With the exits of Paul Pogba and Nicolo Fagioli, the Bianconeri are in the process of selecting their next midfield player. Although Phillips and Hojbjerg are on Juventus' list of possible targets, Capello recommends taking a different tack.He suggests that the Black and Whites concentrate on Domenico Berardi of Sassuolo, pointing out that the striker is one of the best in the league and has the inventiveness Juventus needs to expose other teams.
Football Italia cited the coach as saying: "Højbjerg and Phillips are both excellent midfield players in my opinion. But Berardi is the inventive player Allegri lacks. If your movements are fluid, Domenico will make the ideal pass. He would be an asset to Juventus because of his passes, which are swift and dangerous rather than sluggish. He would combine with Federico Chiesa and Dusan Vlahovic to form a potent attacking three.
