The midfield is one of the departments in which the Juventus intends to intervene more on the market. And in addition to Locatelli, who represents the first choice (but who is much courted abroad), in the last few hours the Bianconeri have returned to an old ball already followed in the past: Corentin Tolisso. The French player, class 94, will expire in a year and is leaving Bayern Munich. The bianconeri, who had already tried to take him both in 2017 (when he moved from Lyon to Bavaria) and last year, are now trying again – there has already been some contact – with Allegri’s approval.
Tolisso, called up by Deschamps for Euro 2020 (he should lose the ballot with Rabiot for a starting place against Germany), in the 20/21 season with Bayern he collected 24 appearances and 3 goals, plus another 4 appearances with France: he is a flexible midfielder, who in recent years has not always been able to express his potential due to some injuries. Juve have put him on their list and now he can return to the office.
Ronaldo’s future
But the day was also marked by words of Cristiano Ronaldo about his future. For its part, the Juventus he will be confronted in the coming weeks with the Portuguese agent, Jorge Mendes, to try to define the situation. The possibility of Ronaldo leaving is closely linked to the possibility that another team is willing to pay his high salary if he does not lower the demands.
Interested watching teams for now are Manchester United and PSG, but every negotiation, as Ronaldo himself indirectly confirmed, is currently blocked.
