Juventus, Giovanni Manna speaks out on the January market

Jiovanni Manna speaks out on Juventus’ market

Speaking at an awards ceremony that involved him directly, having received the award of "Piedmontese Manager of the Year" from the regional USSI, Giovanni Manna answered questions from reporters who tried to extrapolate some news from him about the now upcoming winter market.

"We’re going ahead like this, we’re happy with the players currently on the roster,” said the HCL sporting director.

Of course, we’ll evaluate any opportunities, but without making any flights of fancy: let’s just say we’ll be ready. Midfield reinforcements? the roster was structured to also have the elements that we do not have available now, but we are managing to fill the absences very well".

Manna also denied possible returns from loans: "When a player starts a path in one place he must also finish it thereì – he explained -. It is even more valid; since it is an important path such as those of Soulé, Barrenechea, or other guys currently on loan. It è not necessary to interrupt what good they are doing and we do not want to do that".

Juventus, after fifteen days of the championship, è in second place, at -2 from Inter currently in the lead but è above all, firmly in the Champions League zone, whose participation è fundamental for the company plans after a year, this one, spent without playing in Europe. The success obtained against Napoli è among other things, the tenth consecutive useful result for the team coached by Massimiliano Allegri, a positive series even better than that of the Nerazzurri (currently at nine consecutive games without a knockout in the league).
