Allegri wants Jesus to replace Ronaldo at Juventus
The Portuguese, who is entering the final year of his contract with the Turin giants, is priced around €29m by Juventus and the Bianconeri have been linked with a variety of marquee signings for his replacement. However, it seems their newly-appointed boss has a secret plan for the purpose.
The 5-time Ballon d’Or winner,
Cristiano Ronaldo
, joined Juventus for a €117.00m fee on Jul 10, 2018, and despite the criticism, he faces from media and fans due to Juventus's poor season, he has scored 29 goals in his 33 Serie A appearances.
However, with the Portuguese’s contract due to expire next summer, the negotiations over a contract renewal might get twisted due to Juventus
pandemic-affected finances
and Ronaldo’s age, 33. Hence, Juventus are in the market for a possible alternative to the Portuguese, who has been heavily linked with a return to Real Madrid.
Massimo Allegri
has returned to Juventus dugout to replace under-achieved
Pirlo
, who ended the season in fourth-place, 13 points behind Serie A champions, Inter.
According to
La Gazzetta dello Sport, if
Ronaldo
moves to
Paris Saint-Germain
this summer,
Icardi
becomes a natural solution for the Bianconeri, but their newly-appointed manager wants Manchester City’s Brazilian star,
Gabriel Jesus
, to replace the Portuguese.
Meanwhile, with the departure of
Sergio Aguero
and in search of a high-profile striker,
Manchester City
has put their eyes on
Tottenham
Hotspur’s captain,
Harry Kane
, who’s forcing for a summer departure from Spurs.
Hence, The Citizens must invest heavily to secure a deal with hard-to-deal-with
Daniel Levy
for the English forward’s signature, and they might be open to sacrifice
Gabriel Jesus
for financial matters.
