Juventus are reportedly ready to go big on signing Manchester City star Gabriel Jesus, with the Serie A side willing to fork £65m for the Brazilian international.
According to the Daily Star, Juventus are keen on signing the 24-year-old this summer, with City expected to sign Erling Haaland in a blockbuster transfer that could see one of the club’s current attackers leave Manchester, with Jesus a potential candidate.
The Premier League superstar, who Pep Guardiola has lauded as ‘incredible’ in recent years, has not featured often in recent months and is yet to sign a new contract with City, with the club eager to sign down their key players to fresh terms.
However, it is now looking likely that Jesus will be on the way out, with Juventus looking to spend a hefty sum for the South American attacker this summer, with Jesus likely being viewed as a replacement for Paulo Dybala.
The Argentine superstar is set to leave Turin with Juventus struggling to sign Dybala down to a new contract, and Jesus could be seen as the replacement for the 28-year-old attacker, who could be one of the top targets for many clubs around Europe this transfer window.
Indeed, this summer is expected to see major attacking changes for both City and Juventus, and for Jesus, the Brazilian could now be set to head to Italy with the Bianconeri keen to spend a hefty fee to sign the former Palmeiras superstar.
Manchester City should sell Jesus if Juventus make £65m offer
Haaland looks likely to join City this summer, and unfortunately for supporters, it will likely mean seeing one of their long-serving attackers depart the club, with Jesus to Juventus now a strong possibility, especially with the figures that could be on the table.
The Brazilian has been a great servant for City and a reliable attacker in both the Premier League and Europe, yet with a fee as high as £65m now being reported, the Manchester giants should be open to selling Jesus to Juventus this summer with Haaland set to replace him.
