Juventus is trying to sell players to Manchester clubs to improve their team.
Fagioli and Luiz are seen as players who can be sold to raise funds. Juventus hopes to get around €20-25 million for Fagioli. Luiz, who was bought for €50 million, will need a good offer or a player swap to leave.
Luiz has not performed well and is currently injured, making his sale more complicated. Juventus needs to recover money to buy new players, like defenders Antonio Silva or Milan Skriniar.
Juventus is also uncertain about Arkadiusz Milik’s health. His recovery from surgery will affect whether they look for another striker to support Dusan Vlahovic. Giuntoli’s plans depend on Milik’s fitness in December.
Joshua Zirkzee, who is now at Manchester United, is a player that Thiago Motta likes. However, the transfer is complicated because United does not want to lose young talent.
Giuntoli has been visiting Manchester and Birmingham, showing that Juventus is trying hard to change their team while dealing with money issues.
Juventus’ plan to sell Fagioli and Luiz to Premier League clubs seems smart, but fans in Manchester might be cautious. For Manchester United fans, the idea of bringing in Douglas Luiz is concerning. He has not played well at Juventus, and investing in him could be risky. United already has strong midfield players like Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes.
Fagioli could be an interesting option for Manchester City. However, City fans might wonder if spending €25 million on a less experienced player is wise. Guardiola’s system is complex, and Fagioli would need time to adjust, which might not be possible during a title race.
Juventus’ asking price for Luiz seems high, given his recent performances and injury issues. This situation might show Juventus is desperate to sell players to fund new transfers instead of providing real value to Premier League clubs.
This report shows how Serie A and the Premier League are becoming more financially connected. Whether Manchester clubs will consider these offers will depend on their needs in the January transfer window.
