JUVE TO MISS OUT ON MUSTAFI

Juventus are unlikely to be successful in their efforts to sign Arsenal centre back Shkodran Mustafi, Sky in Germany understands.

The Serie A club are keen to bring in a centre-back after their captain Giorgio Chiellini suffered a serious knee injury at the weekend.

Juventus had also enquired about Dejan Lovren, Medhi Benatia and Jerome Boateng, but a deal for Mustafi is unlikely to be completed before Serie A’s window closes at 9pm today.

This transfer window would habe been perfect, if he was moved on :(

We need him for squad depth this year, but he is definitely gone once Saliba arrives.

Holding, Bellerin and Tierney are still all injured and have been so for the better part of 12 months.

One injury to Luiz or Sokratis and we'd be relying on him and Chambers to hold up the back line.

We have 5 other defenders:
Sokratis, Luiz, Holding, Chambers and Mavropanos.
We really don't need him.

Got no faith in Mavropanos but Chambers has stepped up at Fulham and in his game back here so I see no reason to keep Mustafi either.

And Tierney can play CB if need be. Really is no reason Mustafi should be here other than the fact no other club is willing to take him on his current salary.

Mavropanos pretty much hasn't played a competitive game since Wenger was our manager. Guarantee he won't make it here. I already addressed the status of the others you mentioned.

Looks like he is more resilient, stubborn and immovable off the pitch.

This "news" article made me laugh. Feels like he has been banished from football almost like Karius was for Liverpool but as a squad player he's going to get some minutes at some point i guess possibly in the Europa or EFL cup games coming up soon.

↑ What a fake picture can do to a gullible and fickle crop of United fans.

Mustafi's real rating on FIFA 20 is 79 - not 83.

He should be a starter in LC, EL and FA Cup games against lower level oppo for sure.
