Ma il colpo è l'olandese Elia

La trattativa non è però del tutto naufragata: se anche non se ne farà nulla per la chiusura di questa finestra estiva del calciomercato i dirigenti juventini avoreranno per perfezionare il trasferimento a gennaio. Ma intanto si conclude l'affare più importante: arriva Elia per 9 milioni (più bonus) dall'Amburgo.

rhodolfo dice sì— E' proseguita nella notte la trattativa tra la Juventus e il San Paolo per Luiz Rhodolfo Dini Gaioto.

Si è discusso fino a tardi di ogni dettaglio, soprattutto delle varie quote del cartellino del giocatore, non tutte concentrate in un unico soggetto giuridico. Intorno a mezzanotte, comunque, l'ad Marotta mostrava ottimismo in attesa dell'ok del club di Juvenal Juvêncio. Rhodolfo, colosso di 193 centimetri, è nel mirino bianconero da almeno un mese, e dopo una serie di valutazioni era stato preferito a Coates, 20enne nazionale uruguaiano, ora a un passo dal Liverpool. Gli agenti del brasiliano sono a Torino da tre giorni, pronti già oggi a formalizzare ogni accordo.

rilancio juve— La Juventus infatti non si arrende, e tenta un ultimo assalto a Rhodolfo dopo il "no" della dirigenza paulista alla prima offerta pari a 8 miloni di euro. A confermare il pressing bianconero sul 25enne difensore del San Paolo è il suo agente, Rafael Félix. "La Juventus ha presentato una nuova offerta che i dirigenti del San Paolo stanno studiando. La nuova proposta non si discosta molto da quella precedente, vedremo nelle prossime ore".

Awesome signing, hopefully he will be a left sided Krasic although he is different.

thats to harsh that 'south american dude' was voted as the best LW in the tournament in Coppa America he caused every opponent havoc and he has talent so I want to see him play.

Also give a chance to giaccherini he saluted us he told he will give everything

he scored 3 goals in 1 and a half training session

in other words have respect for them let them first show them selfs than judge

I am amazed tbh at the comment fratello

Well to be fair Dejan, neither were bought to start. However, they can and I believe will still have a positive impact. By depth alone Juventus is much stronger than last season.

Last season left wings:
Marchisio
Pepe
Martinez

This season:
Elia
Esti
Giacch/Vucinic if needed

Definite improvement

I want them to be given a shot ...not that harsh on them without a chance //

Im with Devi and Luca. Im not big fan of Giaccherini, but iwill atleas give hima chance. I watched as much of the Copa America as I could, and Estigarribia has real talent. Just ask Dani Alves, who "Chelo" tore apart time and time again. Plus with hopefully Elia, and our youngsters Pasquato, De Silvestro, and Boniperti, I think we have alot of strength on our wings. Were gonna be extremy dangerous this season.

Well I was a bit harsh so I apologize. But you called Giovinco a midget and unloyal even though he spent his life as a Juventino and was treated like garbage, so it goes both ways bro...

But I am willing to give them both a chance, so let's see what they can do. And when I say that they should both be on the bench, that means that I want quality starters, so at the very least Marotta has delivered us a quality starter at LW, so I will give kudos to him and a thumbs up for that...

Marotta doesn't suck, really, at least on this day...

Transfers after August 20th should be successful

Aquilani, Krasic, Quagliarella
Giaccherini, Elia, Esti, ??

Well its more likely that Elia and Krasic will be the starters atleast in my opinion..

And there are reports that Conte is not impressed with Krasic so if at all he is benched,We could always move Elia to the right wing and have Esti on the left so all in all we seem to possess great wing depth considering Conte's formation is pretty much an offensive setup..

Atleast we seem to possess players that caters to the coach's needs unlike last season..

a highly motivated Elia:

Is that true? I would like to see these reports
Pretty silly idea, Krasic on the right is fantastic and he already has a good understanding with Licht

I am not sure i actually read a few reports on this forum suggesting that and also Goal.com too which says that Conte isnt entirely convinced with Krasic..

Has definitely had a poor pre-season.But just a hypothetical situation..If he fails to regain his lost form perhaps Conte would move him to the bench ,it wouldnt cost us dear since we have quality options now..

But i agree Krasic should be a guaranteed starter in the eleven..

Elia vs Hungary, when he wants to play, u be the judge:

Yehhhh although I'm waiting for some more Clarification . Very excited !

pasquale22 wrote:Yehhhh although I'm waiting for some more Clarification . Very excited !

hold your breath m8t, I will only wait till I see him sign before getting excited, some reports are saying though we've agreed with HSV over the transfer, we've not agreed terms with Elia yet, and he has reportedly told his agent he would prefer a move to Arsenal over us..... so we w8t to see.

Of course though elm, he plays like that very rarely. There is a reason he rides Hamburg's bench and gets subbed of at halftime when he does play.

Flashy and skullfull yes, arrogant and very discontinuous also.

If he can sort himself out then fine, you have a prospectively a dynamite player. All down to Conte, if he can't get the guy playing with consistency, then Esti and Giaccherini will be playing FAR more than everyone thinks.

I've watched Elia when he's good, pace, power and flashy wingplay; but i've also watched more of him, mostly in the Bundesliga, when he is almost unwatchable or just anonymous.

I welcome his arrival but he arrives as a equal with Full-Metal-Giak and El Chelo; if he is to show his best guarenteeing him as a starter and treating him as a Demi-god is maybe not the best way to go about it.

We'll see what he can do

Cassano is more talented and a far more decisive player though.
