On Sunday, Tuttosport stated Juventus’ Samuel Iling-Junior has long been on Aston Villa sporting director Monchi’s list. The same outlet also reported Everton have identified him as an alternative to Leeds United’s Wilfried Gnonto.
Unai Emery’s side and the Toffees have joined Brighton & Hove Albion and Wolverhampton Wanderers in the chase for the 19-year-old.
It’s claimed the Premier League duo are ‘willing to present a concrete offer’ to the Old Lady for the England U20 international.
The fee these clubs intend to table isn’t mentioned but the report says Juventus will need €25m to sanction the player’s sale. Calciomercato say no one at the Italian club is non-transferable.
The winger’s agent, Frank Trimboli, is aware the price set by the Turin club can be met by clubs in England. The representative is also in favour of a summer transfer as the website states he has ‘kept all doors open’ for his client.
Iling-Junior was promoted to Juve’s senior team last season and managed a goal and two assists from 18 games.
