La Gazzetta dello Sport confirms Leicester City are strongly interested in Matias Soulé but the offer they promised Juventus is still not good enough for the Bianconeri.
Premier League side Leicester City want to sign Juventus winger Soulé but will need more than €30m, including add-ons, to get the Argentinean starlet.
Tuttosport reported on Thursday that the Foxes were ready to bid €25m plus €5m bonuses and Gazzetta confirms that Juventus will soon receive the offer from the King Power Stadium.
Leicester City need final push to sign Juventus starlet Soulé
Nevertheless, the Serie A giants are expected to reject the proposal as they value Soulé at more than €30m. Therefore, if Leicester offer €30m plus add-ons, they’ll likely get the deal done.
New Juventus coach Thiago Motta wants to work with Soulé before making a final decision on his future, but he’s aware that the club need to boost their transfer budget to sign some priority targets such as Teun Koopmeiners, Jean-Clair Todibo and Jadon Sancho.
Soulé started the pre-season with Juventus after returning from a loan spell at Frosinone, where he scored 11 Serie A goals in 36 matches.
