Juventus sinks strike in midfield: there is agreement with Barcelona
The friendly between Barcelona and Juventus was skipped after the blaugrana’s viral gastroenteritis struck in recent days, but market negotiations between the two clubs continue expeditiously, even in the United States. According to rumors, the Bianconeri are making major strides for the transfer of Frank Kessie to Turin, so much so that optimism is leaking from Bianconeri sources.
Juventus, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, has already reached an agreement in principle with Barcelona for a loan with a right of redemption that will turn into an obligation when certain team and personal conditions are met. The deal is expected to cost a total of around 15 million euros.
The Bianconeri will have to sell in the coming days Zakaria and McKennie, who have several suitors in England, Germany and Turkey. Kessie is also being followed by Saudi and Premier clubs, and according to the latest rumors last Europa League winner Sevilla is also on his trail.
Paul Pogba is also an unknown. On his future Allegri put it this way, “I don’t think I can use him in the next two tests against Milan and Real Madrid. He has practically never worked with us, he is progressing well but we need caution because the same thing happened last year: everything seemed to be okay and then he would stop. When I see him running I think he is better, however from here to playing there is a long way. We will have to wait at least a month to see if he can be available to the team.”
