Juventus coach Allegri cools Lukaku signing plans

Juventus coach Max Allegri doesn't expect anymore additions.

Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku has been in talks with Juve.

But Allegri says: "I am happy with the squad at my disposal and I doubt any new players will arrive.

“We will start the season with this group, we are covered in every role. The club is vigilant on the market, I don't know what will happen, but I am very happy."

On a fully fit Fede Chiesa, Allegri also said: “You could tell from the first days of training he had different legs. I am happy with him and with everyone, there's a good spirit and we must continue like this.

“I applaud [Dusan] Vlahovic and Chiesa for their efforts helping the defence and pressing, they were well-organised. The two strikers really are the balance of the team and if they are out of position, it's difficult to press effectively."
