Miralem Pjanić spent the best days of his career wearing the Juventus shirt. He won Serie A four times with the Torinesi, was in the best team of the Italian championship three times, and once in the ‘ideal 11’ of the Champions League. Then, in the summer of 2020, he moved to Barcelona for 60 million euros in a transfer that included the departure of Arthur Melo in the opposite direction.Since leaving for Catalonia, the career of the Bosnia and Herzegovina international has been going downhill. He didn’t play much in the red and blue jersey, and the loan to Besiktas didn’t bring any big changes either. However, he could soon return to the place of success.Miralem Pjanic wants to stay, and Xavi has liked his performances so far. A final decision regarding his future will be taken in August.— @marca pic.twitter.com/EF427DeEWp— Barça Universal (@BarcaUniversal) July 28, 2022 Although everything is still just an idea, Tuttosport writes that Juventus are considering the return of the 32-year-old midfielder if they fail to sign his former teammate at Roma, Leandro Paredes. The Argentinian’s contract with Paris Saint-Germain expires in one year, but the French champions are asking for 30 million euros for the transfer, which Juventus consider too high a figure. The negotiations still haven’t failed, however, they are not going in the direction the Torinesi would like.The Old Lady is in a hurry because of Paul Pogba’s injury, so in the coming days they could turn to another solution, and the mentioned newspaper from Turin writes that it could be Pjanic.The former Juventus midfielder met with well-known faces, especially coach Massimiliano Allegri, during the recent friendly match between Barcelona and Juventus in Dallas. Tuttosport writes that Pjanić is still in excellent relations with the strategist who trained him for three years, and with an excellent performance in the 2-2 draw, he once again drew attention to himself.##NAJAVA_MECA_6534653##However, he drew the attention of his current coach, Xavi, who praised him highly after the game, so the Spanish media are already writing that the role of the experienced midfielder in Barcelona could change and that he will have more playing time under the leadership of the former captain of the club. It is more certain, however, that due to the large number of new players and the necessary relief from the salary budget, the decision of president Joan Laporta to ease the playing staff will decide, and Miralem Pjanić is among the players on the transfer list.They believe in Tuttosport that Barcelona could also agree to a loan to Juventus.
