Italian champions Juventus, who triumphed in Turin, nurture ambitious plans for the next season, in which they will seek a successful performance in the UEFA Champions League tournament.
It is said that the leaders of "The Old Lady" prioritize the attacking line, which they would like to strengthen with top-level footballers.
The main contender for this position is Real Madrid's Argentine Gonzalo Higuain. However, preliminary negotiations with the Spanish team were not successful, as the player who scored thirteen goals in the Spanish league is valued at least 30 million euros, while Juventus is not willing to pay more than 25 million euros.
"We will try to match financial possibilities with ideas. Expectations are huge, as the bar is set very high, but we need to understand that winning is not always possible, especially in these difficult times," said Juventus director Beppe Marotta. "At the end of the season, we will sit down with coach Antonio Conte and decide what needs to be done."
Among other candidates, names like Luis Suarez, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, and Stevan Jovetic are mentioned, but the situation is complicated by the fact that the budget for new players at the Turin club will not exceed 30 million euros, excluding funds from the sale of players.
