On Sunday, Tuttosport stated Juventus’ Samuel Iling-Junior has long been on Aston Villa sporting director Monchi’s list. The same outlet also reported Everton have identified him as an alternative to Leeds United’s Wilfried Gnonto.
`Unai Emery’s side and the Toffees have joined Brighton & Hove Albion and Wolverhampton Wanderers in the chase for the 19-year-old.
Calciomercato now state both Aston Villa and Everton are ready to take further steps to sign Iling-Junior.
It’s claimed the Premier League duo are ‘willing to present a concrete offer’ to the Old Lady for the England U20 international.
The fee these clubs intend to table isn’t mentioned but the report says Juventus will need €25m to sanction the player’s sale. Calciomercato say no one at the Italian club is non-transferable.
The winger’s agent, Frank Trimboli, is aware the price set by the Turin club can be met by clubs in England. The representative is also in favour of a summer transfer as the website states he has ‘kept all doors open’ for his client.
Iling-Junior was promoted to Juve’s senior team last season and managed a goal and two assists from 18 games.
