Juventus has flaws, there is a need for signings in the winter window, Kostic welcomes the dawn, Vlahovic should renew his contract

The breeze in Turin gently blew the Allianz Arena, and Juventus, who was on short vacation, did not stop changing. The lineup flaws are still obvious, especially the weak position of the right back, which has made the management a key task to signing players in the winter window. As the new season progresses, Juventus is in a quiet change. Although the performance at the beginning was acceptable, the shortcomings in the lineup structure were still obvious - especially the lack of depth and stability in the right back position. Teammate Fabiana Della Valle, a team reporter, revealed in the live broadcast that the club has focused on the winter transfer window on the reinforcement right, and Marseille's Klaus is the popular candidate.

01 The weakness of the right side: Juventus' winter window is imminent

For Juventus, the right-back position has always been a weak link. As the season progressed, the team's performance in this position was unsatisfactory, resulting in multiple mistakes and loss of opportunities. Sister Pink mentioned that Juventus hopes to find a player who can cover the entire wing, and Klaus is the ideal candidate to meet this criteria. Klaus is 32 years old and currently plays in Ligue 1 Marseille, known for his ability to cover the entire right.

He is competent for the traditional right-back position and can also serve as a wingback in the three-center-back system, providing the team with support on both offense and defense. Last season, he contributed his stable crossing and key opportunity creation ability in Ligue 1, and is the engine of Marseille's wing. For Juventus, such an experienced and distinctive player can undoubtedly quickly improve his competitiveness on the right.

02 Turning waste into treasure: Costic's unexpected rebirth

The story of Costic can be called a reversal. He is considered an old "redundant" and has been sent away for two consecutive seasons and is now staying as a substitute this year. Unexpectedly, it was a coincidence to achieve good results. In Juventus' 1-0 away victory over Genoa, it was the goal link that Kostic and Vlahovic completed. Costic benefited from a successful system in Frankfurt and is actually a wingback with good footing skills. The goal came from the corner kick he took - the left corner kick opened with his left foot, and an external rotation line was added to the requirement for footwork. When it comes to set pieces alone, Kostic is worthy of being a top player in the team. His rebirth experience proves that in the world of football, today's "redundant staff" may become tomorrow's heroes.

03 Vlahovic: From "high salary and low energy" to substitute surprise

Vlahovic has undergone a more dramatic transformation. In order to send off the high-paid "low-energy" player who earned 12 million yuan after tax in the last year, Juventus management racked their brains. Helplessly, Vlahovic did not get in. The price of termination of the contract was too high, and the price of sending the other party was too low. Later, he simply refused and decided to get the most generous "loyalty bonus" in history. As a result, he made a substitute twice in two games, and Vlahovic became the most efficient player in the team, surpassing the most important new player Jonathan David this summer. The Serbian striker showed amazing efficiency in limited time. In just 18 minutes, he lost the ball 10 times. According to this ratio, he had to lose the ball 50 times in 90 minutes - a shocking number.

04 The opportunity to renew the contract: The future of Vlahovic is bright

Just as people are speculating about Vlahovic's future, unexpected news comes from Turin: the possibility of Duchamp Vlahovic's contract renewal is being opened again. According to team reporter Albanese, the Serbian center has never taken the initiative to leave the team, and it is not even ruled out that the salary conditions have been reduced to renew the contract with the club. Vlahovic's value is much more than goals. He is Juventus's only fulcrum center in the frontcourt, and his tactical role is irreplaceable. Although they had previously been in a deadlock for contract renewal due to their salary structure and team performance, the two sides have always maintained communication channels.

The players now send out a signal of concession, reflecting his sense of identity with the team and his pragmatic attitude towards career planning. For Juventus, the successful renewal of Vlahovic has three meanings: maintaining the offensive core in competition, avoiding free loss of assets financially, and stabilizing the morale of the army in the locker room. Especially in the context of missing the Champions League and budget tightening, retaining core players is more rational than betting on new players. Whether Klaus can join Juventus will need time to verify, but the Zebras' right offense and defense does require fresh blood injection. The story of "turning waste into treasure" between two Serbian players, Kostic and Vlahovic, has provided the team with unexpected tactical choices. Vlahovic's possible contract extension will lay a solid foundation for Juventus' offensive system in the next three years. In that black and white stripes, change has begun.
