Chelsea and Man City on red alert as Juve reportedly ‘planning to sell’ Bonucci

Leonardo Bonucci is one of the most wanted footballers in the world. Juventus are of course not open the sell but the Italian has never hidden his appreciation for both Pep Guardiola and Antonio Conte two of the biggest admirers of the Juventus star.

The Italian centre-back is in the middle of a storm as during the last couple of days two reports of La Stampa have claimed that Bonucci had a dressing room bust-up with two of his teammates during the half time of the Champions League final.

​Yesterday, the Turin-based paper (which is very close to the Agnelli family) reported that Bonucci and Barzagli had had an argument with the Chelsea and Man City target who reportedly told Allegri to replace his teammate with Cuadrado. Barzagli reportedly hit back at criticisms telling Bonucci that he should have blocked Cristiano Ronaldo’s shot which led to Real Madrid’s opener.

​Today, La Stampa claims Bonucci had also had a dressing room bust up with Paulo Dybala, still during the half time of the Champions League final. Bonucci had reportedly hit at Dybala for not playing hard after being booked by the referee.

​Italian website Dagospia, which usually provides some reliable behind the scenes look at the world of politic claims La Stampa is trying to discredit Bonucci so that Juventus can sell him without too many problems. Allegations of La Stampa are of course not being confirmed but it is still an interesting point of view given that it is pretty unusual to read two successive news regarding a dressing room bust up, especially during the half time of a Champions League final.
