Juventus are reportedly eager to bring in Sven Botman from Lille OSC this summer.
At present, Juventus are enjoying the performances of Matthijs de Ligt whose role in the starting XI has become increasingly important. They hope that their association with the 22-year-old will last for a long time.
However, with the Dutchman’s contract expiring in 2024 and a 120 million euros release clause activating in June, the Old Lady will have to prepare a plan B.
The Plan A is obviously to keep the player around and offer him an extension. However, Juventus do not want to bump into any surprises and in the event of the club receiving a good offer, they need to prepare for life without him.
