Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[masulum]

Leonardo Bonucci is about 37 years old. For this reason, Juventus will not be interested in renewing Leonardo Bonucci's contract. Leonardo Bonucci is definitely an experienced player. But Juventus will likely be interested in keeping the young talent in the squad. I would say right now Leonardo Bonucci is looking to go to a club in Saudi Arabia. He is old enough. He will not be able to maintain his fitness in a competitive league like Premier League or Serie A. Will be prone to injury. And so he should join a less competitive league like Saudi Arabia or Super Lig.

Even though he has only one season left on his contract, Bonucci seems quite loyal to Juventus. In fact, he could move from Juventus because New Castle and the club from the Saudi Arabia wanted to sign Bonucci. However, Bonucci chose to stay at Juventus until the end of his contract. If Bonucci doesn't get a contract extension from Juventus, he might choose to retire at the end of the season, who knows? Because loyalty to the club can make players choose to retire rather than move if they don't get a contract extension at this age.

He will not be able to maintain his fitness in a competitive league like Premier League or Serie A. Will be prone to injury. And so he should join a less competitive league like Saudi Arabia or Super Lig.

In the past season, Bonucci had very limited appearances for Juventus and Italy. At the end of season, he played matches for Italy in UEFA Nations League but did not have good performances. He wasted very last chances to convince Juventus but Juventus don't have good finance now and they will use Bonucci like they did with Chiellini in the past. We must be fair with Bonucci that he is not useless and still useful for Juventus if they use him sparsely and give him time to have enough rest and recovery time between matches.

Far in the past, we see AC Milan used Costacurta and Maldini till nearly 40s with this strategy and with limited options to buy new defenders, Juventus will not kick Bonucci out if he still wants to play for them.

It is an undeniable fact that Milan really need a striker right now. They can't move on with Giroud and Origi anymore as none of them would be reliable for bigger successes. Giroud has been better than Origi at least but still he is getting too old and he might not be consistent anymore. Origi is also even far away from his performance at Liverpool. Lukaku was on Milan's agenda but they must have given up their attempts for him after hearing that his priority is joining back Inter.

Giroud is too old and AC Milan will not bet that Giroud will play well in a next season. Origi has never been a good striker at world class level so they can not rely on Origi too. Lukaku loves Inter Milan and it's impossible to see him joining AC Milan after his drama with Ibrahimovic and Milanista in the past. In addition, Chelsea only want to sell Lukaku and get money. They no longer want to send Lukaku to any club in this summer with a loan transfer.

Bonucci is loyal to the Juventus club. However, Juventus have no interest in Bonucci after next season. This is because they will not want to waste money by keeping a 38/39-year-old player in the squad. But I don't think Bonucci will retire unless Juventus keep Bonucci in the squad. Bonucci is loyal but needs money. And clubs in Saudi Arabia pay huge wages to star players. And so I think he will sign a two-year contract with a club in Saudi Arabia next season. And then he will decide to retire. This is completely my personal opinion.

Juventus captain Leonardo Bonucci has 1 year remaining contract but there was no attempts from Juventus they will extended his contract and currently he was thinking some offers which come to him such as from Newcastle and Arabian clubs that it says some of Arabian clubs were interested to used his service but it wasn't mentioned which club who want him and i think it's time for Bonucci to thinking his future because apparently Juventus aren't willing to give him contract extension because Juventus feel his performance was decline and last season Bonucci only played 16 times at Serie A i think it's clear he didn't earn trust from Allegri and moved to other clubs would be good for him especially Arabian clubs because these teams possibly will offering huge money to him

With only one year remaining on his contract, Juventus should consider making a decision between extending his contract or not. Juventus are facing difficult times where they have fallen and then hit the ladder, finishing seventh in the standings is very bad and this season is a very difficult season. Seeing a situation like this I think it is very likely that Juventus will make a reshuffle with some improvements in their players, and it is unlikely that they will extend Leonardo Bonucci's contract because we all know that with his old age he will lose a lot of performance and that will interfere in every game. Saudi Arabia is a better place for the last part of his career than the Premier League.

Hojlund is a 20 year old striker; a young talisman. Coming to Manchester United to the premier league is good for him and his career because he gets a chance to develop his potentials and be a very massive striker long term. On the other hand, Manchester United is sendng Greenwood onloan to Atalanta to recover and rediscover his form.

It is a good deal for Manchester United; who gets a young striker cheaply too. Will Hojlund be effective? Will MUFC need another striker in the Mould of Harry Kane?
Time will tell.

