Juventus have been in touch over Benfica regular for at least 10 days | OneFootball

Juventus continue to closely monitor Anatoliy Trubin. The “Old Lady” has even made exploratory contacts with the representatives of the Ukrainian international. It is now known that talks between the clubs have been going on for almost two weeks.

Juventus have shown interest in the Ukrainian goalkeeper for more than 10 days, according to Mirko Di Natale. The Italian journalist says that Benfica are aiming for a fee of 40 million euros, since Shakhtar Donetsk (his formative club) hold 40 percent of a future sale.

The goalkeeper from Eastern Europe is considered transferable, but not for a fee lower than the aforementioned 40 million, precisely because of the percentage of the capital gain that the Ukrainian side are entitled to in the event of a sale.

This means that, in a deal around what Benfica are expecting, the net amount received would be well below that figure. If the sale is confirmed for those 40 million and the capital gain is around 29 million, the Eagles will receive 17.4 million euros. Meanwhile, the Ukrainians will collect 11.6 million.

As a result of these clauses, Juventus may not, for now, be in a position to meet the demands imposed by Benfica. The Italian club’s fragile financial situation requires more careful transfer market management — something previously reported by our newspaper.
