Following the admission of Juventus President, Andrea Agnelli that Italian football is in a state of decline; one can only wonder what the top clubs in England are thinking with the January transfer window soon approaching.
“Italy is no longer a final destination but a transit destination,” said Agnelli at the Leaders of Football' conference in London on Thursday,
“Look at what happened to AC Milan. They had to give away Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva to pay the cheques.
At the end of the day, you can be attractive. But you also need to have the economic strength.”
As sad as this may be for the neutral lovers of the game, the concerns of the ‘Old Lady’ may throw up some inviting opportunities for the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, Man Utd, Liverpool and Tottenham in the upcoming transfer market.
