Even though the Bianconeri signed some of the best football players in Italy, including Federico Chiesa, Dušan Vlahović, Gleison Bremer, and Manuel Locatelli, they were unable to assemble a supporting cast to go with their core. Most of the time, Juventus just throws darts at a map of Europe, signing young players who lack the potential or fit to start for a Scudetto contender or overpaying senior free agents who end up becoming payroll problems.
The summer before, Juventus signed Timothy Weah, an American wide receiver, in yet another intriguing addition. Weah never established himself as a starter at Lille despite his skill and hard effort, so why did Juventus believe he would suddenly be a fantastic fit for them? As expected, Weah has had difficulty securing a defined position at Turin. Even though he occasionally proves to be useful due to his spark and work rate, he lacks quality and influence.
