PARIS (FRANCE) (ITALPRESS) – Juventus are ready to make a serious move for Jean-Philippe Mateta. According to “L’Equipe,” today’s match against Sunderland could well be the 28-year-old French striker’s last game in a Crystal Palace jersey. The Bianconeri are expected to make an initial official offer for him in the coming days: it’s expected to be a loan with an obligation to buy for €25 million.
Juventus wanted to wait until the summer to make a move, given Vlahovic’s almost certain departure, but fearing competition from other Premier League teams, they’ve decided to move forward. Mateta, for his part, is said to be more than open to the move, believing he’d have a better chance of convincing Deschamps to take him to the World Cup at Juventus.
