Summer 26 Transfer Window - hopes, speculation, rumours etc.

[frank black]

If Juve think they can get him for Peanuts and pay him less per year, when they are not in the champions league. Then I’ve got to question what the hell is going on? Are we that desperate to reduce the wage bill and the quality of our team?

Surely this can’t be true

Is big Emi off then?

They want him for free? Hahaha.

Panic over (for now).

Feels like the window to sell Emi was last summer. I don’t see how the fee he’d command (albeit surely more than the zero Juventus want to pay) would be more than the value he is to us, now even given he’s a high earner.

[Dogtanian]

He’s got all summer to find a new club, is Juventus such a draw that he’ll take the first offer and jump at being paid less?

Not sure what the tax situation is in Italy and whether that makes anything up.

But he’s not going unless we get the fee we want.
