Party for everyone except the transfer market. In fact, with summer just around the corner, insiders don't really have the time to take a break, especially as certain situations need to be resolved as soon as possible. It is the case of Juve, grappling with the Conte case. The Juventus coach is about to win his second consecutive Scudetto, after which he will sit around a table with Agnelli, Marotta and Paratici to define its future. Who, barring unforeseen jolts at the moment, will be a Juventus player, provided however that some of his economic and technical requests are met.
Strengthened by the proposals received from abroad (above all from Chelsea), Conte wants a contract extension with a substantial increase. The current one foresees 3 million net until 2015, he would like to reach 5 (the same offered by Abramovich) until 2016. If so, Conte will consolidate his primacy among Italian coaches, as well as his role in the black and white club. But it's not just about the money. The coach's requests also affect the football aspect, at all latitudes. Because Conte doesn't just want the famous top player, who will arrive anyway. According to him, the squad, after two years of Italian domination, needs to be substantially renewed, or else it risks being forgotten again. Many players have given a lot, perhaps everything, and starting a new season without changes could be fatal. Agnelli will listen, then decide what to do. But the feeling is that if the Juve – Conte pairing were to dissolve it will be by decision of the coach, not of the club.
Scenario that, potentially, could also happen in Milan, even if for different reasons. Massimiliano Allegri is fed up with Berlusconi's criticism, those close to him describe him as impatient and tired. However, the thing is mutual, because even the Rossoneri president can't stand it anymore. We are moving towards an inevitable divorce, despite Galliani's attempts at mediation, who has always been against the head shots of his boss. But at Milan it's not time for the transfer market yet. First there is a Champions League to conquer, an essential objective for a high-level future supported by a balanced budget. Only then will it be possible to plan for next season, most likely with a new coach.
Sul front Inter instead the works have already begun. The championship now has little to say, and any participation in the Europa League will, if anything, shift the proportions of the squad, not the structure. Once Moratti's trust has been won, Stramaccioni wants a young and dynamic team, with which to try to restart after a tragic year. Some purchases have already been made, above all Icardi and Campagnaro, who could become two pillars of the new Nerazzurri course. But the project needs money, and that must be found. Massimo Moratti is playing the most important game on the Kazakh market, where he hopes to find partners (and money) for a better future. Will he succeed? We will know soon, certainly before the summer. Then we'll dive into the crazy world of the transfer market.
