At Juventus, the transfer priority is clear: to resolve the goalkeeper situation. Luciano Spalletti would have preferred to have the new goalkeeper already on the team by mid-August, but the “no” from Alisson, Mile Svilar, and Mike Maignan—along with the failure to sell Michele Di Gregorio—inevitably slowed down the process.

Now, however, things seem poised to change: According to Spanish media reports, Valencia has contacted Juventus to inquire about Michele Di Gregorio, and the Bianconeri have obviously been very receptive to the Spanish club’s interest: selling the former Monza player is essential to proceeding with the signing of a new goalkeeper.

The news of Michele Di Gregorio’s possible transfer to La Liga has sparked enthusiasm among Bianconeri fans, who are already celebrating on social media: “Finally, we can get rid of this burden…better late than never,” wrote Gioele, echoed by Gianmarco: “I couldn’t wait for him to leave—good riddance! And now let’s go with Suzuki.”

In fact, there’s a good chance that the Old Lady’s goal will be entrusted to Zion Suzuki: the goalkeeper is about to leave Parma to join Paris Saint-Germain (the European champions will shell out 35 million euros), but the Japanese player won’t be staying in France for long.

PSG’s management, obviously in agreement with Luis Enrique, has decided to send Suzuki out on a one-year loan, and Juventus is a very strong contender. Several English clubs have also inquired about the possibility of signing the Japanese player on a temporary basis, but he has expressed a preference for Italy.
