Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[rendravolt]

Thiago Motta has changed his mind and included Federico Chiesa in his plans for next season. I think this is very encouraging news for La Vechia Signora fans because there were rumors that Juventus wanted to sell Federico Chiesa. Now the rumors have ended and Thiago Motta wants to strengthen his squad's performance to welcome Serie A.

Then there was news from Chelsea responding to Lukaku's transfer to Napoli and the London team had reduced the fee to be paid from £37m to £29m but Napoli still did not want to go to that figure and remained adamant on the fee of £21m. I think the negotiation process will still be quite tough and who knows who will give in but Lukaku's fate will be determined in the near future.

Juventus is building a new team to the liking of their new manager, Thiago Motta. The team's weak point in recent years has been the midfield, and that's where we are seeing plenty of changes. I am looking forward to seeing Douglas Luiz in action. The first reports say that Thuram shows plenty of quality in early training sessions. The new signing for the U23 team, Adzic has also impressed with his physicality and could perhaps feature in the A team occasionally. We shouldn't forget the return of Fagioli or Locatelli who looks like a reborn player following the departure of Max Allegri.

I would hate to see Mattias Soule leave the club, but it looks like that will happen. I was curious to see how he would perform under Motta at Juventus. He is probably going to Roma, which could open the door for the arrival of Koopmeiners from Atalanta or a new winger.

Juve might be a title contender if they manage to bring in a few more players they are interested in.

Juventus' weak point was attack, which is why they even used Chiesa, a nominal midfielder, as a striker, and Vlahovic was not enough, the team needed a good striker, but Alegre could not get enough funding for this. They tried to sell Vlahovic, but they didn't succeed, in the end I think that this was the main reason for such an uncertain season for Juventus. Alegre built a good defense, he knows how to do it. I don’t really like how Motta is rebuilding the team yet, I want to be wrong because I like Juventus, but I doubt that Juve will have a chance to compete for the Scudetto in the new season.

It is true, Juventus always has problems in their midfield, which is why in the matches they have played this season their attacks have not been able to flow well. So the presence of Douglas Luiz and Thuram will definitely make Juventus' midfield more agile and able to organize attacks more sharply. The reason is, both players have very good quality and have the status of versatile midfielders. So currently Juventus is only looking for a very sharp striker, because currently I personally feel that Juventus does not yet have a very sharp striker. Maybe currently the only striker that Juventus can rely on is Vlahovic. So in this transfer market, Juventus must look for one or two more attackers to sharpen their front line. And currently Juventus reportedly has two potential strikers who will most likely be brought in during this season's transfer market. These players are Mateo Retegui and Giacomo Raspadori.

The two players actually both have quite long contracts with their current clubs. Mateo has a contract until 2027 at Genoa and Giacomo also has a contract until 2028 at Napoli. So, to bring in these players, I think Juventus will have a long debate with the clubs where these two players occupy. Because even though it is true that these two players are not yet main players at their clubs, I see these two players as valuable assets for their clubs. But hopefully Juventus can bring in one of these two players. Because if Juventus cannot bring in a single striker in this transfer market, I am sure Juventus will not be a serious competitor in Serie A next season. Because as you said, Soule will most likely leave Juventus. In fact, according to news circulating, Chiesa and Arkadiusz Milik will also leave Juventus. So if this happens, Juventus will clearly have a very big gap in the front line. Therefore, to overcome this, Juventus is obliged to buy forward players in this transfer market, to close the gaps that these players may leave.

From the start, Conte really wanted Lukaku and yes, this made Osimhen no longer a priority at the club if he still stayed. But in my opinion, if Osimhen cannot be released this season. then Lukaku might not be taken to Napoli either. Because what I heard was that Lukaku would only be brought in if Napoli had received money from the sale of Osimhen in the transfer market. But Lukaku himself seems to have made an agreement and even said that Lukaku is ready to reduce his salary just to join Napoli. This becomes a bit of a dilemma. But what we hope now is that Osimhen can join PSG and Lukaku comes to Napoli. But PSG does not want to pay the clause price and wants Napoli to reduce the price again. But Napoli are still holding out by holding Osimhen's price and have not lowered it.

