TOP STORY: Juventus accepting offers for Weston McKennie; Tottenham Hotspur interested

Juventus have decided that Weston McKennie will be leaving the Italian club in 2023, as has been reported by Calciomercato.

The U.S. men’s national team midfielder has played 13 times for I Bianconeri this season, including scoring against Paris Saint-Germain, but the Serie A giants will listen to offers for him as soon as January.

That is likely to please Tottenham Hotspur as they are said to really like the 24-year-old, who will be aiming to show what he is capable of as part of Gregg Berhalter’s squad at the World Cup this winter.

In another report out of Italy, Calciomercato suggests that Juventus could make a move for Atletico Madrid midfielder Rodrigo De Paul in the winter transfer window.

The Argentine is said to be out of Atleti’s project with there being no chance of him resolving his rift with Diego Simeone. This means that the side in LaLiga are evaluating whether to offload him permanently or on loan in January.

Aware that he is likely to depart, De Paul’s priority is securing a return to Italy after he spent five years there with Udinese. Juventus had actually attempted to sign the midfielder before Udinese accepted Atleti’s offer and they are now monitoring the current situation.

There is complete satisfaction when it comes to De Paul, and Juventus could make a move under certain conditions — especially if Juventus are open to a loan.
