Juve’s four choices for post-Tudor: Three new candidates and a shocking return Juventus have yet to make a definitive decision on the future of Igor Tudor, but they’re already pondering their options, which might even include Thiago Motta. ............ With the rift between the head coach and the hierarchy growing in recent weeks, many believe that Juve’s upcoming clashes (which include contests against Real Madrid and Lazio) could prove decisive. ............ Raffaele Palladino is considered the favourite in the eyes of many due to his past at Juventus, progressive yet realistic approach, and his availability. The 41-year-old should also have the backing of Juve’s Technical Director, Francois Modesto, whom he had worked with during their time together at Monza. The young tactician has been on the shelf since leaving Fiorentina last summer. For his part, Roberto Mancini has already been linked with Juventus on countless occasions; the most recent was in March, when the hierarchy eventually opted for Tudor. The former Inter and Manchester City remains a free agent after ending his disappointing run with Saudi national team, and the same goes for Luciano Spalletti, who has been relieved from his duties with Italy following the defeat to Norway in June. The latter is also in the casting. Nevertheless, the most shocking name mentioned by the source is Motta, who was sacked by the club seven months ago, but remains under contract. ............ .

Juventus Player Ratings vs Como: Bianconeri Stunned at the Lake Juventus suffered a dismal 2-0 defeat at Como on Sunday afternoon, dropping out of the Serie A top four after a fourth consecutive winless outing. Pressure continues to build on manager Igor Tudor, with the Turin giants losing further ground on early pacesetters Napoli and Inter. ............ Juventus (4-3-3) Michele Di Gregorio – 6/10 Helpless on the line, there was nothing he could do to stop Kempf from scoring. However, he made three saves afterward to keep his side in the game until the end. Pierre Kalulu – 6/10 ............ Daniele Rugani – 5/10 He was supposed to mark Kempf, yet he was nowhere near, allowing the German defender to slam the ball into the back of the net from point-blank. Another unconvincing performance from the Italian! Lloyd Kelly – 6/10 Though he performed slightly better than his center-back partner, the Englishman didn’t inspire much confidence. However, he showed discipline after picking up an early booking. Andrea Cambiaso – 5/10 Juventus desperately needed his darting runs today, but the Italian full-back rarely ventured forward and struggled to make an impact in the final third. Too passive and too far from Paz for Como’s second goal. Teun Koopmeiners – 4/10 Merely a shadow of his former self, the Dutch star looked up the creek without a paddle, struggling to impose his usual influence and repeatedly losing the midfield battle against Como midfielders. Manuel Locatelli – 5/10 ............ Khephren Thuram – 5/10 ............ Francisco Conceicao – 6/10 The diminutive winger was arguably Juventus’ liveliest performer at the Sinigaglia Stadium, yet it wasn’t nearly enough to trouble Como’s rock-solid back three. There was no end product from the Portuguese starlet today. Kenan Yildiz – 4/10 A frustrating afternoon for the prodigious forward, who was not the difference-maker the visitors were looking for, often finding himself isolated on the wing. Jonathan David – 3/10 There’s no light at the end of the tunnel for the Canadian striker. Completely cut off from the rest of the pack, he endured another anonymous display. Substitutes Weston McKennie – 4/10 Dusan Vlahovic – 6/10 Joao Mario – N/A Filip Kostic – N/A . Read more -> https://cultofcalcio.com/juventus-player-ratings-vs-como-bianconeri-stunned-at-the-lake/

"Tornare alla Juve? Del Piero non ha mai lasciato la Juventus" Ha risposto così John Elkann ai microfoni di CNBC in merito a quello che potrebbe essere uno storico ritorno in bianconero dell'ex capitano e numero 10 della Juve Alessandro Del Piero.

