This summer at Juventus can truly be called a rebuilding summer, as with a new coach, the team's veterans are gradually losing their places and have to leave Turin.
Earlier, the Zebras said goodbye to long-term goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny and now, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, defender Mattia De Sciglio will also be asked to leave. He was a key player for Massimiliano Allegri, who actually brought him to Juventus in 2017, and Thiago Motta doesn't see him in his squad.
And here is ready to hustle Empoli, who have expressed interest in the services of the 31-year-old defender. He has not yet given his consent to the transfer, asking for time to think about it, but the clubs have already agreed on everything.
No other suitors for De Sciglio have been named, but it is believed that Empoli's offer is one of the best.
Midfielder Weston McKennie was also on the list, but he managed to change Motta's attitude towards him and stayed in the team.