Yes, we all know why Conte wants Romero Lukaku and why Romero wants to play with him.  They understand each other and have respect for each other.
Then Osimhen, he is right, there is no point in holding back a person who doesn't want to stay and who would certainly not play happy.
The problem now is selling it.

Lukaku if Osimhen leave is almost a deal done for Napoli.
Conte has a big carisma and some players want to stay at Napoli only because of him.
Kvara otherwise is not so sure to stay there.

According to rumors he has an offer from PSG for 9mil yearly, at Napoli he actually earn around 1 mil.

The proposal from Napoli according to rumors is under 5 mil for a new contract, almost the half of what he could have from PSG...

If it is true that Juventus' weak point is in their midfield then this must really be supported by this game. I see that many of the midfielders who have been brought in are quite fresh with the age of players brought in by Thiago Motta. Hopefully this can improve Juventus' game in hand. Thiago Motta, I always see footage of their training on social media. It's quite interesting how many young players are on the Juventus line at the moment.

Thiago Motta has a lot of hope that he will be able to bring Juventus to the right path from the previous game when he was still managed by Max Allegri. Of course the tactics that will be given and the way of playing can be more efficient and courageous to play offensively rather than always playing defensively.

I agree that Juventus midfield has been a weakness and this game highlighted that issue. However I am optimistic about new midfielders brought in by Thiago Motta who are young and fresh. It is exciting to see so many young players in Juventus lineup and I think Motta coaching style and tactics can bring much needed boost to team. Unlike Max Allegri more defensive approach Motta seems to be focusing on a more offensive and courageous playing style which could be just what Juventus needs to improve their game. I'm hopeful that Motta can turn things around and lead Juventus to success.

[Weawant]

Osimhen is still the main priority if he stays for Napoli and there is no way Antonio Conte will ruin a line-up that is already very good but to ignore Osimhen is simply unreasonable.
It is true that Conte really wants Lukaku to be Osimhen's replacement, but this cannot be done quickly because Napoli really wants to get big profits from the sale of Osimhen and if this player doesn't make a big offer, Osimhen will definitely not leave Napoli.

Mostly this are your assumptions but then one thing I know is that if he doesn't fit into his plan it's very possible he's not going to grant osimhen good play time. He may just try to be very flexible about how much he gets him included in his squad, if it were to be that conte would want osimhen in his squad and would have him fit in his plans, then I'm sure he would have been on the negotiations with osimhen about his moves but since his arrival, his moves has been on getting lukaku to which he seem to put on priority so its still best for osimhen to exit because the chances conte would work so well with him using feasible enough.

[giammangiato]

the truth is that Osimhen could easily play in any team in Europe, certainly the choice is partly conditioned by the arrival of Conte but he knows very well even before the arrival of Antonio Conte that he could play in any club in Europe very well. before the arrival of Lukaku and other players who could undermine him and in fact even before that he decided to move to other teams where the salary is even higher

Which team wouldn't want Victor Osimhen in its roster of players?  I don't think anyone.  However, they are not willing to shell out all the money they ask for.
In fact, let's say that after the poor season he is overvalued and they couldn't easily justify the expense to the fans.
Unfortunately the fans count, like when Gattuso wasn't hired as coach because the fans didn't want it.

The three players who were successfully brought in in the transfer market this time were Arthur Melo from Fiorentina, Douglas Luiz from Aston Villa and Khéphren Thuram from Nice. Indeed, it is a good purchase that Juventus has made in this moment and as such, it is very likely that Juventus midfield next season will be even better and stronger. Because after all, the midfield is a very important position to improve its quality because by having a good and strong midfield, it will also provide good support for the attack line and defense line.

So yes, it is very possible that Thiago Motta will succeed in improving Juventus performance and quality next season and not only that, because Thiago Motta is also expected to be able to make Juventus win the scudetto again. Because after all,  basically Juventus has better quality than Bologna and if Thiago Motta succeeds in making Bologna great. So of course, with good quality at Juventus, it is very possible for Thiago Motta to have impressive success with Juventus.

