DBasia.news – Juventus reportedly fell in love with Manchester United full-back Alex Telles. To be able to get the Brazilian player, Juve even offered one of its players, Adrien Rabiot.
Manchester United spent 15 million euros on signing Alex Telles from FC Porto in the summer of 2020. Telles is expected to improve the quality of the Red Devils full-back.
However, Telles is still having trouble adapting to English football. He has only played in seven Premier League matches.
There are at least two reasons why Telles doesn’t shine yet. First up was Luke Shaw’s resounding performance on the left. In addition, Telles was also plagued by the corona virus and injuries.
These conditions made Juventus believe they could get Telles. The Bianconeri need a new left-back after Alex Sandro’s lackluster performance.
In order to bring Telles to Turin, Juventus will include Rabiot in the deal. In the last few days, the former Paris Saint-Germain was indeed rumored to have left.
The Juventus opportunity
In fact, the chances of Juventus getting Alex Telles are quite large. The 28-year-old is believed to be interested in moving to Juve after difficulties with English football.
However, it is worth seeing if any money will be involved. This is because the prices of the two players are believed to be unequal. Currently, Telles is still under contract until 2024.
