Juventus is in reconstruction mode. Due to the scandal with capital gains, the Italian giant has been kicked out of Europe for a year and was punished with 10 points in Serie A. So, Juve has decided to turn to squad reduction/transformation in 2023. Some hard financial truths have been accepted, and currently, there is an ongoing process with Chelsea which should result in a swap between Dušan Vlahović and Romelu Lukaku. From that potential deal, Juve could come out with the Belgian striker and around 40 million euros, which they plan to use in order to strengthen the squad, from which players like Dejan Kuluševski, Angel Di Maria and Juan Cuadrado went in June. And with a potential two new deals, Juve can easily challenge Napoli for the title.The offers are in, Amrabat is off – except we don’t know whereThe Neapolitans are in risk of losing the couple of their first team players and they also changed the charismatic coach Luciano Spalletti, so nobody knows how they will look like in 2023/24. That is good news for Inter and Juve, who have every intention to attack the Serie A crown, and it will be a lot easier for “the Old Lady” to do it with Nicolo Zaniolo and Sofyan Amrabat in the team. Turkish outlet Fanatik is writing of Juve’s interest in former Roma forward. In fact, then things got heated in December between Roma, Zaniolo and the fans, Juve was among the first clubs to offer a fee for the player, but Roma wanted more. Nicolo was keen to join the Turin club, but in the end, Turkey was his destination and he joined Galatasaray. He needed to get out of Italy quickly and played good in Turkey for six months, but everybody knew that Zaniolo is not looking to stay there long-term. So, a 35 million euros clause has been inserted into his contract, but Juve being in a modest financial situation want to negotiate a lower fee, knowing that the player wants to go to Turin. Allegri: “We must return to the Champions League”The other player or interest is the Moroccan international, who has been connected with numerous clubs in Europe since his excellent performances at the World Cup in Qatar. Manchester United looked like a certain bet, since they need that type of player and Erik Ten Hag was Amrabat’s coach, but so far, no bid has come. Same goes for Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and PSG. They were all ‘lurking’, but nobody dared to make a bid. According to Gazzeta, Juventus is ready to try his luck with the player, who is valued around 24 million euros. ##NAJAVA_MECA_7417541##
