A look at Cristiano Giuntoli's new role as Juventus' sporting director after leaving Napoli

www.dailymail.co.uk, July 8, 2023
Cristiano Giuntoli departed Naples and returned to Turin for two reasons. The first was a desire to lead Italy's most important team, which his family is devoted to. The second was fear of losing the Scudetto with Napoli. The 51-year-old's Napoli's retirement was silent but significant for the Serie A champions, who needed to keep the Giuntoli brand with the fans. A Scudetto in Naples is the equivalent of five league titles at AC Milan or Juventus, and it was made even more impressive by the way it was obtained.

WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY! Sportmail examines the worst transfers in Premier League history

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 11, 2023
With Leeds United's total outlay for Jean-Kevin Augustin down to £40 million in exchange for just 48 minutes of service, the striker could now be the lowest signing in English football. In 2020, Augustin made only three replacement appearances for Leeds, after the club argued that the Covid-19 pandemic had negated the club's promise to buy the player from Red Bull Leipzig, resulting in a postponement of the season's conclusion. Leeds, on the other hand, lost their case at the Court of Arbitration for Sport and later reached a compromise with Leipzig worth £15.5 million. The legal proceedings did not conclude there, and a FIFA panel has ordered Augustin £24.5 million for breach of contract this week. Leeds is considering an appeal.

Liverpool's season is short, frustrating, and forgettable:

AADAM PATEL: It was telling, not just in Jurgen Klopp's words, but also in his demeanour, when he said there will be no big movies in this season and that "we must go through it anyway." I'm still mourning Trent Alexander-Arnold's reaction after his goalbound free-kick crashed into Jordan Henderson, and the full back struded off in the second half without the usual hug from his boss. And telling them in the way Liverpool's players talked afterwards. The last train from Euston to Liverpool on Saturday was 8.37 p.m., eight minutes before kick-off, and you would not have missed much if you caught it. 'It's not simple, let's keep it that way,' Virgil van Dijk said. We're spoilt with what we've been going through for the past four or five years.'
