Demiral chased by clubs from Premier League and Bundesliga

Ever since Merih Demiral joined Juventus last summer, it never looked like he had a realistic chance of breaking into the starting lineup. The Turkish defender was signed from Sassuolo in summer of 2019, as Juventus wanted to continue bringing in younger players, to help the aging squad. But that did not work out for Demiral.

According to always reliable Gianluca Di Marzio, Leicester City have joined the race to sign Juventus defender and the Turin club might be pushed towards letting him go. If Leicester were to sign him, they would have two defenders from Turkey, alongside with Caglar Soyuncu.

However, Leicester are not the only team interested. Borussia Dortmund are also chasing his signature, although Di Marzio claim the Foxes have submitted a formal offer. Demiral has only made three Serie A appearances since joining Juve and some reports are even suggesting he could leave for as much as 35 million euros.