There is a lack of balance in the midfield which they are now preparing for next season. Hoping that there will be improvements, because the players who come may not match expectations so for now it is not guaranteed that they will be fine or that they will be better in the next season. Thorough preparation will help them and they should also ensure that through internal matches at least or friendly matches they should try everything.

The reason is that the other clubs that will be their opponents next season are not easy clubs, there is the name Inter Milan which looks to be getting better, AC Milan which is starting to show itself, AS Roma which might be better and many more. Juventus have not been able to show their best game for a long time, they should start showing it again because their situation is now starting to improve.

I think this is not certain because there is possibility Federico Chiesa will leaving this summer so that's why he still included to Juventus sell lists but indeed a bit hard to find the team who really serious want to buy him because after Roma has withdraw to gets him Federico Chiesa hasn't linked to any clubs currently and indeed the latest rumour i have read that Inter Milan has been interested to Federico Chiesa but i don't think this will be happend because until now Inter Milan hasn't bid for him yet

Juventus recently has been thinking to buy Karim Adeyemi from Dortmund even Juventus currently still negotiate with Karim Adeyemi agent to talking about this transfer and the progress is quite good because it says Karim Adeyemi will considering the offers from Juventus and for Dortmund too they have been confirmed that Dortmund won't hold Karim Adeyemi if he want to leave this summer especially Karim Adeyemi is not into Nuri Sahin plan for next season so that's why if Juventus is really serious then this transfer might be will happened

Juventus have successfully to buy Douglas Luiz, Khephren Thuram, and Juan Cabal and they also under negotiation with Dortmund for Karim Adeyemi so this makes Federico Chiesa situation could be hard because if he insist to stayed at Juventus then most likely Federico Chiesa only will sit at the bench for each matches of next season and i think if Federico Chiesa still concern about his career then he should be moved from Juventus and the latest news about Federico Chiesa situations is Thiago Motta even didn't bring him for Juventus pre season tour

[asriloni]

Previously, Napoli planned to sign Lukaku after Osimhen was sold, but Napoli are currently still sticking to their plan to keep signing Lukaku even though Osimhen remains in the squad next season, playing Lukaku and Osimhen may seem like a good plan but I don't think it will be effective Osimhen who may no longer play wholeheartedly for napoli again.

Antonio Conte feels more confident with Lukaku than Osimhen because he also wanted Osimhen to leave the team and if he didn't leave I think he will not give him enough playing time which will affect Osimhen's market value and his performance which will directly be against the club's will because they were expecting to cash out big in his deal. Therefore, I think Napoli will find a way of selling Osimhen because the player has also lost interest in the team which means keeping have no use for the team. The Napoli management will reduce the money if no team is willing to pay that amount and I am sure Osimhen will not go to Sausi Arabia.

Even Osimhen's market value is steadily decreasing now. No need to wait for Lukaku to come to Napoli. If Napoli still tries to keep him, they must be ready for the consequences. They will not get much money from selling Osimhen. I remind you that there are only a few offers for Napoli, which are coming from the Saudi Pro League and PSG.

Napoli made it hard for other teams to buy Osimhen. I remember this well. Napoli rejected a $100 million offer from Newcastle for Osimhen. It's  Napoli's biggest regret.

Napoli has no solution but to cut Osimhen's silly price tag. Then, they must sell him to another club. The only problem is Osimhen's price is dropping. It's falling after his terrible performance. But, it's better to sell him.

You get cash + Lukaku, and it's a win situation for Napoli.

[Palakka]

Unfortunately the fans count, like when Gattuso wasn't hired as coach because the fans didn't want it.

Osimhen has played in three different leagues in his senior career, belgium league, Ligue 1 and Serie A, so it is not surprising that he will also be able to play in any league in the future, currently, Osimhen main desire is leave to PSG but so far this desire still hampered by Napoli decision to sell him at a very high price, which has made PSG and several other teams who wanted to recruit him actually withdraw at this time, the situation that is happening to Osimhen at the moment is clearly very difficult, especially since the beginning of Conte arrival at Napoli he has said that Lukaku will be Napoli main striker next season and makes Osimhen likely to lose his place in the Napoli squad if he fails to leave this time.