Como 2-0 Juventus: Nico Paz puts toothless Old Lady to the torch Juventus suffered their first defeat of the season, as they weren’t able to tame an energetic Como side backed by the Sinigaglia crowd. Due to the many absentees, Igor Tudor dropped his favourite 3-4-2-1 formation and adopted a 4-3-3 lineup spearheaded by Jonathan David, with Kenan Yildiz and Francisco Conceicao on the wings. ............ The Bianconeri couldn’t have imagined a worse start, as they found themselves trailing after just three minutes. Nico Paz played a short corner kick, and following a give-and-go with Lucas Da Cunha, he sent a lovely inswinger to the back post that found Marc-Oliver Kempf. The German defender escaped Pierre Kalulu to latch onto the ball with venom, leaving Michele Di Gregorio with absolutely no chance. Afterwards, Juventus gradually grew with the match, becoming more dominant in the middle of the park. However, they repeatedly scuffed their chances inside the box. While David had managed to tuck the ball in from close range, the goal was disallowed for an offside on Koopmeiners, so the visitors headed to the break trailing 0-1. ............ Koopmeiners came the closest to scoring after receiving a cross from Cambiaso, but he couldn’t put enough power behind his header to trouble Jean Butez. Desperate for an equaliser, the visitors pushed forward with numbers in the 79th minute, but they were harried on the counterattack by Paz who expertly found the back far corner to round off a superb outing with a sublime finish. ............ Como 2-0 Juventus Goals: 4′ Kempf (C), 79′ Nico Paz (C) Como (4-3-3): Butez; Smolcic (86′ Posch), Kempf, Diego Carlos (46′ Ramon), Alberto Moreno (67′ Valle); da Cunha, Perrone, Caqueret (67′ Douvikas); Paz, Morata (91′ Van der Brempt), Vojvoda. Juventus (4-3-3): Di Gregorio; Kalulu (86′ Joao Mario), Rugani, Kelly, Cambiaso (86′ Kostic); Koopmeiners (75′ Vlahovic), Locatelli (75′ McKennie), Thuram; Conceiçao, David, Yildiz.

Loro sono abituati.

Scivolano tutti. Sará l'umiditá del lago?

La domanda sorge spontanea: É il Como ad essere una falsa piccola o é la Juve che é una falsa grande?

Ma l'arbitro é Forrest Gump?

Expected Juventus starting lineup vs Como: Tudor changes his formation Juventus boss Igor Tudor has reportedly decided to drop his favourite 3-4-2-1 formation and adopt a 4-3-3 system. The Bianconeri have settled for draws in their last five outings, so the fanbase has been demanding some changes. ............ Tudor has made up his mind, and will field a 4-3-3 formation in Sunday’s early Serie A kickoff against Como. ............ Michele Di Grgorio will maintain his role between the posts, with Daniele Rugani and Lloyd Kelly forming the centre-back partnership. Pierre Kalulu should start at right-back, with Andrea Cambiaso operating on the opposite flank. In the middle of the park, Manuel Locatelli is the natural choice to act as a deep-lying playmaker, accompanied by Teun Koopmeiners and Khephren Thuram in the box-to-box roles. Finally, Jonathan David is expected to lead the line once more, supported by Francisco Conceicao and Kenan Yildiz on the wings. ............ Juventus Probable XI (4-3-3): Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Rugani (Gatti), Kelly, Cambiaso; Koopmeiners, Locatelli, Thuram; Conceicao, David, Yildiz Como Probable XI (4-3-3): Butez; Smalic, Carlos, Ramon, Valle; Caqueret, Perrone, Da Cunha; Nico Paz, Morata, Vojvoda .

