A suspenseful end to the season awaits Juventus Turin, currently 4th in Serie A, still in the running for a qualifying place for the Champions League. But to listen to the managing director of the Old Lady, the Frenchman, Damien Comolli, the summer transfer window will be ambitious whatever happens. “I think our transfer window will be ambitious, whatever our final ranking: we are aiming for fourth place, but we can do better. The Serie A standings are so tight that we are focusing on ourselves and the teams ahead and behind us: we are very ambitious for the last six games. We know that Juventus attracts a lot of players, and the ones we talk to don’t just say they are interested in Juventus, they really want to play there, without knowing if we will be in the Champions League or the Europa League next season. Financially, the Champions League is much more advantageous than the Europa League, but in terms of ambition, it doesn’t matter what European competition is: we will be very ambitious to build a team that will be successful in the future.”he declared, on the sidelines of Juventus’ open-to-all training session.

He also mentioned the case of Dusan Vlahovic, the Serbian striker, who reaches the end of his contract in June. “I stand by what I said from the beginning about Dusan. I said we would talk about it at the end of the season. I’ve said this from the start, so don’t expect anything from now until then. There are six weeks left, and I know Marco Ottolini has been in contact with Dusan, but we shouldn’t expect anything before the end of the season. We hope to have good news regarding the contract extension of other players soon. » While he seemed to be leaving, the 26-year-old Serbian striker could finally extend for a short period with the Turin club.
