Juventus Will Spend €40 Million On An Atletico Madrid Player This Summer.

Since joining Atletico Madrid in the Spanish capital, Rodrigo de Paul hasn’t exactly been a household name. The Argentina midfielder has flattered to deceive for most of his stint under Diego Simeone.

Due to de Paul sometimes receiving whistles from his own supporters and being asked to leave, many Los Colchoneros supporters have begun to wonder why they do not get to see the same player that Argentina does. It has also sparked a lot of allusions to a trip back to Italy during the course of the season.

Juventus are now Fichajes’ top admirers, he claims. This summer, La Vecchia Signora plans to make de Paul their headline acquisition by spending almost €40 million to bring him back to Serie A.

Yet, there are several issues with the report’s timing. Despite a recent muscular problem, De Paul is at one of his best for Atletico Madrid and now seems to be gaining some consistency. Nevertheless, Juventus’ capacity to make significant purchases this summer will be constrained by the possibility of losing out on Champions League football.
