According to famous transfer reporter Romano, Juventus has reached an agreement with Jonathan David on personal treatment, and the Canadian is about to become a member of the Zebra Legion.

Lille is the forward, attracting many teams to chase him

In the past five seasons, Jonathan David has made 232 appearances for Lille, creating 139 goals (109 goals and 30 assists). In the contract year of the 2024/25 season, Jonathan David handed over a 49-game record of 25 goals and 12 assists, attracting the attention of teams including Inter Milan, Bayern Munich, Barcelona, ​​Manchester United and Naples. Some of the clubs even had Canadians in private.

The personal ceiling is not high, and the giants are hesitant

The average running distance is no less than that of the wing players. The encirclement and reception after high-intensity sprints are very outstanding. In games with low intensity, they can play the offensive axis of the frontcourt. Short passes and back-body skills are above the level, and the two-foot shooting and penalty skills are remarkable... Jonathan David is a typical "small team football king". His ability is not enough to lead the team to compete for the championship in the five major leagues, but it is still more than enough to deal with the "four-foot" goal. This is why teams such as Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich and Inter Milan are just "attention" but are reluctant to place orders for a long time.

Buy the bottom without hesitation. Juventus showed ambitions. After experiencing the chaos of the Mota era, Juventus is no longer able to compete with teams of the same level for the top striker. The signing of Jonathan David is obviously a good choice. The hesitation of Barcelona and Bayern and other teams gave them the opportunity to buy at the bottom.

Although there is no need to pay the transfer fee, considering Jonathan David's annual salary (8 million euros) and signing fee requirements, Juventus still has to spend nearly 50 million euros. When other giants choose to hold on, Juventus takes the initiative, which is tantamount to taking risks. Considering that Vlahovic and Kloe Muaniliu have little hope, Jonathan David will quickly become the team's forward tactical core after coming to Juventus, the Zebras also hope to give Tudor a reassurance through such a deal.
