Juventus-Thiago Motta, there is still distance between the parties
Giuntoli called upon to make an extra effort?
The Bianconeri people, after the abrupt farewell to Allegri, anxiously await the arrival of the new coach. All roads lead to Thiago Motta, author of a spectacular season with Bologna. Currently on vacation, the now former coach of the Felsinei seems now ready to sign the contract that will bind him to Juventus.
However, there would still be a distance between the demands of the coach's entourage and what Giuntoli, the Bianconeri club’s market man, proposed. The distance is rumored to be about 1.5 million net, which, over three years (how long Thiago Motta’s contract is supposed to last), is 4.5 million euros (double that if you reason on gross).
Whoever manages Thiago Motta would ask for five million euros per season, Giuntoli would be firm on 3.5 million. In short, an effort will be needed, probably on the part of the top Bianconeri manager to arrive, as soon as possible, at the classic white smoke.
Also because, as soon as Thiago Motta is made official, Giuntoli will have to put a lot of effort into the player market, both inbound but, above all, outbound. There are so many elements of the current roster that seem destined to pack their bags. In addition, there'è to find a solution to the "Rabiot" case, eager to define his future before the start of the European Football Championship in Germany.
