Juventus star summer signing could already be up for sale.
Juventus went under another playing shift this summer, as the team went from one suited to the tactics of former coach Thiago Motta. The board looked to fill holes that Mottas team had and to sign players more suited to then coach Igor Tudors tactics. This led to the club signing two strikers to help Tudor.
However, both have failed to get their boots on the ground well in Turin. The signings of Jonathan David and Lois Openda where meant to help Juventus but more balls into the back of the net. However, so far things have not gone to planed with the two combining for only one league goal.
This poor form forced, Juventus to make a change firing Igor Tudor and hiring Luciano Spalleti. Spalleti coached his first game against Cremonese starting Openda and benching David. Openda played 64 minutes before making way for Francisco Conceicao and David had a five minute appearance off the bench.
While Openda signed on a loan to buy which will be activated next summer, Jonathan David was bought in on a free. This makes him a permanent player this summer, allowing him to be sold. Reports from Sacha Tavolieri from Sky Sport suggest this could happen by January.
This is due to David’s entourage looking for a move to rejuvenate his career. So far his move to Turin as helped no one as he is struggling for play time and losing confidence. Playing in the World Cup could also be the motivation for his move. Canada who he represents internationally have already qualified due to being a tournament co host.
So far two teams have been rumored to be interested in David signature. Tottenham Hotspurs from the Premier League and Bundesliga side Bayern Munich. Tottenham signed former Juventus striker, Randal Kolo Muani on loan this summer but are still looking for more goals under new coach Thomas Frank.
Bayern Munich have inquired simply to have David as depth incase of injury. So far, Harry Kane has been Bayren start this season, he has been one of europe’s best once again. However, Nicolas Jackson has struggled to find form like David after his move. David could be seen as a replacement to Jackson if he returns to Chelsea or added depth incase he stays.
