Romano Exclusive: Juve know about Milan's interest in Pellegri but watch out for the Epl

08 ott 2017

Not Juve and not Milan. The race for Genoa's Pietro Pellegri doesn't have a team who is in pole position at the moment. Preziosi is negotiating well as he is waiting for better offers to arrive for his young phenom. The Genoa president wants to keep Pellegri for at least another season on loan before then letting him leave to a bigger club. He wants to get a very high number for Pellegri, between 30 and 40 million euros (with a lot of this money that would be in bonuses).

UPCOMING MOVES - Inter had him in their hands but they then had to abandon a deal for him and Milan made a blitz for him in August even if in the end, Pellergi stayed at Genoa. Milan will make another big attempt for him in January but they don't have any options or agreements in place at this moment in time. This is why Juve are ready to also make a move for him as they have been in contacts with Genoa and his agent.

WATCH OUT FOR THE EPL - Juve and Milan seem ready to battle it out for him but there aren't any favorites as of now. Inter can also always come back on him but that doesn't seem likely as of now. What about the EPL? Well the Epl seems to be a very strong possibility as he has a lot of admirers in England. Genoa and Pellegri are taking their time as they aren't rushed. Marotta would love to have Pellegri and Moise Kean in his team and this is why he turned down 7 million euros from Holland for Kean. Everyone is thinking of Pellergi as his future is in doubt....
