Goal are reporting that although Juventus’ interest in PSG midfielder Leandro Paredes (28) is genuine, the Italian club must first part ways with a few elements of their stacked midfield before making a move. 

Argentinian midfielder Paredes has reportedly been reticent to a move in the past. However, that is no longer the case. He is aware of the need to move in order to ensure more playing time, especially ahead of the World Cup this winter, and he is willing to leave to Parce des Princes this summer in order to obtain it. 

Juventus are a serious option and Paredes himself would be open to the move, according to Goal. However, there is a need for outgoings at the Bianconeri before any concrete move for Paredes can be made. Of their 10 midfield options, Juventus are looking to offload Aaron Ramsey and Arthur, whilst Adrien Rabiot’s departure is also a possibility. The French midfielder only has a year left on his contract and didn’t attend the club’s pre-season tour of Japan. 

Paredes would cost Juventus for approximately €20m and is on the list of “undesirables” at PSG.

Lance Stroll scored in Australia his best result of the season with Aston Martin, but the good fortune from which he benefitted late in the race wasn’t lost on the Canadian.

Stroll was caught up in the commotion and chaos of the second restart and almost the fruits of an entire afternoon of good racing.

Stroll had spent the bulk of his race in sixth position, three spots behind teammate Fernando Alonso, and that looked like where he would conclude his trip to Australia.

However, an off by Haas’ Kevin Magnussen in the closing stages of the race triggered the second red flag of the day.

But on the restart it all went wrong for Team Silverstone, with Alonso punted out of third by Carlos Sainz’s Ferrari on the exit of the first corner while Stroll made a mess of his braking into Turn 3 and slid into the gravel trap.

However, a third red flag was brandished, courtesy of Alpine’s drivers coming together with fracas, and it saved Aston’s day, as the order for the final procession lap behind the safety car relied on the previous start, minus the cars that had been eliminated in the chaos.

Alonso was this reassigned to third while Stroll advanced to fifth on the road, thanks to Pierre Gasly’s demise, before he moved up to fourth in the final standings due to a 5-second penalty handed to Sainz.

“Yeah, I mean, it was a funny race. I think we got away with some stuff going wrong at the end,” admitted the Canadian.

“I had my big lock-up, and I was kind of running in third, and then I went off the track just with the tyres being super cold, and Fernando got hit and spun.

“Then you know, we lucked out with the timing of the red flags, so yeah… [we’ll] take it, some good points.”

Stroll admitted that waiting for race control to rule on the final restart positions was a tense affair.

“For sure. Tension, frustration… I didn’t know if I just threw away the podium kind of thing,” he said. “Yeah, anyways, [we’ll] take it.”

Nico Hulkenberg enjoyed a remarkable run into the points in the Australian Grand Prix, but early on the Haas driver had a serious “code brown moment” when he arrived on the scene of Alex Albon’s crash.

Hulkenberg was running just behind Albon and Alpine’s Pierre Gasly in the opening stages of the race when the Williams driver lost it at Melbourne’s Turn 6 and hit the barrier on the left, his car rolling backwards onto the track and into the path of Gasly and Hulkenberg.

The Alpine and the Haas just narrowly avoided colliding with the stricken Williams, but it was a “nightmare scenario” according to the Hulk.

“Holy moly, I mean seriously I had a code brown in that moment,” said the Haas driver, quoted by Motorsport.com.

“That was seriously scary. I mean, thank God nothing happened. But this is a nightmare scenario. You’ve come around a blind corner in a street circuit.

“I mean, that was seriously scary and sketchy. That’s a bad example of a driver losing the car, crashing and coming back onto the track, and because there’s a gravel trap, there was dust, so you could not really see much.

“I think Pierre was in front of me, he was the first car, I was the second car, and no marshal in the world can react that fast.

“We didn’t have yellow flags, I just saw the cloud of dust and I saw gravel flying around, so I sort of didn’t take the ideal or normal racing line, I went a bit wider.

“I think I still didn’t miss him by much though, I immediately shouted on the radio that we need a safety car and that it was a dangerous situation.”

After the red flag commotion and restart, Hulkenberg settled in seventh place, leading Lando Norris for most of the afternoon until tyre graining on the Haas allowed the McLaren driver to overtake his rival in the closing stages of the race.

The second red flag of the day, triggered by Hulkenberg’s teammate Kevin Magnussen, brought a third standing start that was followed by more chaos on the track and a third red flag.

Hulkenberg had emerged fourth from the turmoil that eliminated both Alpine drivers, but race control ultimately opted to roll back the running order for the final lap behind the safety car to the previous standing start, which left the Hulk seventh in the final results.
