JUVENTUS WILL TRY IN JANUARY TO BUY IVAN RAKITIC FROM BARCELONA.

The Italian giants Juventus, also called THE OLD LADY OF TURIN, tried very hard to buy the Croatian midfielder Ivan Rakitic from Barcelona, on the last day of the summer transfer window , but failed to finalise that deal. Juventus will make another attempt to buy Ivan Rakitic in the January transfer window. Ivan Rakitic had joined Barcelona from Seville in the year 2014, but now he is 31 , thirty one years old and his place is threatened by the two young but highly talented youngsters Arthur Melo, the Brazilian and the Dutch youngster Frenkie De Jong. At first he was not to keen to leave Barcelona, as he recently had purchased a beach property in Spain. But now he will be going in January for sure.
