Report Juventus in direct Sorloth talks and Nottingham Forest want Openda | OneFootball

Juventus have begun negotiations with Atletico Madrid centre-forward Alexander Sorloth, claim Sky Sport Italia, while Nottingham Forest are among Lois Openda contenders.

It’s going to be all change for the Bianconeri attack this summer, because Dusan Vlahovic is leaving as a free agent on June 30 after failing to agree a new contract, while Jonathan David, Openda and Eden Zhegrova are for sale.

According to Sky Sport Italia transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, Juve have started direct talks with Atletico Madrid striker Sorloth to discuss personal terms.

The 30-year-old Norway international has also been linked with a possible move to Serie A for Milan, along with Barcelona as a replacement for Robert Lewandowski.

He was purchased from Villarreal for €32m in the summer of 2024 and scored 20 goals in 54 competitive games for Atletico Madrid this season.

His contract at the Wanda Metropolitano only runs to June 2028.

The same source also states this evening that Openda is on the radar for several clubs including Nottingham Forest, Eintracht Frankfurt, and AS Monaco.

The 26-year-old has been a flop since the massive €45m move from RB Leipzig, scoring only two goals in 34 games.
