06 giu 2017

Juventus midfielder Mario Lemina is being linked with a summer departure from the J Stadium where he has not been playing on a regular basis this season. The Gabon International is said to be a transfer target of Arsenal, Watford and Valencia.

Talking to French news outlet Foot Mercato he said: “I am flattered by the interest of Arsenal and Watford. I am playing for a big club now but I am happy about the interest of other clubs. I do not have a preference for any league. My future depends on who really wants me.”

“I don’t think I’ll be moving to Lyon, I am from Marseille and I am not interested in joining them. I don’t think I have a chance to return to Marseille. Valencia? They are an important club, they have an important background and they have a new project. It’s all very interesting, let’s see.”

“Juve will be in my heart forever. I have a three-year deal and at the moment I am staying here. One more thing I want to add is that I have no agents, my family manage everything.”
