With the arrival of Manuel Locatelli and the probable return of Miralem Pjanic before the end of the summer transfer window, Weston McKennie today finds himself threatened for his place. The American international is not on the departure but its leaders are not completely closed in the event of a big offer.
In recent days, the rumor of a departure of the international midfielder has been gaining momentum and many clubs seem to be on the spot. As revealed by “Corriere dello Sport” several Premier League formations appreciate the profile of the former defector from Schalke 04 and they would even be ready to draw in the coming hours to make an offer. If the transfer window officially closes on August 31, the midfielder has an interesting profile and his game could adapt well to the Premier League.
In addition to England, it is also in a championship that he knows well that he has good odds. According to the indications of “Calciomercato.it”, McKennie (22) is also in the background of Bayern Munich, which seeks to strengthen in the midfield. The Munich leaders are well aware of the qualities of the player since he was revealed in the Bundesliga in the blue tunic of Schalke 04 before Juve definitively secured his services last March.
The club claims 30 million euros
If he seems to be part of Massimiliano Allegri’s plans before starting a new season, the young American is far from inaccessible. As the local media indicate, the Old Lady is waiting for a minimum of 30 million euros to open negotiations and why not offer an exit voucher to her number 14 before August 31. Recruited against a little over 20 million euros including bonus, management would like to make a capital gain of around 10 million euros and this departure could come to free the place for Miralem Pjanic who wishes to return to the club after his failed stint at FC Barcelona.
Without this operation, the Bosnian midfielder will not be able to return to Piedmont because Aaron Ramsey, at the start, seems to have become an important element in Max Allegri’s system. See now, if a club agrees to offer the requested sum and integrate Weston McKennie into its workforce when there is a little more than 10 days before the transfer window closes. To be continued …
