Leipzig and Stuttgart also like the 2004 attacking midfielder. The Juventus club has decided to strengthen monitoring of the player and to attempt the attack in the summer, when his contract expires
Juventus working on the summer transfer market and keeping their eyes on Spain: in recent weeks Juventus scouts have been spotted in Valladolid. And they were not the only Italians: the collaborators sent by Ottolini had to share the place in the stands with their colleagues from Como, who were writing on the same objective. The clubs are studying the profile of Ivan San José Cantalejo, known as Chuki, a 2004 attacking midfielder who has already raised antennas around Europe. Interesting profile, young but already quite introduced into the circle of footballers who could take center stage in the future. This year he has already scored 7 goals and 7 assists in the Segunda Division, but precisely because of his qualities he quickly attracted the attention of many: Leipzig and Stuttgart have already made moves.
JUVE PRESTIGE

Fabregas also expressed his opinion on Chuki, who believes he is in line with the market made so far by his club: he is young, has quality, vision of the game and still has ample room for improvement. All this made the light bulb light up for Juve too, which would give him the chance to immediately enter the ranks of the top historic clubs. Ottolini can spend Juve’s prestige in his favour, but will then have to deal with the economic side: the priorities at Continassa are many, so the margins for making an investment with few guarantees are quite limited. The advantage on this operation derives from the player’s contractual situation, which expires in June; but it will be necessary to understand how far he will have to go with the proposal relating to the salary due to the competition.
COMPETITION COMO

Evaluations underway at Juventus. Chuki appears to be an opportunity worth seizing, especially if his arrival can be achieved with some transfers. Among the main candidates to leave Continassa in the summer is Adzic, looking for a club that can enhance him by giving him more space. The work that Como is carrying out in parallel, however, should not be underestimated, also because the results are continually improving and the influence of their coach on the Spanish players is always very effective. Furthermore, like Stuttgart and Leipzig, Como offers a less demanding context in the search for results. However, Juve has decided to strengthen monitoring of the player and to attempt the attack in the summer.
