Despite their interest and the frequent links, Juventus aren’t close to snapping up Felipe Anderson on a Bosman deal. Lazio’s chances of keeping ahold of their winger are rapidly increasing. The Bianconeri touched base with his camp lately. They didn’t match his contractual request either, Calciomercato informed.
Directors Cristiano Giuntoli and Giovanni Manna talked with his sister and agent Juliana Gomes. The attacker asks for a four-year contract with €4M wages. The Old Lady stopped at a two/three-year one with an option and a €2.5/3M salary.
Juventus like Felipe Anderson, but only if he’s a bargain. All the signings of their new course have been a lot younger, while he’s 31. At this stage, they aren’t planning to improve their proposal, which gives Lazio an opening to come to terms if they push the envelope.
The Biancocelesti have tendered to raise his wages from €2.2M to €3.5M until either 2027 or 2028. It’ll be a big investment since the gross cost would go way up, from €2.9M to €6M annually due to the suppression of the ‘Decreto Crescita.’
Our Take on Felipe Anderson, Lazio, and Juventus
It’s funny how often things that seem headed in a certain direction take a steep turn when the details emerge. The Bianconeri, which don’t use wingers presently, are only doing their due diligence and considering a flier on a steady veteran. If he doesn’t take his current team’s offer, he’ll probably head to exotic leagues for a final payday.
