Inter Milan and Juventus have reportedly joined Barcelona and Liverpool in the race to sign wantaway Fiorentina defender Dodo.
This according to today’s print edition of Florence-based newspaper Corriere Fiorentina, via FCInterNews, They report that the 26-year-old would cost a fee of around €25 million.
Fiorentina defender Dodo reportedly wants out of his club this summer.
The Brazilian has come to the end of his third season at Fiorentina. And he feels that he has done all that he can do in Tuscany.
Therefore, Dodo has made no secret of the fact that he is pushing for an exit.
Inter & Juventus Join Barcelona & Liverpool In The Race For Dodo
There would be no shortage of interest in Dodo following his excellent form for Fiorentina.
Spanish champions Barcelona are in search of a right-back. And the former Shakhtar Donetsk man has reportedly come onto the Blaugranas’ radar.
Meanwhile, Corriere Fiorentina also name Premier League champions Liverpool as suitors of Dodo.
But then there is also interest in the 26-year-old closer to home. The Corriere Fiorentino anticipate that two of Serie A’s biggest clubs are also keen.
Inter Milan reportedly see Dodo as a possible target in the event that they lose Denzel Dumfries, who has a release clause of €25 million.
Then, the Corriere Fiorentino report, Juventus are also eyeing up a move.
Dodo would be a great replacement of Dumfries leaves… as long as we can get there first!
banter era player
Have you ever seen him play? He is quality!
yeah, nothing special. Lord Jonathan, Dalbert, Henrique kind of player. maybe some improvement on the other Dodo we had earlier during the banter era.
and why are we buying another right winger/back when we just threw away 25M on Henrique who is going to the bench at best?
What makes you think Henriques a bench player at best? If you are going to judge him after few games at the club world cup, your logic is as shallow as ever. This guy was really good at Marsaille if you haven’t watched.
I was watching him at Marseille, not good enough. testament to the majority of Marseille’s fans wanting him out. they were laughing at how much Inter shelled out for him.
I think we should get rid of 3 back and use Henrique as a winger and Dodo as our fullback.
Currently have 9 centrebacks and 6 wingbacks(wingers).
Palacios on loan.
Leoni for Bisseck.
Sell Vanheusden, Darmian, Acerbi, de Vrij.
Bring Mosquera or Solet as central centreback.
Bring Tomiyasu as free player who can cover all positions in defence (younger Darmian).
Sell Buchanan and older Carboni(with buyback clause).
Sell Dumfries since he wants to leave, bring back Zanotti from Switzerland in his place.
With these players we can play with both 3-4-1-2 or 4-2-3-1 formation, by pushing Luis, Zalewski or even Dimarco forward and playing Zanotti, Tomiyasu, Augusto as fullbacks.
I agree with you in most part except bringing in Tomiyasu. He is free but is shit. Also Solet sounds good but Koni De Winter sounds better.
Mosquera should be option 1, but Solet and de Winter are similar, the only difference is that Solet should be 10-15mil cheaper. As for Tomiyasu, better then Darmian currently, injuries and strong competition at Arsenal got in the way of his development. Considering he’s free and can cover multiple positions in defence, think would be a good rotation player. If he doesn’t work out next season we sell. That’s how we can be good 30mil in + every season. Bring 2-3 rotation players on free transfer every season, some may work out, the rest sell out.
Over the years we lost much money in failing to properly do outgoing transfers. If your first team player contract expires in 2 year, you either extend his contract or sell him outright, cause next year he can leave for cheap like many did. Or for young players, considering contracts are signed for 5 years, first year or 2 send player on loan, than bring him back for season in club, if he shows improvement you extend contract, if not sell imediately. Some of our players were ripe for selling last year or even before, for example de Vrij was ripe 3 years ago to sell