This is not only about time, but also about an opportunity that must be taken advantage of, because it is time for Manchester United to have a young player in the striker position because next season Manchester United will return to compete in the UCL apart from the Premier League. And Atalanta also needs to keep himself strong in Serie A next season so that Atalanta can provide more strong competition for rivals so that they can finish in a better order and also be able to win the Europa League next season.

My friend, Bonucci is at a career crossroads. I disagree. Although his Serie A playtime has reduced significantly (down to 16 games last season) I don't think it's a performance decline. Allegri's approach and team dynamic may be involved. Have you considered Allegri's penchant for team reshuffles? You think Arabian clubs may make him money. My query: Will money trump competition? He is Juventus' captain - will he simply relinquish that honor? Newcastle might be smart. A legend like him could strengthen their backline and mentor younger players. At this point in his career, could he handle the Premier League's fast pace?

The veteran defender has been linked with MLS and Olympique Marseille this summer, but he has stated that he is committed to Juventus for next season. He's more interested to compete for the scudetto with the old lady's next season, so we'll see how things play out. Leonardo Bonucci has won fundamental trophies with Juventus and is regarded as one of the club's toughest defenders. He's transforming into a bit older, and his performance is continuously deteriorating, making him prone to injuries. I guessed next season might be his last, because Massimiliano Allegri wants new talents in the club that would help strengthen their performance.

After agreeing to not participate in the competition Europa, then the one who will replace Juventus position maybe it is Fiorentina, because in the previous standings Serie A they position right under Juventus. But currently Fiorentina haven't made any new signings player for next season, although there are many loan players who have returned to fiorentina, but I think they should at least sign some players again.

Juventus continues to experience setbacks after case after case they receive now the sanction not to appear in Europe next season is a frightening image. Because in terms of performance it means that they will experience big losses so they will sell several players and try to choose players with cheaper rates.
Fiorentina is still far from expectations, but with what happened to Juventus, of course, Fiorentina has 1 gap that they must be able to maximize properly.

I am not sure whether Juventus Turin has other options to raise funds since they are a publicly listed company, but the future doesn't look bright for them if they also have to fear sanctions or penalties from the UEFA as once the investigation process gets start against them again, it is highly likely that they get a penalty again since the highest court has already made a ruling against them. I don't see a reasonable chance for them to defend themselves against any allegations brought forward by the UEFA. Refuting accusations is no options anymore, it is probably only about admitting everything and negotiating with the UEFA then.

Fiorentina intends to let amrabat leave from the club. There are so many news talked about this recently. It's likely that if amrabat gonna move from fiorentina to the manchester united. It seems like that fiorentina gonna be taken to replace juventus's position in the conference league soon.

https://strettynews.com/2023/07/08/fiorentina-make-sofyan-amrabat-decision/

Even skynews has been also reporting that if MU is now seeking amrabat at new defender for the club. The talks is still ongoing but i saw that if fiorentina has a requirement for united before amrabat will go to the united.
United itself is still struggling with its financial. United doesn't have a lot of budget to buy the new player. MU needs to sell free/tominay first before the club will able to sign amrabat from fiorentina.

I hope that MU will able to secure him as soon as possible.

Maybe you mean Europa Conference League, yeah it is the 3rd competition and the level is under UEFA Europa League, Fiorentina are not worried because their competitors are still at the same level I'm sure they can compete. We know that almost all clubs in Serie A are having financial problems even top clubs like Inter, Juventus and others are not spared from the same problem so there's no need to be surprised if their activity in the transfer window is very low, instead of bringing in new players they prefer to release several players for the club needs during the season.

Fiorentina can get additional income through the Europa Conference League if able to reach round of 16 or even to the finals like last season, Fiorentina still uses the same squad as in the last final so new players are not really needed. This season Fiorentina's income in the transfer window is €8.7 million and without spending.

I am not entirely sure if he would be though, he is just way too old at this point and he is not as famous as these other players and not talented enough for those clubs not to be finding anyone else. Arabian clubs could find someone who is more talented, and probably at least as famous as him as well. The reason why they are paying so much money for these famous players is to get the league to be watched more and I believe that he would not help them on that front.

To be fair he could still find some place in some lower level Italian club though, like whoever is the new promoted club, he could still play there if he wants to, or basically he could simply retire, he made millions of euros, more than 99% of the population would make, he can retire very easily now.

[xzone]

For now Milan have completed Loftus-Cheek and Pulisic transfers. By the way Landon Donovan criticized Pulisic about not choosing the MLS instead. However I don't think it would have been a sensible move for him. Because Pulisic is still 24 years old and he can play European football for long years instead. He is a decent player as well so there is no meaning in going to the MLS.

