted. LETS GET THIS ONE DONE!!!!
