Net of the situation yet to be defined for Kostic (who still acts in another role) and waiting for Paredes (the favorite to reinforce the median), the Juventus is preparing to face Sassuolo in the league with many injuries, Pogba and McKennie above all, and the heavy disqualifications of Rabiot and Kean. That’s why the Juventus midfield at the first in Serie A will be experimental and already yesterday in Villar Perosa we had a taste of it: Zakaria, Locatelli in front of the defense in the control room and from the left midfielder Fagioli. The young talent, last season on loan to Cremonese, has just returned from a good tour in the United States and is applying for the position as a starter.

Meanwhile Fagioli’s agents work to settle the contractual situation: yesterday there was a contact with the Juventus management to take a further step towards the renewal, with an agreement until 2026 and a rounding up on the salary. The idea of the entourage is that the renewal can go hand in hand with greater use or at least the guarantee of entering the Allegri rotations. Beans he is gaining the trust of the Livorno coach who in fact has always opposed the loan until now and certainly in this first phase of the season his presence is essential.
