Juventus rebuilding after European defeat with Khedira capture

Having just secured the capturing of Khedira from Los Blancos, as well as signing former Madrid marksman Alvaro Morata from the Spanish capital club last year, close connections have been built between these sides.

In a possible transfer ploy, both former Bernabeu players could have been used as potential sweeteners to help soften a future bid for Juventus’ sought-after star attraction Pogba, with a definite space opening up in their ranks with the recent departure of Khedira.

Madrid’s El Clasico rivals Barca are also keen on reaching an agreement for French maestro Pogba, with PSG also clinging to hope the 22-year-old will choose to return to his home country, while Manchester City are desperately hoping to lay the boot into his former club and rivals United with his signature (3/1).

Deep lying Italian playmaker Pirlo was unable to fight back the tears after missing out on a third career Champions League triumph, having won twice with AC Milan in 2003 and 2007, but he has been repeatedly touted for a move to the MLS to join the likes of Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard.

However, managing to retain the services of both Pogba and Pirlo; coupled with the astute arrival of Khedira, and the Turin titans’ midfield ranks will look extremely healthy, despite signing each of this talented trio for free.

Khedira’s performances at the World Cup in Brazil last year showed that the towering holding midfielder is still capable of dominating the central positions, as he helped guide Germany to international dominance, and played an integral part in that famous 7-1 demolition over the hosts, even scoring himself.

With a host of silverware success already in his impressive career for club and country, including Champions League, Bundesliga, La Liga and World Cup titles, Khedira’s arrival in Turin could signal the assembling of a new-look Juventus outfit, or simply just an improvement on the current European finalists’ talented ranks.
