Fulham have agreed personal terms with 24-year-old Juventus full-back Luca Pellegrini ahead of potential transfer in the ongoing window.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Fulham are keen on having Luca Pellegrini in their ranks ahead of next season. The 24-year-old full-back might not have had the best of times of late, but there is a lot of interest in his services from across Europe.
Pellegrini was a part of the AS Roma youth setup back in the day. He came through the ranks at Stadio Olimpico before joining Juventus on a permanent basis back in the summer of 2019. The 24-year-old full-back has been subject to multiple loan moves since joining the Turin-based club.
Despite having joined them four seasons back, the Italian international has failed to establish himself in their first team. He has been involved in just 21 matches for the Old Lady. As far as last season is concerned, the 24-year-old was on loan at Eintracht Frankfurt for the first half and then he joined Lazio for the second half of the season.
Pellegrini featured in a total of just 22 matches and was on the pitch for just over 1,000 minutes. He failed to make an impact and has returned to his parent club. However, the 24-year-old is expected to be on the move in the ongoing window given the number of clubs that are after his signatures.
Meanwhile, Premier League club Fulham are keen on signing a new left-back. Their priority was to sign Fodé Ballo-Toure from AC Milan and they submitted an offer for him. But the Cottagers have failed to reach an agreement and are now pushing for the signature of Pellegrini.
Fulham have already secured an agreement on personal terms with the 24-year-old, who is keen on making the move. They are in talks with the Italian giants but have not managed to agree on a deal with them yet.
With Fulham desperate for a new left-sided full-back, they are expected to push harder for the 24-year-old in the coming days. Meanwhile, Juventus’s focus has been on offloading players and making financial gains. As a result, they are likely to accept a decent offer for the Italian international.
