Juventus Turin is interested in Leon Goretzka, who would be free in the summer. But the German international still has other options.
Juventus Turin have made contact with Leon Goretzka in order to sign the German international on a free transfer in the summer. The midfielder is under contract with Bayern Munich until June and is also attracting interest from other European and international clubs.
Juventus coach Luciano Spalletti sees Leon Goretzka as the ideal candidate for midfield. According to Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, the club plans to sign seven new players to persuade Spalletti to extend his contract. Including the 31-year-old who will be leaving Munich.
In addition to Juventus, AC Milan, Galatasaray Istanbul, clubs from Saudi Arabia and the Premier League are also showing interest in Goretzka. The German international explained in January that a move abroad would be an exciting option for him: “I would find it exciting to go abroad in my career.”
A move to Atlético Madrid was already discussed during the winter break, but failed. The Spanish club still remains a possible option for the summer. Goretzka moved from Schalke 04 to Bayern Munich in 2018 and could now be looking for a new challenge.
