More nonsense from Italian media, I give it a week or two before Juve turn their heads elsewhere. 
Should cover the Locatelli deal, surely? Oh well, we tried.
Onto Neves.
United?
Maybe Liverpool think they need midfielders
Practically given him away for nothing until 2023

Sassuolo bent over and pegged hard by the old lady

We would have paid more than that up front, let alone after a 2 year delay.
His contract doesnāt even expire until 2023, if Iām Sassuolo Iād tell him he can either go to Arsenal for the bigger fee now, or he stays for another year and gets the transfer next year.
They get to keep their best player for another year and theyād still get a fairly sizable fee for him next year. Either that or it forces Juve to provide a more reasonable offer for him.
Canāt they technically ābankā the money in their books now though?
Which my help them balance their accounts after COVID even the cash transfer wonāt happen until 2023?
Why do I feel heāll flop? Has all the signs of that move thatās perfect on paper but doesnāt actually translate as well.

This deal or whatever you want to call it has corruption written all over it.
How is a club willing to refuse 30 40m and opt for a two year loan instead.

They never refused Arsenalās offer, the player wasnāt interested in Arsenal. Juventus donāt have the money to pay for the move now so much like Chiesa, itās a multiple year loan with an obligation to buy.
Itās essentially a transfer with a 2 year payment holiday. Sassuolo will get their money regardless and Juventus donāt have to take a hit on the accounts.

Another case of the player having all the cards.
If this was the NBA, Locatelli wouldāve found his ass traded to Brescia.

I didnāt say that they refused Arsenalās offer or other offers for that matter. Iām saying they could have shifted him easily for 30-40m but instead, they bend over for the playerās demands and do this corrupt/shit deal with Juve.
The player didnāt want to go anywhere but Juventus of the clubs that were actually interested in him so Sassuolo had no options. Sell him for a guaranteed ā¬35m or hold onto him and hope to get better offers in the future
Is there any evidence that theyāre getting no money now?
Teams normally pay something for loans surely?
Theyāre surely paying something but knowing Serie A thatās probably deferred too
