Udinese Decrease Demands For Juventus Target Gaetano D'Agostino

It seems that the Friulani are lowering their expectations for their midfielder, despite their initial stance.

Udinese midfielder Gaetano D'Agostino could be a little closer to a Juventus move as yesterday the general director of the Friulani, Sergio Gasparin, revealed that his club now want less than they had initially asked for.

Udinese are now demanding €17 million instead of the initial €20m asking price, which the Old Lady thought was too much to pay for D'Agostino.

This probably means that, despite the Friulani's reluctance to let D'Agostino leave, they are ready to continue negotiations in the coming days.

"With €17m, the deal will be sealed," confirmed the Udinese sporting director to Tuttosport.

This would coincide with D'Agostino's wishes, as he would prefer to start the pre-season training camp with Juventus rather than Udinese.

"It wouldn't make any sense to start the season with Udinese, having my mind at Juventus," he explained.

Udinese start their pre-season on July 6, whereas Juventus will start preparing for the upcoming season on July 9, which means that D’Agostino will be pushing for the deal to go through by the end of this week.
