If rumours are to be believed then it looks like Chelsea are going to do what a lot of English clubs do and price us out of the race for Caldara. However, I'm waiting to see what happens, as this could be a fabricated leak to pressure us imo. La Repubblica also reports that to try and not kill the deal we had, Juve have offered Rugani in place of Caldara. They're desperate to get rid of Higuain (who knows what's happening there), but I wouldn't reject the possibility. Rugani's potentially great too and while it's true in the past year or two Caldara has surpassed his growth, I think it's mostly down to Juve's poor management of Rugani. As a defender, I think Caldara's better, but in starting plays from the back, Rugani is better in this regard.
I want this situation resolved soon either way, I think the key comes down to what Higuain demands, hopefully we'll know more by the end of today after Leo speaks to him and his brother.
On another note, I read Samassekou is now being priced between 10-15m (I can't remember the source, but it was on Milannews). This guy seems a really interesting player, I've been looking into him and it seems he would likely play in place of Biglia or as mezzala.