Agent breaks the silence on Man City’s interest in Cambiaso Manchester City was reportedly linked with a move for Andrea Cambiaso last season, and Juventus had anticipated a potential offer during the January transfer window. When no approach materialised at that time, it was expected that interest might resume in the summer. However, the Premier League club appeared to cool their pursuit, leaving the defender focused on maintaining his form and his role within the Bianconeri squad. ............ The situation has left observers questioning whether Manchester City had a genuine interest in Cambiaso or whether the rumours were part of the usual speculation that surrounds top-level football. Juventus would have considered selling the defender for a substantial fee, as the club is continually seeking to restructure and reinforce different areas of the squad. ............ Cambiaso’s agent, Giovanni Bia, was recently asked about the veracity of the transfer speculation. He confirmed that Manchester City had shown significant interest in the player: “Guardiola was very interested in him, then things happened and the deal didn’t materialize because Manchester City had several injuries and had to invest in other players. “He’s a bit like Maldini , Cambiaso is so extraordinary that he always makes himself available for Juventus. Juve often play him in his own position, but he makes himself available and that’s right.” ............ .

Official Juventus squad for Como trip: Zhegrova out, Next Gen goalkeeper in Juventus confirmed the 21-man squad that travelled to Como to take on Cesc Fabregas’ side in Sunday’s early kickoff. The Bianconeri haven’t tasted victory in their last five fixtures across all competitions, sharing spoils on every occasion. While they’ll be keen to return to winning ways, their mission won’t be easy at the Sinigaglia, especially in the absence of some of their key players. Bremer rejoined Juan Cabal on the treatment table, while Fabio Miretti has yet to overcome the injury that has been ruling him out since the start of the season, albeit his return is edging ever closer. Moreover, Carlo Pinsoglio has suffered an injury in training that will rule him out for quite some time. Interestingly, the beloved custodian insisted on travelling with his teammates to offer them his moral support, despite being on crutches. Therefore, Igor Tudor has decided to promote 21-year-old Simone Scaglia, an Italian goalkeeper who serves as a backup at Juventus Next Gen. ............ To make matters even worse for the Biancneri, Edon Zhegrova has suffered a hip issue that kept him in Turin, as his season continues to be hampered by injury problems. ............ .

