Zirkzee, Juve after flirting with Milan? The previous Tevez

Two different films, with similar plots, an actor in common and a perhaps identical conclusion. After touching the Milan in estate, Joshua Zirkzee ended up in the crosshairs of Juvewho is studying the attack in view of the next transfer sessions. His story closely resembles that of Carlos Tevezwho ended up with the Bianconeri over a decade ago after failing to move to the Rossoneri. The thread that links the two businesses? Kia Shoes. The Dutchman’s agent, the same as the Apache.

Juve on Zirkzee

The context is known at Juve: the club is looking for a striker capable of taking over Vlahovicto divide the weight of a department that sees Milik as the only alternative. Zirkzee he is a player who is popular for his characteristics as an attack director, as a “nine and a half” who is good at enhancing the skills of teammates such as Yildiz, Gonzalez and Conceicao, arrows on the wing who are skilled at insertions. Furthermore, after being very close to Milan in the summer (the deal fell through due to an excessive request on commissions), the Dutchman is not experiencing a positive period at the Manchester United (4 goals in 27 appearances) and would gladly return to Italy. Even more so to work with a coach he knows and respects like Thiago Motta, with whom he got along very well at Bologna.

Close to Milan, like Tevez

Should the Turin proposal materialize (and a lot depends on Manchester United being open to a loan), the film would not be new. There is already a similar precedent, well remembered by the fans Milan and of Juve. Jump back to January 2012, with Carlos Tevez protagonist of the plot. The Argentine was playing for City at that time and was followed by Milan, one step away from the coup as demonstrated by famous photo of the attacker with his agent Kia Joorabchian and Adriano Gallianiformer CEO of Milan. All together, for lunch, in a restaurant in Rio de Janeiro. The context sees Milan working simultaneously on the sale of Pato to PSG, but in the end president Silvio Berlusconi says “No” and the parallel negotiation between Milan and City for Tevez also ends. No deal, one centimeter from the finish line. Galliani tries again a year later, but it’s late: Tevez has already reached an agreement with Juve and is preparing for his adventure in black and white. The same one that Zirkzee could live, Red Devils permitting.
