Master Bates

Surprised there's still no small leaks yet, the club must be keeping this one close to their chests....

What a dia situation it's become.

Alcaraz: "When I think about where I am now it’s something incredible,” “When I moved to Juve, my former teammates at Racing and also the president contacted me, as happened when I went to Southampton." “I’m very happy to stay here. It’s one of those things you dream of as children, that is, playing in one of the great clubs in Europe. Playing for Juventus at 21 is something crazy." “If I think about how I arrived here in such a short time, I ask myself ‘What am I doing here?’: it’s very nice. When I arrived, I was almost ashamed, I felt a little insecure." “Arriving at Juventus, with all the great players it has had and has been something that can put you in difficulty"

Roberto De Fanti, Gabbiadini's agent: "Manolo was not finding space, he was managed by Silvio Pagliari. I experienced the negotiation as an intermediary on the Southampton side. He wasn’t finding the space he wanted at Napoli and we thought the Premier League was the right place,” The English club had been following him for several years, they had seen the possibility of getting Gabbiadini and they called me to ask if I could help them in the negotiations. A negotiation that was masterfully conducted by the whole of Napoli, by Cristiano Giuntoli and then also by Silvio Pagliari, Gabbiadini’s agent. The negotiation was closed on the last day of the market but it was quite fluid.”

.... I'll leave tonight to trousers for updates. I'm watching St Helens

Sebastian Lopez, Alcaraz agent: "Yes, Yes, in the middle I get a call from Juventus. This was a Monday, I meet with Southampton and we establish a little bit what the exit conditions are. On Monday night, I get Juventus on the phone, which even I was incredulous about. So, with all that reservation, I told Charly: ‘Look, Juventus fell for it. They promised to send an official offer tomorrow and then we’ll know’. The next day, at 08:30 in the morning, I had an official offer from Juventus on my mobile phone. In one day, we got the deal done,” “They had a loan of about €1.5m plus a penalty. Southampton were very keen that where he goes on loan there had to be a penalty if the player didn’t play. They looked for a clause where they tie in that the guy has to play. They created this penalty if the player plays less than 30% of the minutes, but it decreases to the point where the penalty is zero if he plays more than 60%.”

Won goal of the month.
