Dortmund interested in Signing McKennie from Juventus

DBasia.news – Reportedly, Borussia Dortmund are interested in signing Weston McKennie from Juventus in the transfer market this summer.

The Bianconeri will need to make room in their midfield if they are to welcome Leandro Paredes from Paris Saint-Germain this month, and time is running out.

Reported by Football Italia, Juventus hoped to sell Adrien Rabiot to Manchester United, but the deal fell through, and no offer came in for Arthur Melo.

That way, McKennie became an alternative for Juventus to open up space to bring in new players.

As reported by Corriere dello Sport, Dortmund have requested information from Juventus regarding the opportunity to sign McKennie.

Juventus made it clear that they would not let the 23-year-old American leave for less, so Dortmund would have to spend a hefty amount to secure his signature.

McKennie’s contract with Juventus runs until 2025 and he has performed well under Massimiliano Allegri in the 2021/22 season, scoring four goals in 29 appearances in all competitions.

Prior to playing for Juventus, McKennie played for Schalke for four seasons, making 91 appearances in all competitions and scoring five goals.
