Serie A giants Juventus have some positive signs in their move for Galeno, whose entourage favours a switch to the Bianconeri this summer.
La Gazzetta dello Sport state today that there are admirers from the Premier League for Galeno, but his entourage currently would like the player to join the Old Lady. Cristiano Guintoli is trying to accelerate the move, with Karim Adeyemi also another option.
But the intentions of Galeno’s entourage are seen as a positive sign by Juve, who could use that as a bargaining counter when they negotiate the move with Porto.
Adeyemi’s interest hasn’t quite progressed yet because of Dortmund’s high asking price and that is why negotiating with Porto for Galeno seems like a viable route. Juve want to sign two wingers this summer for a decent price and that would depend on sales of the likes of Federico Chiesa or Matias Soule.
Galeno has a €60 million release clause but there is a feeling that he could leave Porto for about €40 million, with the player increased appealed by the possibility of playing under Thiago Motta.
