Although the club is unlikely to pull off a spectacular winter transfer session reminiscent of last season, Juventus could still bolster their ranks with a new right-back who can rotate in Juan Cuadrado.
Max Allegri had to rely heavily on the Colombian veteran who had no genuine endorsements, especially in the 3-5-2 lineup.
Naturally, the extra shifts hit the aging La Vespa, who have been unable to produce their best football this season, prompting the club to look for an alternative on the market.
Prior to the winter break, Rick Karsdorp had been on a collision course with his manager José Mourinho, with the latter publicly inviting him to leave the club in a post-match outburst of anger (albeit without naming him).
Naturally, the Dutchman landed on Federico Cherubini’s shortlist. But how much would the Old Lady’s coffers cost?
According to Sky Sport via TuttoJuve, Roma want at least 10 million euros for the services of their castaway.
Although the Giallorossi hope to part ways with the fullback this January, they do not intend to give the Bianconeri, or any other suitor, a reduced price.
Karsdorp joined Roma in 2017 but initially struggled to make his mark in the Italian capital. In 2020, he returned to the Eternal City after a loan spell at his original club, Feyenoord, eventually establishing himself as a regular starter.
The 27-year-old has a contract with Roma until 2025.
