Juventus are reportedly exploring a sensational move for Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta, with fresh rumours suggesting the Serie A giants are intensifying efforts to secure the French forward ahead of the summer window. While no official confirmation has emerged from either club, the speculation has already begun to generate significant buzz across Europe.
According to reports circulating on social media, Juventus initially proposed a loan deal with a €28 million buy option for the 28-year-old attacker. That offer was allegedly rejected by Crystal Palace, prompting the Italian club to reconsider their approach. The new proposal is said to include a loan with a mandatory purchase obligation in the summer, potentially rising to €30 million, along with a loan fee and performance-based bonuses tied to European qualification.
Mateta, who has been one of Palace’s most influential attackers in recent seasons, is rumoured to have already agreed personal terms with Juventus and is keen on making the move to Turin. The striker’s physical presence, aerial ability and improved goal output have reportedly caught the attention of Juventus’ recruitment team as they look to strengthen their attacking options.
The situation at Crystal Palace is also believed to be unsettled, with uncertainty surrounding the futures of several key players. This instability has further fuelled speculation that Mateta could be open to a new challenge abroad if the right offer arrives.
