Juventus, ready the blitz for Karim Adeyemi

After restoring the coffers through the disposals of Matias Soulé and Dean Huijsen, Juventus è is ready to return to the market to give new coach Thiago Motta some new reinforcements, one of them being a new attacking outside back. For several days, the Bianconeri have been following several profiles and the hottest name would be that of Karim Adeyemi of Borussia Dortmund.

According to a report by "Tuttosport", after contacts with the player’s family, Cristiano Giuntoli has already reached an agreement in principle with the player’s entourage on the basis of a five-year agreement at 3.5 million euros plus bonuses per season. Once an agreement has been reached with the agents of the 2002-born German, the Bianconeri will begin negotiations directly with Borussia Dortmund.

The German club, also accomplice to budgetary needs, would be willing to deprive itself of Adeyemi, but would not be willing to go below 50 million euros. The distance between the two clubsà would still be wide, with Juventus reportedly submitting an initial offer of 35 million euros plusù 10 in bonuses, collecting a sharp "NO" from BVB.

The Bianconeri, for their part, would be confident that they would be able to lower the demands of the yellow and black club, but at the same time they would also be following alternative profiles to the 2002 class, one of them being Porto’s Galeno, who would already be open to a transfer to Italy and would have a valuation around 25-30 million euros.
