The Old Lady Speaks, Episode 235: Looking at Juve’s keeper, Chiesa situations

The Old Lady Speaks: A Juventus Podcast

The summer transfer market is starting to heat up for Juventus, and that means the first names that soon-to-be manager Thiago Motta and director Cristiano Giuntoli are eyeing up have dominated the rumor mill.

On Episode 235 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss:

• The transfer rumor mill has been busy lately — and not all of those rumors are ones that make us happy as Juventus fans.
• The biggest potential departure being talked about over the last week involves Federico Chiesa’s status at Juventus and if he’s truly in Thiago Motta’s plans as contract talks look to have cooled off in recent weeks.
• A Juve player who looks more and more like he’s leaving is goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny. And that is because Juve are on the cusp of signing Monza’s Michele Di Gregorio, a player who very much suits Motta’s style of play more than the 34-year-old Szczesny.
• Juventus’ negotiations for Teun Koopmeiners won’t be easy — but then again, we figured that would be the case because of how much Atalanta want for him.
• Other thoughts on potential Juventus transfer moves, most notably their chase for Riccardo Calafiori and just what some of these rumored player exchanges would do for the team’s depth going into next season.
