Gazzetta dello Sport - Bonucci 'diffs' Juventus: he asked for reinstatement

The former captain asked to be reinstated in the squad through a pec sent by his lawyer, no of Juventus.

The story between Juventus and Leonardo Bonucci ends badly, indeed very badly. The former captain is in fact ready to take legal action.

A definitive breakup and no way back, after the club a few weeks ago had communicated to Bonucci the intention to put him out pink.

The defender, until today, however, has never taken into account the offers that have come for him and still hopes to be able to stay at Juventus. A desire that, however, will hardly come true.

BECAUSE BONUCCI IS OUT

Leonardo Bonucci was put out of the squad by Juventus because he is no longer part of the technical project of Massimiliano Allegri in view of the 2023/24 season.

The decision was communicated to him directly while he was on vacation by the new sports director, Cristiano Giuntoli.

BONUCCI'S LEGAL ACTION

Bonucci, who did not participate in the tour in the USA and did not even take part in the family friendly, trains together with the other redundancies at the Continassa at different times than the rest of the group.

That's why Bonucci, according to 'La Gazzetta dello Sport', would have sent a pec through his lawyer asking for immediate reinstatement in the squad.

Juventus, for its part, reiterated that the choice to put out Bonucci is purely technical and that the defender is still put in the best conditions to train.

WHAT'S GOING ON NOW

After Bonucci's move, the risk for Juventus is that the former captain will quote her before the Arbitration College to obtain the termination of the contract, which expires on June 30, 2024, or more likely an economic indemnity that could exceed 2 million euros.

THE FUTURE OF BONUCCI

But what will Bonucci do now? Closed his long history in the Bianconeri definitively, the defender should find another team also so as not to lose the opportunity to play the European Championships with the national team.

In recent weeks there had been rumors of interest of Lazio in Serie A and Sampdoria, coached by his friend Pirlo, in Serie B.

It is also not excluded that Bonucci continues his career as a footballer abroad, in this sense the most likely hypotheses would lead to Turkey in MLS.

Finally, there is the hypothesis of withdrawal one year in advance of what was initially planned by Bonucci himself.
