Juventus set for key contact with Fenerbahce for Youssef En-Nesyri today

ย 

Juventus have shifted their focus in the final stages of the January window, scheduling a crucial meeting with Fenerbahce today to discuss a move for Youssef En-Nesyri.

According to Mirko Di Natale, the Bianconeri are set to hold talks with the Turkish side which could prove decisive in bringing the Moroccan international to Turin. Over the last few days, Juventus have become aware that a loan deal for the 28-year-old is a concrete possibility. It is a development that has drastically changed their transfer strategy.

This breakthrough has led the club to move on from Crystal Palaceโ€™s Jean-Philippe Mateta. While personal terms had been largely agreed with the Frenchman, the prohibitive โ‚ฌ40 million asking price and high commission demands from his entourage caused the deal to stall. In contrast, En-Nesyri represents a more accessible market opportunity following his return from the Africa Cup of Nations.

With the player reportedly open to the move, the upcoming dialogue between the two clubs will determine the final formula of the transfer as Juventus look to provide Luciano Spalletti with a new striker for the second half of the season.
