As the UCL final in Cardiff is now over, Juventus have fully shifted their focus on the transfer market as they want to improve their team. They have virtually closed a deal for Sampdoria's Schick as they have been working hard.

According to Corriere dello Sport's Guido D'Ubaldo (Via Tuttoasroma.it), Juventus offered Roma 16 million euros for Sassuolo midfielder Lorenzo Pellegrini. The Italian youngster returned to Roma instead as they had an option to buy him back set at 10 million euros.
