Church getting closer to divestment

Thiago Motta’s Juventus is taking more and more shape. Giuntoli is setting up a squad of the highest quality, so as to offer the new coach different resources for a star season. Currently, the interest è on the outside attackers. Adeyemi and Sancho are in the sights.

Before trying to close one or both deals, a major divestment is needed. Soulé appears to be the sacrifice. The Old Lady aims to take home no less than 30/35 million euros from the sale of the young Argentine talent (Leicester, West Ham and even Roma are interested).

With the money collected from the sale of Soulé, Giuntoli will goà to negotiate with Borussia Dortmund for Adeyemi, a player that Thiago Motta seems to like very much. In addition, there'è to convince Manchester United for Sancho. The player seems to have already given his okay to the Bianconeri club, now the right formula needs to be found with Giuntoli aiming at an onerous loan, perhaps with a right of redemption under certain conditions.

In the background is the not easy Chiesa issue. At the moment, the Azzurri national player has not yet decided his future but it seems clear how there is no longer room for him in the new Juventus, especially if Sancho should also arrive. The feeling è that Chiesa is, from a certain point of view, "forced" to change clubs. There would be not only Roma and Napoli on his trail.
