Juventus is reported by AS, to be trying to negotiate with Real Madrid to acquire Lass. Thus Moratta will organize by the end of the week a video conference with Jose Angel and Perez to negotiate his purchase. Despite Lass saying that he wants to go in england, Juventus doesnt give up, and they are ready to insert Felipe Melo in the Deal + 6M.

However, since it's Lass trying to force his way out, despite being told he is wanted and being offered a new contract, RM isnt looking to compromise and juventus will have to pay the asking price which is around 20M.
Surely more to come if contact is indeed made.

Juventus meanwhile is trying to convince his agent so he can persuade the player, as Conte sees Lass as a perfect compliment to Pirlo. Since we are looking to finish the deal with coentrao, his sale has become a priority, so that we use his sale money to make our signings.

what do you mean?

yh the garay was linked to juventus as well, but they dont need a CB. Lass persists in leaving and he isnt getting "big" offers from england from what i get, while Conte is a big fan and they are trying to boot Melo

Lass is not a 20 million dollar player. Madrid is being a bit outrageous in its demands here.

he wont go for 20 but at least 18 at which we bought him.

20m gogogog

Really love to see him leave

Early in his Real Madrid career, he actually showed signs that he may be worth the price tag. It's too bad his career basically descended by the season.

If we can manage to sell for 18 to 20, I'll be quite happy.

I doubt anyone will pay even 15mil for Lass...

the club isnt looking to sell him in the first place so he will have to stay, they dont mind lol

It's about time Real Madrid start selling its players at market or above market value...

15-20m will be enough imo. Willl Felipe Melo be happy on the bench if he does come?

Melo? Lame. I hope we get more than 15 for Lass

Don't sell him at all. The price tag of 20 mil € is just right
It's easier to have him as back up, we know how he performs and he doesn't need time to adapt

Lass wants to go somewhere he will be a starter because of the Euro. If he stays here, Blanc wont call him up, despite the fact that he is playing and doing well. I cant blame him, at 25 it's hard to give up on NT football.

Excellent. juve attempt to negotiate? then lass will stay with us. Lass is one of the best dms in the world and we need him. I cannot trust our midfield to khedira, hes too injury prone (I really dont favor injury prone players if anyone hasnt noticed. too much risk vs benefit).

i think its the wrong move to sell lass. despite what people think of him he has been able to come off the bench and preform very well in the past year. you guys all forget how many times you all placed him as MOTM in the old forums.

what we are also all forgetting is how rare his type of DM is these days. selling him kills off that dimension of our game. id like to keep our options open, sell gago to juve they need him more than lass and we need lass more than gago.

This. Although iirc, gago wants boca junoirs return.

It's not up to Madrid... he wants to leave very badly and has made it clear. We are going to sell him. But we're being tough negotiators. We can always back off when the transfer season is towards the end. But for now, no need to be wimps in negotiations.

Yeah, we arent choosing to sell him. He WANTS TO GO. we offered him more money and he turned it down. Unless he is a starter, he has no chance for the NT, that's how it goes.

if lass and gago are both gone.. then we need to sign another DM/defensive typeCM player.

who?

m'vila? cant even think of any DMs that would even possibly be on the market.

M'Vila won't come either.

That's why we're considering getting Melo. Altintop can fulfill that role too imo.

I dont know if we are considering melo tho, dude has mental issues, is that what we must stay away from? That guy would be a guaranteed red against Barca.

i laught at anyone who justifies him staying. i hope juve just go ahead and pay 15 mil euros or something and then he leaves.

he doesnt wasnt madrid, and im sure we can get a better dm out there if needed.

This one is contentious for me. Far from a perfect fit for him.

Conte's 4-2-4 in the past has not used a natural DM, or for that matter a Regista like Pirlo. Indeed if we are talking only about fitting Conte's system the Midfield, Pirlo won't walk into our team, never mind lass.

As for the money your asking too, It's a joke surely? :lol!:

Hate to break it to you guys, but I just don't see it.

cmon manchester city.. ur time is now.

15 mil euros for the fenchman cmon now..
