Juventus looks set to accept AS Roma’s offer for Matias Soulé as he insists he wants to keep playing in Serie A.
The attacker is the subject of transfer interest from several clubs after doing well on loan at Frosinone last season.
Juve could keep him, but they need money to sign Teun Koopmeiners, and the Argentinian is one of their most sought-after players.
They want to cash in on the hype while they can, and Leicester City seemed serious about signing him.
West Ham is the other Premier League club that is also very interested in a move for the attacker.
However, Soulé has prioritised a move to AS Roma, even though they will not offer as much money as the Premier League clubs.
Naturally, Juve wants him to move to the club that offers them the most money, but Soulé is not interested in leaving Serie A, and the attacker is now expected to join Roma, Football Italia reveals.
It is not what Juve wants, and Roma will not pay as much as the Premier League clubs were willing to pay, but they are confident they will win the race.
Juve FC Says
We cannot force Soule to join a team he does not want to join and have to sell someone else if his departure does not fetch us enough money to sign Koopmeiners.
I don’t understand. Calafiori wants to come to Turin and is sold to Arsenal instead because they can pay more.
Juventus really need the money to sign Koopmeiners, and Soulé does what he wants???
I don’t understand why we need to sell Soule or Huijsen? They’re both highly rated and they’ve already put Milik, McKenney, Chiesa, Rugani and more on the market
Soule must not be sold for under $30M. Otherwise keep him and focus on selling Chiesa and some of the other players earmarked for an exit.