In fact  if PSG wanted to then they would not have difficulty recruiting Osimhen because their finances are currently supportive, but it seems that the strict regulations regarding financial fair are one of the reasons why PSG is currently very careful in buying new players, in case PSG makes the wrong move in spending a lot money, then you can be sure they will have a lot of problems later.

Juventus' weak point was Allegri's terrible defensive tactics that suited no one in the team, and they had absolutely no build-up play whatsoever. Juventus traditionally has strong defenders, but they were always able to supplement that with quality midfielders who knew and had the freedom to play football. That wasn't the case under Allegri. Chiesa is a left winger and good as a second striker. When healthy and under the leadership of a good coach, he can contribute with around 10-12 goals a season and around double-digit assists. Looks like we won't witness what could have happened under Motta.

[RaltcoinsB]

I don't think so, Osimhen no longer feels at home at Napoli, it has been visible since last season, regardless of the reason, but we have to understand that every player wants better career development and choosing a much bigger team makes that easier.
Osimhen has quite good quality and quite a lot of top European teams want him, but now Osimhen's departure is experiencing difficulties because Napoli management has set a fairly high price for him.
I don't know how this drama will end but I am quite sure that Osimhen will leave Napoli in the transfer market this summer.

I think he will probably leave the team, but I'm not sure. Due to Conte's influence, Osimhen may want to stay in the team for another year. If this happens, a strong offensive line will be formed in Napoli. As we know, Lukaku will come to Napoli and they will have an important striker. Considering the addition of 2 important wing players, they will continue as a dangerous team.

[Velvet78]

I like that Juventus is quite active in the transfer market.    So far they have bought two CMs (Douglas Luiz, Khéphren Thuram), a LB (Juan Cabal) and loaned a goalkeeper (Di Gregorio) as well.



This won't be enough though. They need to get rid of useless players on one hand. I have heard they have a big list of it already but not all of them have left yet. Moise Kean and Kaio Jorge have left at least. This is really important for them to have balanced finances as much as possible. They have money to sign players now but they wouldn't like to be stalled by FFP rules.    I'm hopeful about Motta era. He just needs time.

Every coach has a different match strategy. Allegri played a bit of a defensive strategy. Juventus' overall performance was stable with Allegri's help. But such a performance makes it much more difficult to dominate Serie A and win the Serie A title. Juventus scored just 54 goals last season. On the other hand, Serie A champions Inter Milan scored 89 goals. 35 goals less than Inter Milan. And with attacking players performing so poorly, winning the title in a competitive league like Serie A is not possible. Serie A's renowned and richest club is Juventus. They will definitely want to be Serie A champions. But with Allegri's help, they failed to dominate Serie A.

Juventus have changed their coach. I'm not sure if Juventus can win the title with Thiago Motta. But I think we will see a change in Juventus' overall gameplay next season. Motta is likely to strengthen Juventus' squad. And next season will play completely attacking strategy. If Motta succeeds, maybe Juventus will regain their lost glory within the next 2/3 seasons.

Napoli rejected a 100 million euro offer for Osimhen and now they have to accept the consequences. I don't know what the club board was thinking that they chose to keep Osimhen at 120 million euros. Osimhen's performance continues to decline and this will affect Napoli's performance this season. Moreover, they brought in Lukaku in this transfer market. Can Lukaku and Osimhen be played together or do they have to leave one of them on the bench? If it is true that Osimhen no longer wants to play for Napoli, I think Napoli will have a lot of problems if they don't sell Osimhen at the current price.

Thiago Motta seems to have analyzed Juventus' shortcomings well. Under previous coach Allegri, the defense was making terrible mistakes. Next year, the first thing they need to pay attention to is not to make these mistakes and I'm sure Motta, as a football player with a history full of success, will pass these on to the players.
