Paolo Di Canio brings a new striker to Juventus

Interviewed by Tuttosport, Paolo Di Canio è also dwelt on Juventus’ offensive department: "It can&#39t exist that Juve is without an alternative to Dusan Vlahovic. He hurt Milik in June, but then there was time to intervene. Juve had more strikers last year than they had the Champions League: you have to have solutions to make up for it".

"In January è it is difficult to find an opportunity&39;on the market, good strikers don&39;t give them to you. Forò if you were to ask me for a functional profile for Juve for January, I would say this: I would borrow Zirkzee from Manchester United. Anyway lì they have been making crazy choices for a few years and nothing works, not even Zirkzee. For the Premier è a bit’ too slow: lì they attack you right away and whistle 30% fewer fouls, in Italy we saw instead what an impact the player had right in Bologna".

"Then maybe he will prove me wrong by scoring goals, forò if they were to give him on loan: they already have; Hojlund, then there'è Rashford who is playing in that position. He would be the perfect profile, also because it would allow Motta to have a striker with different characteristics from Vlahovic. But I would start the negotiation now: a loan with maybe the possibility of redeeming him: Zirkzee is not è a devastating scorer, he is not è a 25-goal scorer, but he makes others play well" concluded Di Canio.
