Exclusive interview with Mirko Di Natale: ‘Juve ready to make an offer for SMS’

Max Statman continues to bring you all the latest Juventus updates and transfer news. This time, we’ve contacted our good freind and Juventus correspondent for Tuttojuve, Mirko Di Natale. Here is all Mirko informed us about:

Any developments on Rudiger situation? 

“There is still nothing concrete between Juventus and Rudiger. Many clubs like the player, including Juventus, but he has not yet decided his future. He would like a large salary, as well as a signing bonus. This is making Juventus reflect and are also looking at other defenders”.

Is Pogba’s salary affordable for Juventus? 

“It will be difficult to see Pogba at Juve again, even if it is the fans’ dream. To date, Juve management can hardly guarantee such a high salary, unless things change tomorrow. He earns 15 million in Manchester, I don’t think the salary will be lowered. PSG is one of the few teams in Europe that can afford Pogba”.

Is Milinkovic Savic’s transfer fee affordable for the Bianconeri: 

“Milinkovic-Savic’s agent, Kezman, told me that the player is ready for new adventures very soon. He told me, clearly, that Sergej can leave Lazio this summer. President Lotito, who has always said no to his sale, could convince himself with an offer of 70/80 million. For Juve, the signing of Milinkovic-Savic is affordable. The club prefers players with a high value, but with a low salary. Juve will make an offer, already in 2018 and in 2019 they tried to buy him. Milinkovic-Savic would agree to change team, but beware of English clubs”.

Latest on Zaniolo and Raspadori. Who is more likely to arrive? 

“Juve could decide to buy both players. Zaniolo and Raspadori are two players who like them very much, Juve would like to rebuild a ‘Made in Italy’ with two of the most interesting young players. With Zaniolo’s agent there have already been two meetings in last two months, with Raspadori there have already been contacts with Sassuolo”.

How much do Atletico want for Morata and what will Juve offer? 

“Atletico would like to collect all 35 million, but no club interested in Morata can pay that amount. According to my information, Simeone is no longer interested in having Morata and is very much in favor of his sale. The player is fine with Juve, has Allegri’s trust and now plays continuously. His agent Juanma Lopez is working towards a solution, Juve can offer 15/20 million. Let’s see what will happen”.

Will Kean be at Juventus next summer? 

“There are many rumors related to Kean and his possible farewell. There is no certain information, but Juve are not satisfied with his performance. The management expected more, the amount for the redemption is really high. Moise he’s doing well, he’s doing well, he’s back more mature than three years ago. Let’s see what happens”.

We thank Mirko for his time in keeping us updated with Juventus mercato.