Agree, it makes sense to go to MLS teams just to make money or live somewhere else. I think it is no different than Arabian teams. You can go to these teams to earn money in the last years of your career, but it wouldn't make much sense to be here at a young age. Prevents you from progressing in your career

I agree with you on this. I also think that young football players should continue to play football in the top leagues to showcase their talents. However, it is definitely a better option for them to go to Arab teams or MLS when they get older to make more money and play safe football in a less competitive league.

Ibrahimovic also left football at the end of last season. He didn't play as well as Origi or Giroud recently, but he was in the squad and was an effective football player. Italian teams really have good success with older players. However, they may encounter such problems from time to time.

Bonucci is loyal to the Juventus club. However, Juventus have no interest in Bonucci after next season. This is because they will not want to waste money by keeping a 38/39-year-old player in the squad. But I don't think Bonucci will retire unless Juventus keep Bonucci in the squad. Bonucci is loyal but needs money. And clubs in Saudi Arabia pay huge wages to star players. And so I think he will sign a two-year contract with a club in Saudi Arabia next season. And then he will decide to retire. This is completely my personal opinion.

They also write that Bonucci can continue his career with Pirlo in Sampdoria. This is a really great defender who has done a lot for Juventus, but in the last season it was already clear that injuries do not spare him and it is right that Alegre focuses on young players. And Bonucci's salary, which is about 12 million euros, also plays an important role in this decision.

Even though he has only one season left on his contract, Bonucci seems quite loyal to Juventus. In fact, he could move from Juventus because New Castle and the club from the Saudi Arabia wanted to sign Bonucci. However, Bonucci chose to stay at Juventus until the end of his contract. If Bonucci doesn't get a contract extension from Juventus, he might choose to retire at the end of the season, who knows? Because loyalty to the club can make players choose to retire rather than move if they don't get a contract extension at this age.

There are players who don't follow the money, like Buffon recently refused to go to Saudi Arabia. It seems that money is not the issue for such players, Bonucci really spent a lot of time at Juventus and probably wants to stay here as long as possible.

It is just unbelievable that Juventus have been kicked out of Europe. It is due to problems related to financial fair-play. I thought it would have been limited to only the 10-points punishment in the league. But the problems have got bigger for them by this news. However they were going to join the Europa Conference League so this isn't a huge loss for Juventus I think. But if that happened for the Champions League spot then it would have been a big hit to them of course.

Financial fair-play is clearly detrimental to Juventus in the next season because they will not play in the Champions League due to the mistakes they made and fortunately Juventus do not get much heavier sanctions because the Italian football federation only gives a 10 point deduction sanction. If Juventus do not receive a point deduction sanction then it is possible to finish in third or fourth place then Juventus will automatically play in the Champions League next season.

Juventus will start off with a clean slate from now on. Allegri is still here though but maybe things might get better in time. In the end they have a really good history with Allegri hence there is always a chance to do better than this with him.

Next season will be the starting point for Juventus to start again and I believe Allegri will try to do better with the combination of new players they have acquired in the transfer market. Juventus has a long history in Serie A and they are one of the best clubs ever, so a slight setback is the way to regain dominance in the League.

[hahay]

I got rumors about Bonucci being the target of a player who should be brought in to Sampdoria, after Sampdoria appointed Pirlo as Sampdoria's head coach. In these rumors, that Pirlo wants to bring in Bonucci. But yes, i personally not sure that Bonucci will be able to accept the offer because after all, Sampdoria next season will also only play in Serie B because they were relegated last season. But apart from these factors, if i consider Bonucci's old age, then at least Bonucci still deserves to play in Serie B with Sampdoria. But indeed, if Bonucci chooses to stay at Juventus for one more season, then perhaps it will be his last at Juventus. Due to the fact, Bonucci's remaining contract at Juventus only has one more season left. Thus, it might be better if Bonucci chooses to retire when his contract expires at Juventus at the end of next season.

Probably not many of the younger generation know about Bonucci now. Yes, he's a star of the old days, but it's hard to talk about his ability now. I remember accidentally seeing Frank Ribery in one of the games. It was a shock for me. The times of these players are over. Now there are new stars who have to play.

Juventus is increasingly losing their place in Serie A as the team with the most Serie A trophy winners. Massimiliano Allegri's troops are getting further away from the chance to lift the trophy next season. In fact, several new names such as Paul Pogba, Angel Di Maria, etc. who enter the Juventus squad last season have not been able to help restore Juventus' identity in Serie A, especially
