Juventus director in Istanbul to close deal with Fenerbahce for En-Nesyri

Thursday’s reports confirm that Juventus’s sporting director Marco Ottolini has arrived in Istanbul with the aim of closing a deal for Fenerbahce striker Youssef En-Nesyri. 

Juventus have been looking to add another centre-forward to their ranks in January following the long-term injury to Dusan Vlahovic, whose contract is set to expire at the end of the 2025-26 season anyway. 

The Bianconeri had been linked with a move for Crystal Palace’s Jean-Phillipe Mateta, but are currently unable to meet the selling club’s demands.
