Juventus are keen to bolster their attacking options in the summer and reports claim that they have turned their attention to Manchester United loanee Mason Greenwood.
It is understood that Juventus sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli wants a forward player with qualities to provide unpredictable moments of brilliance in the opponent’s half of the pitch.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, as cited by the Daily Mail, Juventus have doubts over the physical conditions of Italy international Federico Chiesa and it’s led the Italian giants to consider a move for Greenwood.
Greenwood has impressed with his performances in Spain on loan at Getafe, but he is owned by United, who are likely to try to sell him to the highest bidder in the summer.
Since joining Getafe at the end of the summer transfer window, Greenwood has made 27 appearances in La Liga and Copa del Rey, scoring 8 goals and providing 5 assists.
That is more than what Juve duo Filip Kostic and Chiesa managed so far this season.
Greenwood staying in Spain?
For months it was suggested that Barcelona were interested in signing Greenwood.
We know that is already the case with Getafe, although it’s unlikely that they will be able to afford a permanent deal at the end of the season.
Let us know in the comment section where you think Greenwood will be playing his football next season.
