Koopmeiners-Nico Gonzalez with Como? Giuntoli's deadline and Juve's redundancies

Diplomacy at work for the thaw with Atalanta, for the Argentine instead it is a question of fitting together. Surpluses, the new Ajax idea in defense

These are the days of the harvest: Cristiano Giuntoli has decided to abandon Thiago Motta and the team for a day, even if it is for the most prestigious and difficult friendly of the summer, to focus on the negotiations that will have to turn the black and white market around . The intention is to bring Teun Koopmeiners and Nico Gonzalez to Turin before the match against Como, scheduled for next Monday, which will kick off the first championship of the new technical course. The step to be taken concerns the clubs that own the player's registration rights, given that agreements have already been reached with the agents of the two players in question for some time and now it is necessary to unblock the impasse with the clubs. Sensations and rumors suggest that the first operation will lead to Bergamo in order to untie the Koopmeiners knot who, as everyone now knows, has eliminated himself from the Nerazzurri project with a medical certificate that has allowed him not to train . A break that was all in all expected and inevitable but which now needs to be mended at club level too.

Koopmeiners, Atalanta and O'Riley

Diplomacy is at work, meetings are taking place (although not at the level of top management but rather of market men) for days and now even the Juventus managers are convinced that it will not be possible to get much more than the 60 million requested by Atalanta CEO Luca Percassi : the fixed peace could even reach 55 million. In any case, the official figure will be formulated shortly and it is not excluded that Atalanta will fly to Warsaw, where on Wednesday they will challenge Real Madrid in the European Super Cup, with the Koopmeiners issue already resolved and, perhaps, with the simultaneous arrival of Matt O'Riley , from Celtic.

Juve on Nico Gonzalez

For Gonzalez, however, Juve is “prisoner” of two puzzles: before giving the green light, Fiorentina wants to sign Gudmundsson , the Viola already have an agreement with the player and with Genoa who, in turn, wants to secure a replacement first. Here: once the various pieces of the puzzle have fallen into place, Gonzalez will arrive at Continassa to provide Motta with an alternative on the outside attacking lanes. It is not certain that it is the only one, because the Juventus technical director is keeping an eye on other situations, such as that of Conceiçao and Galeno of Porto, for whom just yesterday the Portuguese coach hinted at a possible farewell: « I am aware of the economic needs of the club ». As for Fiorentina, on the sidelines of the negotiations for Nico Gonzalez, there is discussion about the possible transfer of one between McKennie and Arthur to Fiorentina (a return that Palladino would particularly appreciate), but it is important to reiterate that these are operations separate from that for the Argentine.

Juve, the redundancies

Just as the possible arrival of defender Josip Sutalo from Ajax is unrestricted , where Daniele Rugani , one of the other "surplus" players still in the hands of the black and white club, should be transferred in the next few days. Finally, on the exit front, there is a slowdown and an acceleration to be noted. The first concerns the transfer of Hasa to Palermo where the ds Morgan De Sanctis has preferred to veer towards the experience of Verre, who is also unrestricted and therefore decidedly cheaper for the pink club. Instead, the transfer of Hans Nicolussi Caviglia to Venezia is about to be unblocked, having decided to act regardless of Tessmann 's exit .
