Preliminary Talks with Juventus

Attacking Football can exclusively reveal that Salah held preliminary talks with Juventus.

Nothing is advanced between the Egyptian and Juventus, with the talks described as preliminary. There is no guarantee that these talks could lead to something more right now, but the interest is there from the Italian Club.

However, with the news that he will be leaving as a free agent, a scenario can be seen where he returns back to Italy, joining Juventus on a free transfer, especially if he feels that he is still able to play at the top level.

Would the interest from Juventus develop into something more, and would Salah return to the country where he started to make a name for himself? Will he move to another league? Will he call it a day in Europe and move to the MLS or the Saudi Pro League?
