Um but you have this kind of curious case, and it's not just at Juventus, of players that Italian clubs have sent on loans somewhere else, usually to the Premier League, and they have crossed their fingers and hoped the Premier League clubs would buy those players.
And it hasn't happened.
So you've got loads of players who have presumably
In their heads, thought their careers at these Italian clubs have finished and they're back here.
Um and yeah, that's true of yeah, people at Milan like Chuckwaese.
Um it's true of Pavad at Inter.
Um at Juve, you can go back to McKenny going on a loan at Leeds and then coming back and being their best player for the first half of last season and signing a new deal.
Um and
Yeah, there are lots and lots of examples which kind of show that I think one of the reasons why some of these leagues are suffering is not only because the Premier League is so much richer than they are, it's because this summer feels like it's different in that Premier League clubs bought from each other rather than buying from from these clubs.
So they're like, Yeah, we're just gonna
We've we've we've ordered these players from you.
We haven't liked what we've seen and we're returning them to sender.
Um but Colomwane, you know, d uh at Tottenham I mean Spoletti kind of buried him on match day one after the game against Frosinoni where he said, Yeah, if this guy um hasn't scored or done well for the last two years, there must be a reason.
Well, I mean, Spiletti said he was produce well, he was given a list of players that the club had decided to target.
Right.
Um, and he was like, Okay then, whatever.
Um and
I think Juve have been quite limited in what they could do because of these financial fair play parameters that have been put on put on them.
Um but at the same time, it's quite expensive deal for them to do to sign a player that their coach doesn't seem entirely convinced about.
Um a lot of the players that they've signed for that position over the last few years just haven't worked out.
