Juve, Cobolli: ‘We have achieved our goal of strengthening the squad while maintaining financial balance’

Rome, 11 September (LaPresse) – ‘We have tried to find the right balance between the financial situation we have to deal with, especially considering UEFA's Financial Fair Play, which, as you know, is a particularly fashionable term in Europe and for several clubs.’ These were the words of Juventus CEO Damien Comolli at a press conference taking stock of the Bianconeri club's transfer market. ‘Obviously, we are no different from other clubs, which means that we have to carefully evaluate our finances and, at the same time, try to create a particularly competitive squad. The team is competitive, but we have tried to strengthen the squad, so I think we have managed to do that and find the right balance between the sporting and financial aspects. So we have achieved our goal,’ he added. ‘One of the things we wanted to achieve was to keep the backbone of the team. We have a very competitive team and we weren't comfortable with having to sell some players, which is why we wanted those who arrived to play a key role in the team,’ he continued. "I have read about possible discussions I had with the PSG president, but these reports are completely false. We did not speak; it is all lies. I have always been a big supporter of the big clubs, with whom I have always had an excellent relationship. I can tell you that we have concluded the transfer window successfully and feel stronger. We have kept the players we wanted to keep, in addition to the new arrivals. One example is Vlahovic, who has unique abilities for Serie A, as he has already demonstrated," he concluded.