Como 1907 vs Juventus: Preview and Prediction The scenic Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia will be the stage for an intriguing Serie A encounter on Sunday, as Juventus travel to face Como 1907, looking to end a frustrating run of stalemates and reignite their top-four momentum. The Bianconeri remain one of only two unbeaten sides in Serie A this season, yet their impressive resilience has been overshadowed by a worrying habit of settling for draws. Igor Tudor’s men have now gone five league games without a win, a streak uncharacteristic for a side of Juve’s pedigree. Against a confident and improving Como outfit, the visitors will be under pressure to turn consistency into conviction. For Juventus, this season has been defined by defensive solidity but attacking frustration. The 36-time Italian champions have gone 11 league games without defeat, stretching back to April, but five consecutive draws have left supporters yearning for sharper execution in the final third. Their last outing, a goalless draw against AC Milan epitomized that dilemma. Despite limiting the Rossoneri to few chances, Juventus lacked cutting edge in attack, escaping with a point after Christian Pulisic’s missed penalty. With a crucial Champions League tie against Real Madrid looming next week, the challenge for Tudor’s men will be to rediscover their attacking verve without compromising balance. Recent results in Europe have been equally chaotic, a thrilling 4–4 draw with Borussia Dortmund followed by a 2–2 draw at Villarreal — suggesting that the Bianconeri are struggling to manage games once they take control. Nevertheless, Juventus’ historical record offers reassurance: they are unbeaten in their last 23 Serie A meetings with Como, a run stretching all the way back to 1952. The last time Como defeated Juve in any competition was nearly 40 years ago in the Coppa Italia, and the Turin giants will be eager to maintain that dominance. For Tudor, victory is more than a statistical target, it’s an opportunity to restore momentum before the European stage beckons. ............ Team News & Tactics Como 1907 ............ Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Butez; Posch, Carlos, Ramon, Valle; Perrone, Da Cunha; Vojvoda, Paz, Kuhn; Morata Juventus Igor Tudor will have to contend with a number of absentees as Juventus look to protect their unbeaten record on Sunday. The most significant blow remains the loss of defensive linchpin Gleison Bremer, whose injury has ruled him out until at least December. The Brazilian’s absence continues to unsettle the rhythm of Juve’s otherwise solid three-man backline. Tudor will also be without Juan Cabal, sidelined with a thigh strain, and promising midfielder Fabio Miretti, who is nursing an ankle injury. Both are expected to miss several more weeks of action. The good news for the visitors is that Khéphren Thuram has returned to full fitness. The French midfielder made a brief substitute appearance against AC Milan before the international break and is now ready to start. He is expected to partner captain Manuel Locatelli in central midfield, offering both physical presence and ball-carrying dynamism. There are no suspension concerns in the squad, meaning Tudor will have a strong core to select from as his side aim to end their run of draws. Tactically, Juventus are likely to stick with their familiar 3-4-2-1 system, designed to balance defensive compactness with attacking fluidity in transition. Michele Di Gregorio will continue as the first-choice goalkeeper, bringing calm distribution and sharp reflexes between the posts. In front of him, the defensive trio will consist of Federico Gatti on the right, Daniele Rugani in the central role, and Lloyd Kelly on the left. Rugani’s positional discipline will be crucial in covering for Bremer’s absence, while Kelly’s ability to step forward and carry the ball adds variety to Juventus’ buildup play. The wing-backs will once again play pivotal roles in Tudor’s tactical setup. Pierre Kalulu will operate on the right flank, tasked with both providing width in attack and offering defensive support against Como’s advancing full-backs. On the opposite side, Andrea Cambiaso will feature as the left wing-back, offering tireless running and consistent delivery into the box. Their overlapping movements will be central to stretching Como’s compact defensive block. In midfield, Manuel Locatelli will anchor play from deep, dictating tempo and distributing possession with precision. Alongside him, Khéphren Thuram will bring dynamism and drive, capable of breaking lines with his forward surges. Ahead of them, Francisco Conceição and Kenan Yıldız are expected to operate as dual attacking midfielders, linking play and drifting between the lines to create overloads in the final third. Their pace and technical skill make them key in unbalancing Como’s defensive shape. Leading the line, Jonathan David is tipped to start ahead of Dušan Vlahović and Loïs Openda. The Canadian striker’s intelligent movement and clinical finishing have made a strong case for his inclusion, while his ability to press from the front aligns perfectly with Tudor’s aggressive, forward-oriented system. Probable Lineup (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio; Gatti, Rugani, Kelly; Kalulu, Locatelli, Thuram, Cambiaso; Conceicao, Yildiz; David Key Stats Juventus are unbeaten in their last 23 Serie A meetings with Como, a remarkable streak that dates all the way back to January 1952. Across those fixtures, the Bianconeri have recorded 17 wins and six draws, underlining their long-standing superiority in this matchup. Como have not beaten Juventus at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia in nearly 40 years, with their last victory coming in a Coppa Italia tie in 1986. They have lost both league meetings since returning to Serie A and scored only once across those two games. Despite their attacking inconsistencies, Juventus have one of the league’s best defensive records this season, conceding only five goals in six Serie A matches. Igor Tudor’s side have also kept three clean sheets during that stretch. Cesc Fàbregas’ men have made their home ground a fortress early in the campaign, remaining unbeaten in all competitions at Stadio Sinigaglia this season. They’ve managed one win and two draws in Serie A, conceding only three goals on home soil. Juventus have been involved in five consecutive Serie A draws, their longest such run in almost 20 years. Four of those games ended level by a one-goal margin or less, highlighting the Bianconeri’s recent difficulty in converting dominance into victories. Player to Watch Kenan Yildiz ............ Yıldız has quickly emerged as one of Juventus’ brightest young stars and a key figure in Igor Tudor’s evolving system. The Turkish-German forward has seamlessly transitioned from a promising academy prospect into a first-team regular, impressing with his creativity, composure, and ability to impact games in high-pressure moments. Operating primarily as a left-sided attacking midfielder in Tudor’s 3-4-2-1 setup, Yıldız thrives between the lines, drifting into pockets of space to receive the ball and drive at defenders with confidence well beyond his years. His close control, acceleration, and ability to beat opponents one-on-one make him a constant threat in the final third. What truly sets him apart, though, is his intelligence in movement: Yıldız frequently times his runs perfectly to exploit spaces left by defenders drawn to Jonathan David or Dušan Vlahović. Equally adept at finishing with either foot, the teenager has shown a natural instinct for goal, as well as a willingness to track back and contribute defensively, qualities that have quickly earned Tudor’s trust. His link-up play with Francisco Conceição and Khéphren Thuram often dictates Juventus’ attacking rhythm, combining youthful flair with tactical discipline. Against Como’s compact defensive block, Yıldız’s creativity and quick footwork could be the difference-maker. If he can find space to operate and test Jean Butez with his curling shots from distance or incisive passes into the box, Juventus’ search for a breakthrough might end with another moment of brilliance from their rising star. Prediction Como 1907 1-2 Juventus On paper, Juventus enter this clash as clear favourites, but their recent inability to turn dominance into victories remains a concern. Five straight draws underline a recurring issue, a lack of sharpness in the final third and lapses in concentration at key moments. Yet, even without Gleison Bremer, the Bianconeri’s structure under Igor Tudor has proven difficult to break down, and their attacking unit, led by Jonathan David and Kenan Yıldız, possesses the flair to punish any defensive hesitation. Como 1907, meanwhile, have quietly built confidence under Cesc Fàbregas, especially at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia, where they remain unbeaten this season. Their tactical discipline, efficient ball retention, and the presence of experienced forwards like Álvaro Morata make them capable of frustrating elite opposition. However, sustaining that resistance against Juventus’ relentless pressure for 90 minutes will be a tall order. Expect Como to start brightly and look to hit on the counter through Nico Paz and Morata, but Juventus’ superior quality and tactical depth should tell as the game wears on. Once the visitors find rhythm in possession, the spaces behind Como’s full-backs are likely to open, opportunities that creative players like Yıldız and Francisco Conceição can exploit decisively. .

