There are many champions who in nine months, if they do not renew, will change their shirt or will even stay without playing
On the captain’s armband there is the expiration date: June 30, 2022. Not even it was yogurt or milk. Yet the precious content, perhaps in some cases a little stale but still important, useful, appreciated. the new transfer market trend: there are many champions who will be without a contract in nine months. The curious, or perhaps disturbing, aspect that among them there are many symbols, even almost all the captains of the great teams: the Juventus player Dybala
(actually Chiellini’s deputy, who has almost never been a starter, so far only 3 times in 9 matches), the AC Milan player Romagnoli, the interista Handanovic, the Neapolitan Badge, the Turinist Belotti. And Pellegrini, crowned leader of Rome by Mourinho, was in the same situation until a few days ago, when he extended for 5 years. Why are they all hanging from a signature? And – above all – how will their stories end?
Covid has changed the market, especially for players at the end of the contract and already in negotiations to renew it. The world has stopped and, of course, the companies have also stopped: before deciding whether to go forward with high wages, it is better to do the math (which were not thriving before the pandemic). So we got close to the expiration dates and the tug of war became hard, exhausting, in some cases terribly tense. On the one hand, the requests of the samples, some quite expensive (Dybala initially demanded 15 million net per season, he wanted to be the highest paid Juventus player after Ronaldo); on the other, the doubts and fears of the presidents. The captains have also been questioned. And now the agents are rubbing their hands, because they are confident of getting high wages elsewhere and – by moving their clients for free – to obtain multimillion-dollar commissions. The band was a value for me, now it isn’t: everyone is fighting for better contracts, bitter notes Dino Zoff, who was captain of Juve and of the world champion national team in 1982. That important role should be assigned not on the basis of the number of appearances but on the personality, the ability to transmit principles to his teammates, the ability to confront the referee . I see rugby and it seems to me that everything is different, I am really at the forefront of sporting behavior.
It will be hot months for the captains, their agents, the clubs. Dybala, after an exhausting negotiation, will renew with Juve: he will not be the player with the best salary, now that he is gone CR7, but will approach 10 million (including bonuses) and remain second only to De Ligt. in the balance Romagnoli, captain – and often bench player – of Milan: the farewell seemed certain, Lazio ready to welcome him, but in recent weeks there has been an improvement. If nothing else, the Rossoneri have armored the deputy, Calabria, who replaced Donnarumma, often honored by the band last season and then fled away. There are no certainties even about Handanovic’s renewal with Inter: he became captain after Icardi was demoted, he could be let free. For the deputy, Brozovic, open and complicated negotiations: an important meeting is expected in the next few hours. The Insigne story is fiery, because the discussion between De Laurentiis and his agent is struggling to take off: Lorenzo is interested in Italian (including Inter) and foreign clubs. As well as complicated the situation of Belotti, who received a decidedly relevant proposal from Turin but fascinated by Milan. Zoff is not surprised: today’s football. In my day, the band really mattered. Like in rugby.
