Stephan Lichtsteiner continues to be linked with a move away from Juventus, with the parties reputedly still €1m apart in contract renewal talks.
The Swiss defender’s current contract expires in the summer, and the full-back has been increasingly linked with a move away from Turin, with Arsenal most recently suggested as set to offer the 30-year-old an opportunity in the Premier League.
Stephan Lichtsteiner continues to be linked with a move away from Juventus, with the parties reputedly still €1m apart in contract renewal talks.
The Swiss defender’s current contract expires in the summer, and the full-back has been increasingly linked with a move away from Turin, with Arsenal most recently suggested as set to offer the 30-year-old an opportunity in the Premier League.
Such a move could be drawing closer with Tuttosport reporting that Juventus’ offer of €2m per season plus bonuses for a three-year contract remains some way short of the former Lazio man’s request.
It is believed that Lichtsteiner is unwilling to accept anything less than €3m per annum for the same three-year deal, a figure which the Bianconeri are unwilling to meet.
The stall in negotiations is reported to have alerted numerous other clubs to the possible availability of the right-back, with Paris Saint-Germain named alongside Arsenal as interested.
As previously reported, Inter may also try to tempt Lichtsteiner to stay in Italy, although his relatively advanced age may be deterrent to President Erick Thohir’s intended approach.
