EXCLUSIVE Juventus don't want Ibrahimovic!
This is not to say that the two sides are negotiating, despite the fact that the Swede is looking around, trying to choose which challenge to embark on to close his career.
The club has, essentially, three problems with Ibra: firstly, his 10 million salary is way, way too much, almost double the current salary cap at the J Stadium. Ibra is also seen as too old for a team that has focussed a lot on youth, on turnover. And thirdly, they suspect that Ibra wouldn't work well with a team that already has a well-established system in place. And he can be a bit of nuisance, too... It comes as no surprise that the fans are also being considered, here: many haven't forgiven his "betrayal" back in 2006, when he left a sinking Juventus (Calciopoli) to join hated rivals Inter Milan.
Johann Elkann's comments from 2013 sum up Juventus' stance better: "We have a strong collective in place, that's the beauty, the team plays as a unit and doesn't need superstars".
Well, not the wrong ones, anyway.
