Arriving at Chelsea in the winter of 2023 after showing up with Olympique Lyonnais, the young right-back decided to join London for a transfer estimated at 35 million euros, including 5 as a bonus. A great rise for the 22-year-old, who has become a French international in recent years. Currently under contract with the Blues until 2030, Malo Gusto has already played 10 matches and delivered 2 assists since the start of the season, thus becoming an important element for Enzo Maresca.
And because of his good performances, the ex-Lyonnais is being scrutinized by several European clubs, particularly in Italy. According to information from the Gazzetta Dello SportJuventus would like to get him back. Although the operation is likely to be very complicated, the Old Lady is already thinking about the winter transfer window, with the objective of strengthening its workforce and improving its technical qualities in this position, which will become the priority of the next transfer window.
Juventus absolutely must enlist a right back
The Bianconeri would like to quickly find a competitor to Pierre Kalulu, being lacking resources in this position. Juventus came very close to signing Nahuel Molina last summer, but the Argentine player ultimately chose to stay at Atlético Madrid, where he continues to be an important asset for Diego Simeone. Malo Gusto therefore appears as an alternative to this position for Igor Tudor, but the operation will logically be complicated because it will be necessary to satisfy the Blues.
For his part, Malo Gusto had recently claimed to feel good under the orders of Enzo Maresca. “The coach asked me a lot of things, and I appreciate that. I always try to give the best of myself. I can play in several positions, but the most important thing for me is to perform on the pitch, continue to improve as a player and try to help the team as much as possible.explained the French international, whose profile corresponds to what Igor Tudor is looking for. But the deal is very far from being closed.
