According to the latest report from the authoritative Italian sports media Gazzetta dello Sport, the interest of English Premier League team Bournemouth in Juventus midfielder Locatelli has been confirmed to be untrue. Previously, some British media had speculated that Bournemouth was interested in bringing in the Italian international, but La Gazzetta dello Sport made it clear that Locatelli was not a target for Bournemouth and that he would remain at Juventus.
New Juventus manager Juan Motta spoke highly of Locatelli and made it clear that he is not on the team's purge list. Although Locatelli has had his ups and downs over the past few seasons, Motta sees the potential and value in him and wants to reactivate his best form in the new season. This decision certainly adds more stability and possibilities to Juventus' midfield.
Looking back at last season, Locatelli's performance at Juventus is still impressive. He played a total of 40 official matches for the team, in which he made 38 starts, scoring one goal and contributing six assists. These figures not only show his all-round ability, but also prove his important position in the team. In addition, Locatelli's contract with Juventus will run until 2028, and he is currently valued at €28 million on the German transfer market, which further reflects his market value and potential.
With the arrival of Motta and the restructuring of the squad, Juventus is moving towards new goals. As a key member of the team, Locatelli will play a more important role in the new season. Fans are also looking forward to his performance. I believe that under the guidance of Motta, Locatelli will be able to find his best form and bring more victories and honors to Juventus.
