Juventus’ preparation continues at Continassa. Yesterday, Thiago Motta’s boys once again carried out a double training session as can be read in the report released by the Bianconeri: “At the Continassa sports centre, preparation continues in the second week of work for the team under the orders of Mister Thiago Motta. After yesterday’s, a new double training session is scheduled for the Bianconeri players. The morning began with a warm-up, followed by a finishing phase and ball exit and concluded with a match; in the afternoon there was space for ball possession work, athletics and a match with reduced goals. And tomorrow (today, ed.) it continues: appointment set for the morning”.
The Leicester-Roma duel for Soulè continues.
Continuous contacts between Juventus and Soulè’s entourage to find a solution for the future of the Argentine playmaker. Yesterday, Martin Guastadisegno, Soulè’s agent, was seen at Continassa, where he met Cristiano Giuntoli without, however, unblocking the situation related to his client. Leicester is pushing to buy the Argentine playmaker and is ready to present an offer of 30 million plus 5 in bonuses, conditions that could be accepted by Juventus. Soulè, however, would prefer to remain in Italy and would be ready to accept the courtship of De Rossi’s Roma. The Roman club has not yet presented an offer to the Old Lady and to date, despite the player’s wishes, appears to be behind Leicester.
Thiago Motta in favor of Chiesa-Raspadori swap.
An exchange that at this time of the market seems to be only a suggestion, but the future of Raspadori and Chiesa could be intertwined. In fact, Giuntoli is a great admirer of the 2000-born striker and it was he who brought the former Sassuolo player to Naples. Thiago Motta would also greatly appreciate the arrival of Giacomo Raspadori and would not oppose, indeed, a possible exchange with Federico Chiesa. The Juventus winger is now out of Juventus’ plans and will join his teammates only upon their return from the tour in Germany. Juventus has already communicated to Chiesa their desire to start over without him in this new technical project and the winger would be intrigued by the idea of working with Conte. At the moment, this exchange hypothesis can be classified as a simple suggestion, but if it depended on the two coaches, this exchange would be done without too much hesitation.
