Talks are underway between Pape Matar Sarr and Juventus after an agreement was reached with Juventus. The midfielder is seen as a priority signing for the buying side, who are now focused on finalising personal terms as they look to strengthen their squad and kick-on. The player has not yet agreed a contract, but the move is progressing rapidly behind the scenes and is expected to be completed in the coming days. Juventus remain optimistic, but the deal is not without hurdles. Nottingham, Besiktas and Monaco continue to monitor developments and could yet re-enter the race if negotiations stall or valuation gaps remain unresolved. Juventus are only scoring 1.0 goals per game (1 in 1) this season, which suggests they need more creativity in the middle. Pape Matar Sarr would be seen as the link to raise the tempo and feed the attack. Tottenham have also been linked with Igor Matanovic, Amine Gouiri and Emilano Martinez while Juventus are reportedly monitoring Franck Kessie, Juan Miranda and Kamil Grabara.
