There is no exchange

However, as ‘TuttoJuve’ has reported, the operation has fallen in the last hours and the pieces will remain as they were.

Pressure for Yildiz

Besides, taking into account the absence due to injury of Dusan Vlahovicthis bad news does even more damage to the Vecchia Signora, because Spalletti is going to have to continue putting all the scoring load on Kenan Yildiz, who is acting as a number 9 in the last few games, but who at this stage of his career is clearly still a winger, and has a hard time positioning himself in the central part of the field.
