On Thursday, we relayed news from Italy that Tottenham Hotspur are ahead of other Premier League sides in the race for Juventus’ Weston McKennie. It was also explained Borussia Dortmund are in pole position in the transfer race.
The German club’s interest in the 24-year-old is backed up by Calciomercato. They add his agents continue to register interest from the Premier League, and Spurs get a mention.
Despite Conte and Paratici admiring the American, the operation doesn’t seem particularly simple for the north London club. Chelsea are also in the mix and the report adds they would welcome the midfielder at Stamford Bridge.
McKennie is on the exit ramp and could leave the Turin club ‘immediately’ if they were to receive a ‘reasonable offer’ in January.
Juve’s goal is to earn €30m and they could settle for less, if a club can convince the ex-Schalke man and put an advantageous formula on the table to carry out the transfer.
Although the deal is not simple for Tottenham, they are told a ‘reasonable offer’ is enough to sign McKennie.
