Juventus’ Interference in Crystal Palace’s Pursuit of Evan Guessand

Crystal Palace’s pursuit of Evan Guessand is facing complications due to interest from Juventus.

Advanced Negotiations with Aston Villa

According to TMW, Crystal Palace is currently engaged in significant discussions with Aston Villa regarding the signing of the multi-talented forward.

A Possible Mateta Replacement

Palace views Guessand as a feasible substitute for Jean-Philippe Mateta, who has garnered interest from Juventus this month.

Juventus Enters the Scene

However, Guessand has also caught the attention of Juventus, prompting the Italian club to reach out to Aston Villa this morning for an update on the player’s status.

While Palace seems to be ahead in the negotiation process, Juventus’ declaration of interest today could potentially sway Guessand’s inclination.

It is worth noting that Juventus has recently lost some enthusiasm for Mateta due to the competitive salary being offered by Nottingham Forest. Intermediaries suggest that Crystal Palace might take a similar financial approach concerning Guessand.
