Juventus are willing to meet Mohamed Salah’s contract demands as talks with Liverpool over a new deal continue to falter ahead of the summer transfer window.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the European giants are ready to offer the 29-year-old superstar a substantial financial package to lure the winger back to Italy, with Juventus eyeing Salah as their dream signing to replace Paulo Dybala.
The Argentine is set to leave Juventus at the end of this season as a free agent, and Salah is being eyed by the club as Dybala’s successor, with the attacker himself having contract problems with Liverpool over signing a new deal.
The Merseyside club are yet to strike an agreement with Salah over a new contract, and this lack of progress has given Juventus hope that they could pull off an incredible move to sign the Premier League superstar this summer.
As per Gazzetta dello Sport, tax rates in Italy mean the Old Lady are financially better off than a Liverpool to offer Salah what he wants in terms of salary, with Juventus using this rule in the Italian system as a way to land some of the biggest names in world football.
Indeed, Salah has spoken about his desire to remain in Liverpool, but with contract talks barely moving and Juventus ready to offer the winger his financial demands, there’s a growing chance that the Egyptian could head to Turin this summer.
Salah to Juventus grows more likely as Liverpool contract talks stall
The prospect of Salah leaving Liverpool in the form of his life seems almost ludicrous, but with each passing day where the Reds stall on awarding their star player a new contract, the more the prospect grows of the winger joining Juventus in the summer.
Juventus have the stature and pulling power to attract Salah back to Italy, and the longer Liverpool wait on meeting the attacker’s contract demands, the Old Lady will have confidence that they can pull off their biggest transfer since Cristiano Ronaldo.
