Crystal Palace have reportedly presented an offer to Juventus for Matias Soule ahead of next month’s transfer window.
The Bianconeri are looking to bolster their midfield in the January transfer window following suspensions to Paul Pogba and Nicolo Fagioli, and have identified two key targets – Manchester City’s Kalvin Phillips and Atalanta’s Teun Koopmeiners.
Whilst Juventus can sign the former on a six-month loan deal with a buy option attached, they’ll need to pay up to secure the Atalanta midfielder. As such, the club have been looking to raise funds through the sales of some of their talented youngsters.
As reported by Corriere dello Sport, intermediaries from Crystal Palace have proposed an offer worth around €35m to Juventus for Soule, who has emerged as an exciting winger at Frosinone on loan this term.
The 20-year-old Argentine has scored six goals and provided one assist across 13 Serie A outings this term, attracting the attention of The Eagles as well as Newcastle United.
Juventus would then be able to use Soule’s sale to fund their deal for Koopmeiners, who has a €35-40m price tag at Atalanta.
The Bianconeri are also open to offers for Samuel Iling-Junior and Kenan Yildiz, two other talents who are on the fringes of Massimiliano Allegri’s squad.
