Spalletti emphasized that the current transfer market is very difficult, but he is still confident in the ability of Juventus' leadership to find a solution for the team. "We know that the market is facing many difficulties, but I always stand side by side with the CEO and directors, constantly discussing to find the best solution for the team," he said.
