Euro 2020 winner enters Juventus list of summer targets

Juventus remain in the running to sign a left back before this transfer window closes, and the latest player on their radar is Emerson Palmieri.

The defender won Euro 2020 with the Italian national team and has remained one of the most experienced left backs in Europe during his time at Olympique Marseille.

At the Ligue 1 side, he is one of their most reliable players, and they will want to keep him because of the contributions he makes to their team. However, with the transfer window still open, every player has a price as clubs look to improve their options.

Juventus consider Emerson move

Calciomercato says Emerson is one of the players on Juventus’ radar as the Bianconeri continue searching for another left back to add to their squad this summer.

The report says Juventus are keen to strengthen the position before the window closes, and Emerson has now emerged as one of the players they want to sign. His experience could make him an attractive option for the Bianconeri as they look to improve the quality available to Luciano Spalletti.

Emerson has played for several top clubs in the past, including Chelsea, and his experience at the highest level could be useful to Juventus. He has also spent time playing in Serie A, meaning a return to Italian football would not be unfamiliar to him.

Emerson faces Juventus decision

The defender would probably struggle to turn down a move to Juve, knowing they are one of the strongest clubs in the world and the biggest in Italian football. A move to Turin could therefore represent an appealing opportunity for the experienced left back.

Juventus have other left backs on their radar during the final days of the market, so Emerson is not guaranteed to become their choice. The Bianconeri will assess their options before deciding which player they want to pursue.

For Emerson, the situation could provide an opportunity to join another major club and return to Serie A. He will therefore hope that Juventus decide he is the right player to strengthen their squad before the transfer window closes.

The coming days should reveal whether the Bianconeri make a serious move for him or choose another target, with the left back position still an area they want to improve.
