The Director of the Turin outfit has gone on to state that they will be keeping their eyes peeled for any probable transfers they could target in the future.
After winning the Scudetto under the tutelage of Antonio Conte, there was only one shortcoming of the great Juventus outfit that went undefeated through the course of the 2011-12 season. The Lady Killers created history, as they are the only side to have
remained unbeaten throughout the course of a season, and are still on that spree as they have won both of their matches in the Serie A, so far.
Their shortcomings were taken to be the lack of a genuine striker, one who could score more than 25 goals a season. It is interesting to note that the highest goal scorer for Juve was http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alessandro-Matri-c4733 who scored 11 goals during the whole length of the season.
This led the club to be linked to various players in the summer transfer window, and they had been quoted to have tried to lure the services of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Edinson-Cavani-c11955 from Napoli. However, after failing to woe the player with higher wages and also trying to persuade
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robin-van-Persie-c31380.
Van Persie had conceded that he will not be looking to extend his contract at the club, and as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 would have had to part ways with the striker for free in the next season, they decided to listen to offers. However, Juve were unable to lure the Flying
Dutchman to the Turin with a mega money move, and the striker decided to go to Manchester United.
They also hunted down http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fernando-Llorente-c13671, however, nothing conclusive came out of it, and when Marotta was asked about his thoughts over possible signings, he went on to state:
“We are continuing to monitor interesting players and we’ll decide whether to make any moves in January. We have looked for players with a certain profile and Jovetic fits that, but he is a Fiorentina player and the Viola will decide his future. Llorente?
We are continuing to work.”
Juve also tried to hijack the Viola deal of Berbatov at the last moment, but that also failed to materialise.
