Viola reject Juve bid for Jovetic

Fiorentina have rejected a €30m offer from Juventus for Stevan Jovetic, reports the Corriere dello Sport.

The Old Lady have just days left to buy a new attacking player ahead of their Champions League bid and Jovetic has again been targeted.

It was thought that the Viola would do a deal with any club who made such an offer for the Montenegro international, but the Della Valla family have – for now – failed to be tempted into a sale.

The Tuscan club have often spoken of a gentleman’s agreement with the player that they would discuss a sale if any side were to make a €30m bid.

Juventus have been looking to add quality to their striking options after trying and failing to sign Robin Van Persie before he left Arsenal for Manchester United.

They have also been linked with Atheltic Bilbao’s Fernando Llorente and Edin Dzeko of Manchester City, amongst many others.

obviously too late after his brace but the bright side is that we're finally willing to spend some money

Juve are way too late with that 30 mill offer, should have done that months ago.

It's almost insulting to Fiorentina to come in this late and meet their asking price for Jovetic. Fiorentina has built a decent team that could quality for Europa League and now Juve finally meets their asking price. I am a little upset with Marotta about this one. Jovetic was the only player even close to being worth 30 million that we have been linked to and we tried to get him at a bargain price.

Why so late in making an offer like this?

Really time is running out and clubs like Fiorentina won't sell now because there's no way they could find a good enough replacement in a few days.

They can't offer amazing money, European football at any level or any real guarantee they will have European football in the years to come.

We should have tried to wrap this up a long time ago.

We need a striker before the window shuts Mr. Marotta. Yet again at Parma our strikers didn't really do anything of note.

Penalty - Won by a Wing back and taken by a midfielder.

Goal 1 - LWB crossed it to the RWB.

Goal 2 - Midfielder fouled, other midfielder scores the goal.

And this will probably happen alot this season if we don't get a very good finisher. What exactly does our strike force bring to the table nowadays?They're no good at free kicks, not particularly good at assisting and they are far from being clinical either in the air or with the ball on the ground.
