Zaniolo turns down PSG and agrees personal terms with Juventus – report

Nicolo Zaniolo has turned down an approach from Paris Saint-Germain as Juventus prepare to send in an official offer to Roma.

The 23-year-old Italian forward is not considered unsellable by the Giallorossi any longer and they’re now weighing up the economic benefits of a possible sale this summer, especially considering that his contract expires in 2024. They’re ready to respond to official offers and things are set to heat up now.

As reported by La Stampa, Zaniolo’s entourage have made it clear that staying in Italy is the priority and they politely turned down PSG following a recent approach. Juventus are expected to hand their official offer to Roma later this week as they look to close out a deal for the 23-year-old.

The Turin side are gearing up to sell defender Matthijs de Ligt and those funds would be used to immediately reinvest into a talent like Zaniolo.

La Gazzetta dello Sport details how the Roma talent has already reached a verbal agreement with the Bianconeri but he’ll have to wait for them to sell some midfielders first.