Juventus, Tudor: Yildiz won’t rest against Como, Zhegrova injured Igor Tudor says Kenan Yildiz won’t rest in Juventus’ away game at Como, while Edon Zhegrova won’t be available due to a hip injury. ............ “Few players were here [during the break], we needed to recover, so we gave the players some days off. McKennie arrived yesterday, and everyone came back in good shape, without injuries. We’ve had two training sessions together to prepare for the match,” Tudor said. “It’s a tough game; Como are a fake small team; they’ve spent a lot of money, and the coach personally chose all the players, which is rare and a really good thing. We respect them, but we want to go there and play our game.” ............ “Everyone says: ‘We are Juventus, we have to win.’ That’s right. If you don’t win all the discussions means very little, but I have to give my perspective and explain it. Those who are intellectually honest will understand. For a coach, it’s difficult. If you don’t win at Juve, you can say whatever you want, but you are still wrong.” Kenan Yildiz scored three goals in two games with the Turkish national team during the break, but when asked whether the Turk could rest tomorrow, Tudor replied with a smile: “No, he won’t.” The Juventus coach then added: “He’s always played behind the striker with me, and he has the freedom to find spaces where he feels more comfortable. He plays wide for the national team and is doing great. If Yildiz is the problem, then we have no problems at all. Great work from him and my staff; he’s grown a lot. ............ .

