Juventus defender Luca Pellegrini turned down a move to Fulham this summer because he wants to stay in Italy.
That’s according to Tuttosport, who cover Pellegrini’s and Moise Kean’s future today after their agents made a recent visit to Juventus.
They explain that Enzo Raiola and lawyer Rafaela Pimenta, who represent Kean, Pellegrini and Paul Pogba, recently visited Continassa to discuss the future of the first two.
The meeting was not just a courtesy visit but an attempt to talk about the market and potential moves for Kean and Pellegrini.
Unlike the striker, Pellegrini is leaving Juventus this summer and his agents have discussed possible destinations for him.
One of those they proposed was Fulham, who were keen to take him to Craven Cottage as they strengthen for life back in the Premier League.
Pellegrini, though, wasn’t interested and ‘refused to play in the Premier League with Fulham’ .
He simply wasn’t interested in joining Marco Silva’s side as he wants to stay in Italy this summer.
He now has interest from Sampdoria and Atalanta.
Whether he ends up at either remains to be seen but what is certain is that he won’t be joining Fulham, having rejected that option outright.
