Juventus said no to Mesut Ozil. The 32-year-old Turkish playmaker is expiring his contract withArsenal and at the end of the season he will leave the London club: his profile would be part of the transfer market policy of the bianconeri, who in recent years have scored several free transfer shots, and would certainly raise the quality of the median of Andrea Pirlo, who expects more reinforcements in January.
The player would have been offered several times over the last few years at the Juventus club, which, however, has always refused due to the high salary (perceives 9 million euros per year) and due to the precarious physical conditions of recent months: Fabio Paratici and the Turin managers do not want to repeat the mistake made with Sami Khedira.
The future of Ozil, according to ESPN, could instead be overseas, in the United States. In MLS, DC United, Los Angeles Galaxy and Inter Miami would be on his trail.
Instead, the road to Paul Pogba remains open, as explained by the agent Mino Raiola in recent days: “It is useless to go around it. Better to speak clearly, look ahead and not waste time looking for culprits: Paul at Manchester United is unhappy, he is no longer able to express himself as he would like and as expected of him. He has to change teams, he has to change the air. He has a contract that will expire in a year and a half, in the summer of 2022, but I believe that the best solution for the parties is to sell in the next market. Otherwise, the Old Trafford club, with which relations are excellent, knows that they would risk losing him on a free transfer, given that for the moment it is not the player’s intention to extend the contract. If someone doesn’t understand it, they understand little or nothing about football. In any case, let them blame me if Paul leaves next summer ”.
“Maybe it could be Juve his next destination. Why not? Among other things, the relationship with the club and with his former companions is excellent. At the time of Covid, Paul cannot afford it in many. The important thing is to want it ”.