Marco Tardelli urges Tudor to put faith in Vlahovic Igor Tudor is facing increasing pressure to make a decisive call on his first-choice striker at Juventus, and the uncertainty surrounding this decision is beginning to affect the team’s performances. The Bianconeri have several talented forwards at their disposal, yet finding a consistent goal-scorer has become a significant challenge for the manager. ............ Jonathan David, signed to eventually replace Vlahovic, has been struggling to find the back of the net. His performances so far have not met expectations, and this lack of end product is putting additional pressure on the team. Lois Openda, another forward brought in as part of the club’s long-term planning, has also found goals hard to come by. Despite showing flashes of promise, he has yet to deliver the level of consistency required at a club of Juventus’ stature. As a result, Vlahovic continues to play a crucial role, often coming off the bench to make an impact, even though his future lies elsewhere. ............ This situation could ultimately shape Tudor’s time in charge of the Bianconeri this season. Italian football legend Marco Tardelli has observed the team’s struggles closely and believes the manager should continue to trust Vlahovic as the main striker, at least for now. Tardelli said: “Tudor must focus on Vlahovic, he’s the best striker he has. He needs confidence and consistency. We’re missing a true champion in midfield, but Yildiz has everything it takes to become one.” ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/marco-tardelli-urges-tudor-to-put-faith-in-vlahovic/

Bremer is already at the gym, but when will he be fit to play? Gleison Bremer has recently undergone successful knee surgery and is already working on his fitness in the gym. The Brazilian defender, who has previously experienced a long spell on the sidelines due to injury, appears determined to regain his full strength as quickly as possible. His early return to training is a positive sign for both Juventus and their supporters. ............ The defender’s commitment to regaining fitness has already impressed the club and its fans. Reports of him training at the gym have been welcomed by supporters, who are eager to see one of Juventus’ key defensive players back in action. Bremer’s presence in the squad is considered vital, and the Bianconeri are determined to protect him from the risk of further setbacks. ............ Injuries of this nature typically require around four weeks for a full recovery. However, given Bremer’s recent history with long-term injury, Juventus expect that he may need closer to six weeks before returning to competitive matches. While this represents a significant period on the sidelines, the club has made it clear that patience will be exercised to ensure he is fully ready. Missing multiple important games is an inevitable consequence of this recovery period, but Juventus are confident that taking a cautious approach is in the best interest of both the player and the team. The club considers Bremer too valuable to risk re-injury, and their careful management of his rehabilitation reflects the importance they place on his long-term contribution to the squad. ............ .

Juventus tracking 20-year-old Portuguese star Famalicão youngster Gustavo Sá is rapidly becoming one of the most talked-about players in Portuguese football, with Juventus among the major European clubs monitoring his progress closely. The teenager has impressed with his maturity, technical ability, and composure, earning widespread attention from scouts across the continent. ............ The Portuguese midfielder has already built a reputation for being one of the most reliable young players in the Primeira Liga. His ability to maintain consistency, combined with his vision and composure in midfield, has set him apart from many of his peers. Scouts from both Portuguese giants and top clubs across Europe have been attending his matches this season, highlighting the growing competition for his signature. ............ Juventus’ interest in Gustavo Sá is serious, and he is regarded as one of the young players who could realistically be added to their squad. Igor Tudor currently has several experienced professionals at his disposal, but if he remains in charge of the Bianconeri, there could be room in his plans to introduce Sá to first-team football. ............ .

Di Livio says some Juventus players still do not know what the club means Angelo Di Livio has commented on Juventus’ ongoing struggles under Igor Tudor, highlighting that the club currently has several players who do not yet understand the responsibilities that come with playing for the Bianconeri. As a former Juventus star, Di Livio is well aware of the demands placed on anyone wearing the club’s iconic black and white shirt, and he has expressed concern over the team’s recent underperformance. ............ Despite signing several top-quality players in recent seasons, the squad has struggled to demonstrate the consistency and confidence required to win matches and compete for silverware. New signings often speak highly of the club at their introductions, acknowledging its stature and history, yet these declarations have not always translated into performances on the pitch. ............ Di Livio shared his observations on Juventus’ current difficulties and the areas that require attention. He said: “Tudor knows the club. I think there are players who still haven’t figured out where they are, and I see fear. There are players who are highly paid, like Koopmeiners, who looks like the brother of the one we saw at Atalanta. David and Openda still have a lot to grow with; there are many aspects. I don’t like Kalulu as a right-back; I think he’s wasted. There are things that need to be reworked, and I hope Igor can get his hands on them. And today, I’d play Vlahovic. The draw against Milan is a point earned; that mentality is still missing, and it’s surprising.” .

