Thiago Motta decided to make big changes in Juventus, and one of the news concerns the goalkeeper position. The club from Turin presented this afternoon Michele Di Gregorio, the second newcomer in the summer transfer window, who should have the status of the first goalkeeper of the Old Lady next season.The Italian custodian, officially the best in Serie A last season, arrived at Juventus from Monza. At first, he was paid 4,500,000 euros on loan, after which the Turin club will be able to buy him for an additional 13,500,000 euros. In that case, Di Gregorio will initial the contract until the summer of 2029, and Monza will have the opportunity to earn another 2,000,000 euros through bonuses.##EDITORS_CHOICE##Di Gregorio is a child of Inter Milan, however, he never made his debut for the Nerazzurri senior team. Instead, he collected minutes on loan in Renate, Novara, Pordenone and finally Monza, which after two years, in the summer of 2022, bought him out from the Milan giants for 4,500,000 euros. In four years, Di Gregorio defended the goal of Monza in 144 games, and the performances in the last season, in addition to the award of the best goalkeeper of the Italian championship, brought him a transfer of his career.The Italian media assures that the arrival of Di Gregorio also means the end for Wojciech Szczęsny at Juventus. At the Allianz Stadium, they believe that his time at the club is over and they are looking for a way to get rid of the Polish goalkeeper and his salary of 6,500,000 euros, one of the highest in the team. At one point, Al Nassr was offered as a solution, but there has been no progress for more than two weeks.Ufficiale | Michele Di Gregorio è un nuovo giocatore della Juventus! ⚪️⚫️I dettagli dell’accordo ✍🏻⤵️— JuventusFC (@juventusfc) July 5, 2024 Szczęsny, who has a contract with Juventus, found the club’s decision difficult.”Loyalty is very, very important to me. So if I sign a contract for two years, that means I know exactly what I want to do for the next two years. If I sign for four years, I know what I want to do for four years… The same goes and in ten years. I want to honor the terms of the contract,” Szczesny said a few days ago, reports Tuttosport.However, it seems that the Pole, who arrived at the club in 2017 from Arsenal, will not hold back and cause problems for Juventus.”But if the club that gave you so much needs to terminate the contract and needs your help, you should help them,” the 34-year-old goalkeeper added.Before signing Di Gregorio, Juventus brought Douglas Luiz from Aston Villa for 51,500,000 euros, but this should be just the beginning. Especially when it comes to changes in the midfield, since in addition to Luiz, the arrivals of Khéphren Thuram from Nice and Teun Koopmeiners from Atalanta are also expected.##NAJAVA_MECA_8197977##
