Inter Milan, Juventus & Barcelona Gearing Up For Transfer Battle To Sign Canada FIFA World Cup Star | OneFootball

Inter Milan, Juventus, and Barcelona are all getting ready to fight to sign Lille striker Jonathan David on a free transfer next summer.

This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews. They report that the Nerazzurri and the Bianconeri are vying to bring David to Serie A, while Barcelona are also very keen.

Lille and Canada striker David is all but certain to be one of the major free transfer opportunities next summer.

The 24-year-old’s current contract with Lille runs until the end of next June.

And there has been no indication that David would plan on signing an extension.

Therefore, David should be available on a free transfer when his deal expires.

And that is causing a lot of clubs in Europe to sit up and take note.

A good deal of the interest has centred around Serie A.

Juventus reportedly consider David as a potential target. But above all, it has been Inter who have been eyeing up a move for the Canadian.

The Nerazzurri’s propensity to seize upon free transfer opportunities is hardly a secret.

And David would certainly be another major coup in that respect.

But Inter are hardly the only team to have taken a big interest in David’s signature.

In the Italian top flight, Inter’s Derby d’Italia rivals Juventus are also targeting the Canadian.

The Bianconeri are looking to bolster in attack with backup, competition, or even a replacement for Dusan Vlahovic.

And David is foremost among the targets for the Turin-based giants. Particularly considering his availability on a free transfer.

Moreover, Tuttosport notes, the friendship between Juventus winger Timothy Weah and David – the two having been teammates at Lille – could be an advantage for the Bianconeri.

It’s not only teams from Serie A who will push to sign David, though.

According to Tuttosport, Barcelona are also hoping to bring the 25-year-old in next summer.
