原文： Waiting for D’Ago Antonio Labbate on why Juventus and Udinese must agree terms for midfield marvel Gaetano D’Agostino
Juventus want to buy, Udinese want to sell and Gaetano D’Agostino wants to move. Add those three factors together and you can already see the Italian international holding up the Old Lady’s shirt at his official presentation, telling journalists and fans alike that he’s realised a childhood dream.
The reality, though, is rather different. Talks after talks between club officials and the player’s agent have resulted in no agreement, but a war of brinkmanship as the two Serie A sides haggle over a transfer fee that is the only thing that separates D’Agostino from a switch to Turin.
Udinese, as we understand it, want £15m. Juventus, having already spent £22m for Werder Bremen’s Diego, have only offered £8m, after insisting that none of their promising youngsters – Paolo De Ceglie, Claudio Marchisio and Sebastian Giovinco – would be part of the deal.
In these tough and volatile financial times, one can comprehend that each club is after the best deal possible. However, common sense needs to prevail. D’Agostino, on the evidence of his last two campaigns, is worth more than £8m but less than £15m. And both clubs realise this.
We shouldn’t blame Udinese for their over the top demands. After all, they are a buy low and sell high club. Then one must also consider that D’Agostino is a rare breed in Serie A right now, a commodity, a classy deep-lying playmaker who has substance as well as style.
Nevertheless, it’s in everyone’s interests that D’Agostino moves to Juventus, including that of the Italian game. With foreign clubs such as Liverpool sniffing around for the midfielder, Serie A simply can’t afford to lose another of its real talents to a European rival.
It would be an important and significant signing for Juventus too, who after a couple of seasons of spending lavishly on foreign midfield flops – Tiago, Sergio Almiron and Christian Poulsen – are finally ready to buy Italian.
And then there is D’Agostino himself, a player who was scandalously omitted from the Confederations Cup squad last month. With Italy needing some new faces, he must prove himself on the biggest stage available before World Cup 2010. Juventus can offer him that, Udinese can’t.

译文：尤文图斯和乌迪内斯一定会在中场新星加埃塔托.达戈斯蒂诺的转会上达成一致，安东尼奥.拉巴特为您分析其中的原因...
尤文图斯想买，乌迪内斯想卖，而且达戈斯蒂诺也想转会到都灵城。考虑到这三个因素，你或许已经可以想象到这名意大利国脚身批黑白剑条衫参加新闻发布会，并告诉记者和球迷们他实现了自己童年时的梦想的情景了。
尽管如此，但现实情况却大不相同。两家俱乐部高层及经纪人之间的不断谈判却仍然没有达成任何的一致，但可以肯定的是这两家俱乐部在转会费上的讨价还价是达戈斯蒂诺转会到都灵城的唯一障碍了。
就我们所知，乌迪内斯希望得到1500万英镑的转会费。而已经用2200万英镑从云达不莱梅引进了迭戈的尤文图斯却只愿意为达戈斯蒂诺拿出800万英镑，而且是在宣布他们的希望之星---保罗.德.切利，克劳迪奥.马尔基西奥以及塞巴斯蒂安.吉奥文科---不会成为转会筹码之后的情况下。
考虑到上述的情况以及金融危机的大背景下，我们可以理解到两家俱乐部都在试图寻找最完美的解决方案。尽管如此，但站在中立的角度来看，参考过去两个赛季里的表现，达戈斯蒂诺的身价将会超过800万英镑，但会低于1500万英镑。两家俱乐部已经意识到了这点。
我们不应该指责乌迪内斯为达戈斯蒂诺标出如此高的身价的做法，毕竟这家俱乐部的经营理念就是低买高卖。而且我们同样要看到达戈斯蒂诺的确是最近一段时期里意甲赛场上的稀缺球员，一名有价值的，有成为巨星的潜质的球员。
除此之外，几乎所有人都希望看到达戈斯蒂诺能加盟尤文图斯，包括众多意大利球队。因为一些像利物浦这样的外国俱乐部也正在打这名中场球员的主意，而意甲联赛不会愿意看到又一名天才球员流失到自己的欧战劲敌手中。
签下达戈斯蒂诺对尤文图斯来说也是非常重要而且很有意义。在花大价钱引进的多名外国中场球员---蒂亚戈，塞尔吉奥.阿尔梅隆和克里斯蒂安.保尔森---先后经历了失败的命运后，现在老妇人终于准备引进一名意大利球员了。
还有达戈斯蒂诺本人，这名球员竟然没有入选参加上个月联合会杯的意大利国家队大名单。现在蓝衣军团需要更多的新鲜血液，而达戈斯蒂诺必须在2010年世界杯到来之前，在最大的舞台上证明自己的能力。尤文可以为他提供这样的机会，而乌迪内斯却不能。
