Juventus Eyeing Mason Greenwood Signing

Turin, Italy – Serie A powerhouse Juventus has received a significant boost in their pursuit of Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood, with the Englishman expressing his willingness to join the club this summer. Reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport shed light on Juventus’ keen interest in the out-of-favor Manchester United player, marking an early move by the Bianconeri in their quest to secure his services.

Thiago Motta, Juventus’ head coach, has expressed a strong desire to incorporate Greenwood into his tactical setup, envisioning him on the right side of his preferred 4-2-3-1 formation. The club’s persistent efforts to sign Greenwood are finally showing signs of progress, with the player himself acknowledging Motta’s admiration for him and expressing his desire for a potential switch.

Negotiations with Manchester United are underway, with the Premier League club reportedly seeking a transfer fee of around €40 million for Greenwood’s permanent departure. However, Juventus’ sporting director, Cristiano Guintoli, acknowledges the financial challenges posed by this valuation. In a bid to lower the price, Juventus are considering including promising winger Samuel Iling-Junior in the deal, a player who has attracted interest from English clubs Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa.

The potential departure of Federico Chiesa, whose contract expires in 2025, adds an intriguing dimension to Juventus’ transfer strategy. Should Chiesa leave, it could create further room for Greenwood’s arrival.

In the event that negotiations for Greenwood falter, Juventus have identified an alternative target in Savio. The Troyes winger, who impressed during his loan spell at Girona, is set to join Manchester City in the summer. However, Juventus are monitoring the situation closely, anticipating the possibility of securing Savio on loan should he struggle to establish himself in City’s first team immediately.

As Juventus navigates the intricacies of the transfer market, their pursuit of Greenwood underscores their ambition to bolster their squad with top talent. The coming weeks are poised to be pivotal as the club seeks to finalize their summer acquisitions.
