Juraj Kucka in Parma B +
After finishing the first half of the season closer to a place in the Europa League than the relegation zone, Parma did not rest on its laurels during the January window. After the brilliant addition of Gervinho, the newly promoted club decided to bring Kucka back to Italy to give more strength to the D'Aversa midfielder. The Slovak international has six years of experience in Serie A and can also be an important player for Parma next season.
Krzyzsztof Piatek in Milan B
True, the size of the sample is very small, but the rossoneri look like a different team since the departure of Gonzalo Higuain. Gattuso's team seemed much smoother in both games against Genoa and Napoli and it is certainly possible that the players are much looser now that all questions about the future of the Pipita are over.
Piatek's annual salary represents about a quarter of what Higuain was earning and, given the poverty of the Argentine striker in recent weeks, the drop (if any) should not be very significant, especially if Piatek continues to play as he did before. the last twenty minutes of the match against Naples.
Although Milan could not include any player in the deal for Genoa, he showed great financial strength by paying the transfer fee of 35 million euros in one lump sum. After Paqueta, Milan has now added another player in his early twenties to his new kernel, but he is still legitimate to claim a spot in the Champions League, while baduring a team with a lot of potential for next season.
However, there are two issues to be resolved as a result of this transaction: what about Milan as Bonucci and Higuain, two players good enough to be part of an elite team like Juventus? that they both wanted to leave so early? Are Cutrone and Piatek compatible or mutually exclusive?
For Genoa, the Piatek affair is a financial affair. They made a profit of 30 million euros on a player they had acquired last summer and, selling it quickly, they had no Belotti as regrets in case he could not pursue his impressive series of goals in the first half of the month. the season. But they are also losing a key player while remaining in the middle of the relegation race. They will need Kouame to lead the line and hope that Sanabria will quickly adapt to Serie A.
Stefano Sturaro in Genoa C +
The Preziosi club is known for its great activity in January, and this year was no exception. In addition to Sanabria and defender Pezzela arrived from Udinese, they also brought back a loan of 1.5 million euros to Sturaro, with a purchase option acquired for 8.5 million euros. euros. Although the Italian international has never met the expectations of Juventus, he should bring a little more strength to the Prandelli midfielder.
The Sturaro agreement is part of a broader perspective between the two clubs, Juventus had already acquired Mattia Perin and was clearly the favorite of the center of the field, Cristian Romero, one of the revelations of the Serie A season, the next summer.
Martin Caceres at Juventus C-
Speaking of the defenders of Juventus, the Uruguayan international returned to Turin after two club stays. Although Caceres knows what to expect with the bianconeri, it can not be denied that he enjoys a significant demotion of Mehdi Benatia, the player he will help replace at this stage of his career.
While some expected that the player's policy of respect for the will ends with the departure of Beppe Marotta, Juventus did not force Benatia to stay after receiving a rich offer from Qatar. While the Moroccan international was subject to injury and had a reduced role after the return of Leonardo Bonucci, he was arguably Allegri's best pure defender after Giorgio Chiellini and so was a valuable piece of the pursuit enigma by Juventus of the elusive cup of the Champions League.
The transfer of Benatia is a great opportunity for Daniele Rugani, a player who has usually started against the teams of the lower table of Serie A this season. It will be interesting to see if Allegri trusts him for a great match against Barzagli (who is recovering from an injury) and the newcomer, Caceres, whether Chiellini or Bonucci were to get hurt.
Cedric Soares at Inter B
After Sime Vrsaljko's injury (and disappointing first half of the season), Nerazzurri acted quickly to give Luciano Spalletti a new start. Soares arrived from Southampton with a loan of $ 500,000 with a purchase option worth 11 million euros, much cheaper than what would have been paid to it. Atletico Madrid to keep Vrsaljko permanently.
Soares was chosen over Joao Cancelo to play for Portugal at the last World Cup and, as reported by Gazzetta dello Sport, no player had more centers than him in the Premier League during the last four seasons.
