Lloyd Kelly had quite a decent 2025/26 season in Serie A with Juventus. It was quite a response to detractors who questioned him in his first six months at the club and he could now be on his way back to England.
Tuttomercatoweb report that despite Kellyโs impression, his future could lie in the Premier League.
Leeds United have concrete interest in the Englishman and the Whites are ready to assess the feasibility of a summer move. Juve havenโt made a final decision but are considering the situation, with TuttoJuve clarifying that apart from Leeds United, even Aston Villa are in the picture for a deal.
They see the 27-year-old as a way of bolstering their backline, as they inch closer towards signing Emerson Royal too.ย
Juveโs price tag for Kelly is currently not certain but that is likely to be rather affordable for both Leeds United and Aston Villa.

Capital gain key
It feels like Juve are happy to earn a capital gain from Kellyโs exit and move on. They are ready to move for Tarik Muharemovic, as new CEO Giovanni Carnevali knows him well from his time at Sassuolo. This should make a deal easier and Juve anyway have a resale clause in the Bosnianโs current deal.
That will make sure they can sign the defender for a cheaper amount than other suitors.
