Juventus’s sporting director, Cristiano Giuntoli, reportedly made a secret trip to London between Tuesday and Wednesday to discuss matters with Chelsea. The purpose of the meeting was to explore the possibility of a transfer deal involving Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku.
According to reports from Italian publication La Gazzetta dello Sport, Giuntoli made a discreet visit to the English capital to engage in discussions with Chelsea regarding Romelu Lukaku’s potential transfer.
The nature and extent of these negotiations remain undisclosed, adding an air of secrecy and suspense to the situation. Juventus is believed to have submitted an offer that has caught the attention of both Chelsea and Lukaku himself.
Lukaku had initially seemed destined for a return to Inter, but now his hopes lie in securing a concrete offer from Juventus, as the only other serious interest in his services comes from Saudi Arabia.
Juventus has prepared a bid for Lukaku, matching Chelsea’s valuation of €40 million. The proposed offer stands at €37.5 million, with an additional €2.5 million in potential add-ons. The Bianconeri reportedly have agreements in place with Lukaku.
