Fucking funny that, Juve get players for free from Sassuolo.
Again with this nonsense. I remember very clear when Carnevale said Locatelli and Berardi could go, but Raspardori is not for sale. And it's make sense, Raspardori needs another year at a mid-level club where he could make the next step. Exactly like Barella, Chiesa or Locatelli before him.
But I will be very dissapointed if Inter will not try hard to get him next year, with or without Lautaro's sale.

Inter can try, but what Juve wants, Juve gets.

Pedulla is saying that Inter tried to go for Raspadori, but Sasuollo wont sell. After Correa, Scamacca could come to be a vice Dzeko.
Maybe if Marotta tells them that he's still working for Jube?

I haven’t seen enough of Belotti, but surely we need someone like him more than a second-striker. Lautaro, Sanchez, Sensi and Hakan can all play behind the striker.

I have the feeling that we are going safety First regarding Sanchez and will sign Belotti and Correa.

can they do it well though? Lautaro is the only guarantee in that 2 attacker formation. I only watched Sensi against Genoa but he was not convincing. I think Çalhanoğlu is better off in midfield. With Sanchez the problem is fitness more so than anything and he’s only getting older.

Aren't Belotti and Correa totally different types of players? How come they are alternatives to one other?
Yes. Belotti is not an alternative to Correa. He's a plan B. This market is not full of same type of players so we need to explore different types of avenues.

I wouldn't go over 30m€ for Correa so if Lotito won't budge, then I'd go different route. That's why it's good to have that different route ready if we face the scenario where Lotito won't budge.

Belotti at least has the numbers compared to Correa, from multiple seasons. It would be Dzeko and Belotti for the target position next to Lautaro.

€15m is a ridiculously good deal for a striker that has over 100 goals in his career and is only 27. Adding another captain and one that might be eager to prove himself at a big club isn’t the worst idea I’ve ever heard either.

I just looked up some Belotti's compilations from that season and it's sad that he never managed to develop from that.

He was a fucking monster, strong, aggressive, fairly skillful, could score with both feet and his bicycle kick goals were dayum. Then somehow he lost most of his scoring instincts.

For that price, I am not against Belotti. Brings depth, brings a lot of tenacity and determination. And his stats will definitely be better when surrounded by better teammates and a coach more intent on playing football.

Slow and steady, slow and steady. There is no way we get the new striker till Friday, let's hope we will come within the time the market is open 🤣

Tbh I like the idea of Belotti, I always have a soft spot for guys fighting and giving their all on the pitch.

If we really signed him, I wouldn't mind getting Kean / Jovic as a cheap option, too. If Lotito is too stubborn and we are too cheap, let's move on from this saga. Maybe on the last day they will still lower their asking price and for us he would be like the cherry on top and not a desperate needed addition. That way we would have a way better position in dealing / lowering the asking price and we would be well set for a 3-5-2 or a 3-4-2-1.

If we can somehow land Belotti and Insigne, I'd be very pleased. It would be our best attacking line since ages and provide a lot of flexibility as well.

Insigne is a concern mentally but he'd probably want to win a Scudetto and do well in Europe.
Belotti needs a place to reinvent himself, he should have been one of the top names in football but lagged too much developing a gobba carrying Torino to decency.
