Juve: chance for Mandzukic. Milan: Essien to Turkey?
As reported earlier today, Juventus are ready to sell one between 21 year old Paul Pogba and 27 year old Arturo Vidal, both midfielder, to be able to sign Real Madrid 26 year old winger Angel Di Maria and 21 year old striker Alvaro Morata; but, regarding their offensive line, the bianconeri could also have a new chance for Bayern Munich 27 year old Mario Mandzukic: as outlined by calciomercato.com, in fact, Die Roten’s coach Pep Guardiola has excluded the Croatia international from tomorrow’s DFB-Pokal’s final and has wished him good luck with his new club. The Serie A champions’ priority for the next transfer window is the signing of a new wingback, and, as reported yesterday by the Bosnian medias, are about to carry out the negotiation for Lazio 28 year old Senad Lulic: the Piedmont’s club has denied such news, but probably Juve are just evaluating if to start to talk with the biancocelesti or swoop on 27 year old Antonio Candreva, actually in co-ownership between the Roman’s club itself and Udinese. The bianconeri could also have to replace their coach Antonio Conte, and, as well as AC Milan, are thinking about Fiorentina 39 year old Vincenzo Montella; as reported by Ansa, the viola’s president Mario Cognigni has assured that his club has no intention to let its coach leave. Meanwhile, the rossoneri are also facing other clubs’ interest for some of their players, and, according to Rai Sport, Besiktas are ready to swoop on 31 year old midfielder Michael Essien.
