Spalletti has summed up the summer recruitment. The Juventus coach commented on the summer transfer window: "There's no such thing as a perfect transfer market anymore, only adequate ones. Our sporting director did an excellent job intervening at the right moment and adapting quickly to the conditions the market offered us. The entire process took a long time, and several aspects were difficult, because you don't have the chance to choose and recruit the players you want from the start."

Mateo Retegui

Speaking about the new signing from Newcastle United, Spalletti also offered his assessment: "Normally, a player with his physical condition and height is more of a pure finisher than a striker who's closely involved with the team—more of a penalty-box poacher. But he's excellent at dropping deep to participate in build-up play. He has strong physical presence, so headers and penalty-box finishing must naturally be part of his game, but he genuinely enjoys being involved in the team's passing moves. He's physically strong, and he's been smiling since I met him—he's very happy to be here, which is already very important."

The Impact of Yıldız and Thuram's Absences

Spalletti isn't making excuses, but he emphasized: "They need to be considered alongside the players we recruited this summer, because these are significant losses that will limit what we've built. Yıldız, frankly, is the strongest player we have. We're welcoming him back with open arms and delighted that his surgery was successful. Khephren's situation was somewhat unexpected for us—we initially thought we'd created the conditions for him to fully unleash all his abilities, and he has qualities that are rare to find in other players."

Vicario's Dream and Juventus

The Juventus goalkeeper also spoke about his first days in Turin: "If I said everything feels normal, I'd be lying. Wearing the Juventus jersey is an honor and a privilege that's almost too great—a feeling difficult to put into words. I always wanted to come here, but I couldn't control the transfer market timing. I completed preseason preparation without friendly matches while waiting for the transfer to happen. I was waiting for Juventus, but I never felt like a backup. If I'm here, it's because the club and coach chose me and wanted me to come. That was my goal, and I've achieved it—everything else is just noise. Juventus means more to me than the Premier League! Winning with this jersey will be the greatest satisfaction, and the weight of victories will be heavier than anywhere else."
