http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Olympique-Lyonnais-c40130 rejected Juventus bids – Serie A Transfer Update
Olympique Lyonnais winger, Michel Bastos, has unveiled the reasons behind his failed move to the Turin giants, Juventus FC. The Brazilian international was reckoned to be very close to signing a deal with La Vecchia Signora. However, due to some unknown
reasons, the 28-year-old had decided to stay in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899.
Recently, while talking to France Football, Bastos revealed the reason for his failed transfer move. The winger revealed that in spite of him keen on moving to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926 for the upcoming 2011/12 season, Les Gones were not willing to let go.
"This is what happened, Juventus made two official offers for me, but OL didn't accept their bids. That was it. I needed clarity for myself though. I needed to know where I would play in the new season. I had enough of all the waiting and made my decision.
I am staying at Lyon," said the Brazilian international.
Juventus currently lack a left winger and have been keen on adding a suitable player to the left flank. However, initially successful with transfers, Juve seem to have issues in making concrete transfer bids. The Lady Killers have been tracking Bastos for
a couple of weeks and it was very likely that a deal would finalize between the two outfits.
Now that a deal for the Brazilian winger is out of course for Juve, it is very likely that the Turin giants would turn their attention towards either http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Manuel-c23383
Vargas.
With the season to start in about a week’s time, Juve need to act quickly in order to find the missing pieces in the squad. The Bianconeri have been on a squad revamp strategy since the start of the ongoing summer transfer window and were able to find the
best deals during the beginning of the market. However, as they came closer to starting the upcoming term, Juve have lacked success in acquiring the desired players.
