Giovanni Leoni (CB) Parma

Seeming Gomez is homegrown I’d like us to keep Gomez as a luxury extra bit of depth for all of the defense, center, left and right. Assuming he is okay with that being his role in the squad of course.

Apparently it’s on whatever that means according to Fabrizio. His Italian contacts are much better than mine. :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

There are so many ways Fab writes these things.

This didnt include here we go or here we go soon. Those tend to be the two he uses when its really on.

Yeah he’s old school. He still calls it the Milk Cup as well.

He has got better stats than Yoro, Huijsen and Zabarnij if correct.

It’s probably important to note though that his data sample size is small - only played around 1,200 first team minutes last season - and he also played in a weaker league than those.

And I think Huijsen rates above him in the majority of metrics.

Please make this happen LFC as I have had enough of negative vibes from Newkie.

Let’s hope the price reflects that.

I agree but on a much bigger playing bandwidth.

I wonder why Kerkez and Huijsen were moved on so quickly by Milan. They must be kicking themselves.

Think Huijsen was Juve…

I am not sure but didn’t inter only wanted to pay €15M initially with a few add ons?

Ah, you’re right. Question still stands subject to that alteration! But wrong thread.

Sorry on two counts!

On Kirkez he agitated for a move after feeling his reality at Milan was not what was sold to him. They brought in Maldini to give him the big sell, telling him he was the heir apparent to Hernandez but then when he got there he wasn’t really getting a look in. He decided going back to reserve football wasnt what he needed at that stage so started agitating for an exit and Milan granted it not understanding why some Serbian kid in the reserves was worthy of putting up with any shit from.

For Hujisen, it was pure money. They needed money and knew he would raise a decent amount without hurting their immediate prospects. Very short term thinking, but that is how Juve had been doing it for a decade by that time.
