Juventus transfer market, here is Boteli, the new Lukaku. Adzic shot

Juventus, Adzic and Boteli transfer market

Juventus looks to the future. In the meantime, he has booked a talent that many swear by, the 2006-born Vasilije Adzic (for June), starting midfielder/attacker in Buducnost Podgorica. “Adzo it's the best thing we've seen in Montenegrin football in fifteen years.

What's more: the boy also has good dribbling in tight spaces as well as knowing how to defend the ball as a center forward.

Winsley Boteli and Juventus have already crossed paths: last spring, Ajax organized a tournament to which Juventus and Borussia Moenchengladbach were invited, as well as PSG. It ended with him being the top scorer and him scoring in the 4-2 win over the Bianconeri (as well as earning himself a penalty and scoring another goal). And that shirt could become his in the future. Giuntoli and his staff are at work…
