Tyrick Mitchell has started the season well for Crystal Palace but the defender’s future at the club could be uncertain.
The defender has played five times in the Premier League this season, already scoring twice. He has become an important player for Pierre Sage, having done the same for Oliver Glasner in the past.
The 27-year-old has previously attracted European interest, with Tottenham also in the picture in the past.
His profile has clearly grown since then, and a move to Italy is seen as a possibility.
Entourage working on transfer
Today’s TuttoSport states the club in question is Juventus, who feel the need to sign another left-back. Andrea Cambiaso is injured and Juan Cabal is out of the project. Zeki Celik has been filling in but he is mainly a right-back.
This has led to Juve looking around the market for options. The Crystal Palace defender’s name has landed on sporting director Ricky Massara’s desk.
His entourage at ROOF is behind this, as they are trying to find a new club for the player. Juve are tempted by this opportunity and are evaluating the idea of making a move.
They see his possible free agency status as an intriguing opportunity. The Bianconeri are also aware they will have to beat competition from English clubs. As a result, they can attempt to sign him on a low-cost move in January.
Eagles need to hurry
It looks like Crystal Palace have a problem on their hands, when it comes to Mitchell. His entourage appears to be actively hunting for a transfer and Crystal Palace are struggling for control.
This should be seen as a sign to hurry, or those around the left-back could alert more clubs to the opportunity.
He is Premier League proven and a consistent performer at Selhurst Park. He is certain to attract many suitors and the Eagles wouldn’t want to lose him and Jean-Philippe Mateta in a short space of time. Handing him a bridge one-year deal would at least help them earn a significant amount from the transfer.
