Exclusive: Conte and Guardiola still interested in €60m Juventus defender
Manchester City offered € 60 million to sign him last summer. Juventus did not say no but let the player decide his future. Bonucci snubbed a move to Manchester City and decided to stay at Juventus signing a contract extension just a few months after.
Our reporter Nicola Balice has exclusively learned that representatives of Manchester City are still in touch with the player’s entourage and that the Premier League giants are preparing a new € 60 million offer trying to tempt Bonucci and Juventus once again next summer.
Antonio Conte is also closely monitoring the situation regarding his former defender. The Italian tactician is also looking for some defensive reinforcement and in case Bonucci is open to leave Juventus at the end of the season, Chelsea could also match Juventus’ € 60m asking price. Bonucci is on a € 5 million-a-year deal until 2021.
