It's Silly Season...2012 Summer Transfer Thread (Speculation, Rumours, Etc.)

What was done with Ciro Immobile?

Rannochia is a good CB. Bringing him to Juve would be a nice move a la Cannavaro. Conte knows him and Bonucci very well from their time at Bari so I can see it happening.

I would take Borini over Destro in a heartbeat, Borini seemed very good at Roma and that's hard to do.

Verratti will stay at Pescara, there's no way we can be sure of his quality until he plays some games in Serie A. I don't think Napoli are serious about him either. They brought back Insigne and we can assume they've only inquired and probably wont match Juve's offer.

 

we dont need borini...what the hell? he's not a savior. We need to buy a good striker for our 5th option

our mid is stacked

we just need a CB and LB and we should call it done for this summer. Save the rest for next summer.

 

because Insigne and Verratti play the some position...but I think you are right he will go to Juve no matter what.

 

I don't know, Daei. This past season we had Vucinic, Matri, Quagliarella, Del Piero and Borriello and all got playing time.

This upcoming season, we have another competition to add to the mix. Right now, we have Vucinic, Giovinco, Matri, Quagliarella. We're going to need 6 strikers so getting a "good striker" for our 5th option is necessary, as you mentioned, but we could also do well with having a younger guy as our 6th to develop. He'll get minutes as well. Especially, someone like Borini who can be played as a RF or LF in a 4-3-3 as well.

 

We still need a top striker.

 

Pescara have taken Verratti off the market after he refused Napoli twice. He desperately wants a move to Juve.

 

We thought we had struck a deal and then Pescara demanded more. Not our fault this didn't go through.

 

I heard that juve paid 14.5 mil for Giovinco that cant be right can it + a 4 year contract.

 

With the co ownership payment and all I have no clue. 14mil for Gio sounds like a rip off to me

 

Well if what I heard is true I doubt any rumors with Giovinco + 20 mil for Cavani as false. Some other things ive heard is Roma might want Quags.

 

Quags to Roma unlikely. He just signed a new deal no way they would overpay for him. Actually Cavani to Juve sounds more realistic

 

I dont think so not with the deal he just signed(if its true) also the rumors about Cavani are getting ridiculous now ive seen 40 mil + Matri and Gio and 50 mil + the both of them.

 

Juve won`t pay that much for him.

I`m just saying with Quags/Matri/Vucinic/Gio Juve need another forward anyways why would they ship off quags when they need 5/6 strikers anyways. Conte is a fan of quags as well.

I'll give out a rumour i wanna see then

Gio plus cash for JoJo

 

That's a rumor I could get behind.

 

11m euros paid over three years (Parma already paid us 3m, so technically it's 8m). His current contract with Juve ends in 2014, I believe.

 

all these rumors are bs.....how do u guys believe any of it?? if a team has such plans they will never reveal it like that.

i think davey is right, we prob do need 6 strikers....so none of our existing ones will be sold, that will be foolish. I really like to land suarez, i dont see why napoli would give cavani to their rival juve...especially that they lost lavezzi. If they sell cavani, they'll give him to another league.

 

There was a rumor last week we bid 24m pounds on Torres. I also think our targets are RVP, Torres and Jovetic. I think Madrid and Napoli have refused to sell Cavani and Higuain. Either way they are players with 45m price tags, which is out of Juves budget which is 30-35m max.

Anyways we won't see much happen until July.

 

His first pick is Juventus:
