Juve, coup on Vlahovic. Inter on Gosens. Milan risks Kessiè

The hit of the year. There Juventus is getting closer to buying Dusan Vlahovic from Fiorentina, so much so that the deal can be considered practically concluded: the Viola will go 65 million plus 10 bonus, for a grand total of 75, while the player will sign a five-year 7 per season. The lightning operation conducted by Cherubini, even if the feeling is that the parties had already been in contact since the summer. It was no coincidence that Vlahovic had dodged all the English sirens, including the 80 million one from Arsenal, demonstrating an agreement in place with the Lady, very good and timely in getting there first, or at least doing it convincingly.

A Commisso all that remained was to take note of his will, iron like few others: either you give him to Juve or he stays here until June, the concept expressed by his agents, with the inevitable depreciation given by the contract expiring in 2023. But woe to think that the Viola president comes out with broken bones, given that 75 million euros for a player close to freeing himself up to zero is really a good amount. Of course, the Italian team loses its striker par excellence, Allegri instead gains him and with him all of Juve.

The goal problem, almost chronic in a championship that saw the Lady score only 34 in 23 days, had to be resolved drastically and the club wasted no time. It arrives in Turin the top scorer of the tournament (together with Immobile) who alone has made 17, exactly half of the entire black and white squad, but above all a boy of only 22 (he will make them this Friday) who has all the stigmata of the champion. The club is betting strongly, indeed very strongly on him, because such an investment weighs heavily, especially these days.

At the moment the will to strengthen the squad and attempt the assault on the Champions League with more conviction prevails, then in the summer choices will be made that will amortize the amount spent. The first will be the failure to redeem Morata, who indeed will pack his bags from now on destination Barcelona, the heavier one, however, is likely to be the renunciation of Dybala, who will be left free to settle elsewhere, including Inter, unless he decides to accept the figures proposed by the club, much lower than his requests. Then one cannot be excluded sale of De Ligt, given that Raiola has repeatedly said that for the Dutchman he has come to face new challenges: in this sense, keep an eye on the position of Romagnoli, his contract with Milan is about to expire and far from renewal.

Never bianconeri they don't want to stop at Vlahovic, since they are in negotiation with Cagliari for Nandez, even if there is currently distance on the formula. Cherubini proposes a loan with the right to buy, Capozucca demands the obligation set at 15 million: he will continue to talk about it in the next few hours. Juve, therefore, takes the throne of queen of the winter market and it is very difficult, almost impossible, that someone can steal it from them, even if in any case the others will not stand still.

THEInter, for example, is very close to closing the purchase of Robin Gosens from Atalanta: even here, if there are no completely unexpected twists, we can consider the deal in the pipeline. The meeting between the Nerazzurri managers went well, especially since the German, who has been in the pits since 29 September with a muscle problem but is close to returning at the end of February, is happy to move to Milan. The exterior will come with the formula of loan with right to buy set at 30 million, a sort of gentleman agreement to check his physical conditions: if everything is in order, his confirmation will become automatic.

Inzaghi will thus have an important alternative to Perisic, both for the current season and for the next, when the Croatian, with his contract expiring, will almost certainly go to end your career elsewhere. In the meantime it's all done for the loan Sensi to Sampdoria (medical visits today), while it could do the Caicedo reverse path, leaving Genoa and very welcome to Inzaghi as deputy Dzeko.

Juve and Inter make barrels, while the Milan, at least for now, remains on the sidelines. Yesterday he arrived in town Marko Lazevic, an 18-year-old striker taken for 3 million by Red Star, but the real fat isn't there yet and maybe there never will be. Maldini knows who he is the defense is the department most in difficulty, in light of the injuries of Kjaer (season over) and Tomori (he should be back in mid-February), but Elliot's budget is tight and the primary objectives (Lille's Botman above all) cost too much. The dt is therefore examining the youth market and the new name is that of Thiaw, 21-year-old German from Schalke 04, capable of covering various roles in defense and with an affordable cost of 5 million.

The bad news, however, comes from Spain, where the transfer in June (therefore on a free transfer) of Kessie in Barcelona: the Ivorian, currently playing in the African Cup of Nations, would sign a five-year deal worth 8 million per season plus bonuses. The barrels of Juventus and Inter therefore do not seem to move Gazidis, chosen by the owners, moreover, to re-propose the Arsenal model, made up of beautiful football, healthy balance sheets and discrete capital gains, but with qualification in the Champions League as the only real goal to achieve.
