DBasia.news – Juventus continue their policy of recruiting players for free, aka free transfer (no club). Every season there are always free players who come to Turin.
Interestingly, the free players don’t just mean they have poor quality. In fact, some of them can directly influence Juventus.
Call it Andrea Pirlo who immediately offered the Scudetto to Juventus. Or Paul Pogba who became the Bianconeri’s most expensive sale to date.
You could say, almost no free players with poor quality arrived at Juventus. In the 2018-2019 season alone, they got Emre Can from Liverpool for free.
In the summer of 2019, Juventus increase their level in finding players without issuing transfer funds. If previously only one is free with quality, now they bring two at a time!
On Monday (1/7), Juventus announced two recruits at once, Aaron Ramsey and Adrien Rabiot. Interestingly, the two players were positioned as midfielders who were often called the most problematic last season.
Amazingly, Juventus do not need to spend funds to recruit Aaron Ramsey and Adrien Rabiot. That is, La Vecchia Signora fixed the problems of the previous season for free.
Aaron Ramsey signed a four-season contract with Juventus. With I Bianconeri, Ramsey is the highest paid British player in the world.
Meanwhile, Adrien Rabiot also has a four-year contract at Allianz Stadium. Rabiot received the same salary as Aaron Ramsey, 7 million euros per season.
The interesting side starts after this. With abundant midfield material after the arrival of Aaron Ramsey and Adrien Rabiot, how did Maurizio Sarri concoct the Juventus midfield lineup?
Currently, Juventus have first class midfield material in Aaron Ramsey, Adrien Rabiot, Miralem Pjanic, Rodrigo Bentancur, Blaise Matuidi, Sami Khedira, and Emre Can.
With such midfielders, Aaron Ramsey and Adrien Rabiot can play together if Maurizio Sarri uses a 4-3-1-2 scheme. In that formation, Ramsey will carry out the role of attack regulator.
Not a pure Italian trequartista, but as an attacking midfielder in general. Ramsey can undergo this role, proven in Wales national team.
Meanwhile, in a 4-3-1-2 formation, Adrien Rabiot will be one of three central midfielders. However, Rabiot will be given the task of focusing on helping the attack.
Adrien Rabiot’s ability to attack and defend as well can be the key here. In the scheme, Rabiot is likely to be accompanied by Emre Can and Miralem Pjanic.
The second possibility is the use of Maurizio Sarri’s favorite 4-3-3 scheme. In this scheme, several possibilities can occur in Juventus midfield.
However, most likely Adrien Rabiot and Aaron Ramsey will appear as starters. One of Miralem Pjanic or Emre Can will accompany both of them.
It is worth looking forward to, what are the effects of the arrival of Adrien Rabiot and Aaron Ramsey for the Juventus midfield? Can Maurizio Sarri maximize the talent of the Bianconeri midfielder?