Juventus makes a January decision on the future of Koopmeiners Teun Koopmeiners is facing growing pressure to prove his value as a Juventus player, with time running out for him to demonstrate the form that once made him one of Europe’s most admired midfielders. The Dutchman arrived in Turin with high expectations, but his performances have so far fallen short of what many anticipated. ............ Over the course of one full season and several additional months, Koopmeiners has found it difficult to adapt to the tactical demands placed upon him by the Bianconeri. His performances have been inconsistent, and he has yet to establish himself as a regular game-changer in midfield. Despite his lack of form, Juventus have remained patient. The club decided against offloading him during the last transfer window, even though other players, such as Douglas Luiz, were moved on. That patience, however, now appears to be running thin as the midfielder’s regression continues. ............ Koopmeiners has just over 70 days to prove that he can still become an important part of Juventus’ project. If he fails to improve during this period, the club is expected to place him on the transfer list when the market reopens in January. This timeline effectively gives the Dutchman the remainder of the year to show that he is committed to turning his Juventus career around. ............ .

Capello compares Juventus and Como youngsters Nico Paz and Kenan Yildiz are currently two of the most promising young talents in Italian football. Juventus have invested significant effort in developing Yildiz, who has emerged as one of the most reliable attackers in European football. The club views him as their latest rising star, and fans and pundits alike have drawn comparisons between him and former Juventus legend Alessandro Del Piero. ............ Under Juventus’ system, Yildiz has honed his dribbling skills, one-on-one ability, and overall tactical awareness. His performances have been crucial in several key games, and he has demonstrated a maturity beyond his years. The Bianconeri see him as an integral part of their youth development plans, with the aim of shaping him into a player capable of contributing at the highest level in Serie A and European competitions. ............ Fabio Capello has recently compared both players, highlighting their respective strengths. He said: “Both have great technique; perhaps the Juventus player has a greater ability to use both feet compared to the Argentine, who mainly relies on his excellent left foot. Compared to him, the Turk has more dribbling ability; he’s dangerous in one-on-one situations and has excellent vision and finishing skills. He sees both the play and the goal well, and performs better as a winger who can cut inside towards the centre of the pitch.” ............ .

Lawyer reveals if Juventus faces a transfer ban for financial breaches Juventus are under investigation by UEFA, with the club potentially facing sanctions if any rules have been breached. The Bianconeri were previously penalised when an earlier investigation led to a ban from European competitions, raising concerns among fans that a similar situation could occur again if Financial Fair Play regulations have not been met. ............ The club faces a range of possible outcomes depending on UEFA’s findings. Sanctions could include restrictions on player registration for European competitions, fines, or limits on the number of players allowed in squad lists. Such measures would affect Juventus’ strategic planning and could impact both their domestic and European campaigns. ............ Legal expert Eduardo Chiacchio has offered insight into what Juventus might expect from the investigation. He stated: “And this is actually the most interesting part. We’re dealing with minor violations because, all things considered, we’re talking about negligible, or almost negligible, amounts. The sanctions envisaged include the blocking of one of the transfer windows, or a fine, or a limitation on the number of players available in Europe—for example, a list of 24 could be reduced to 20.” Chiacchio’s analysis suggests that while UEFA’s review is serious, the potential breaches appear to be minor and may not result in severe punishments. The club’s management is expected to cooperate fully with the governing body to ensure compliance and minimise any impact on sporting operations. ............ .
