Another Frenchman at Juve's court. After the knockout in the Italian Super Cup, which ruthlessly exposed the weakness of the midfield, the Juventus club immediately ran for cover with a lightning operation that allowed general manager Giuseppe Marotta to bring home the Paris Saint Germain midfielder ( PSG) and the French national team, Blaise Matuidi, thirty years old.
Matuidì is already in Turin for medical examinations and tomorrow he will be presented to the Juventus public at the traditional party in Villar Perosa where the first team will face Primavera as every year.
The purchase of Matuidì suggests that Allegri will finally change formation, at least in the initial part of the season, abandoning the too unbalanced 4-2-3-1 in favor of a more logical 4-3-3 able to better protect the defense with a more solid midfield where the coach will be able to choose from time to time who to deploy between Pjanic, Marchisio, Khedira and Matuidi, without forgetting luxury reinforcements such as Sturaro and Bentancur.
Matuidi, the Raiola team, who already last year had expressed his intention to leave Paris to move to Juve, could already make his debut on Saturday in the first league game against Cagliari.
