Bastos and Krasic: Juve, hurry up!
Michel Bastos said he would be happy to come to Juventus, but Marotta has to close the deal with Lyon. So, what is he waiting for? The French club is asking for about 15 million euro, a fair price for an experienced player who is still young (28).
In two years at Lyon the Brazilian winger has scored 15 goals in Ligue 1 and 6 in the Champions League. Numbers that make more than one Juventus attacker tremble. And Bastos is not a striker...
Immagine e Juve with Krasic and the right and the Brazilian on the left. With Conte's game their opponents they will have to worry of both sides. What's more, don't forget that Bastos, as he showed many times in Brazil, is also able to play as a side defender if need be.
But Juventus are perhaps too cautios. As with the attack, Marotta is buying time, with the risk to increase competition. Liverpool are already thinking about it. It would be much better to hurry up...
