Juventus are reportedly keen on signing Jonathan David from LOSC Lille, and they are currently leading the chase for his signature.
According to a report by French outlet Foot Mercato, Jonathan David is on the radar of Liverpool and Manchester United as well. However, Juventus are the front-runners to land the 24-year-old LOSC Lille striker next year.
The 24-year-old will be a free agent in the summer of 2025, and he could be available for a reasonable amount of money in January. The Ligue 1 outfit will not want to lose him as a free agent, and it makes sense to sell the player for a knockdown price midway through the season. It will be interesting to see if Juventus can get a deal across the line.
The Serie A outfit could certainly use more quality and depth in their attacking unit, and the Canadian would be a quality addition. He has proven himself to be a reliable goalscorer in the French league. David managed to score 26 goals across all competitions last season, and he has 15 goal contributions this season already.
David will want to compete at the highest level as well, and the opportunity to join one of the biggest clubs in Italy will be quite attractive for him. However, the prolific LOSC Lille attacker is also a target for other European bigwigs.
Liverpool and Manchester United keen
Liverpool have been linked with attackers, including Jonathan David, recently, and it will be interesting to see if they decide to make a move for the Canadian striker. They could certainly use more depth in the attack. Darwin Nunez has not been able to score goals consistently, and Diogo Jota is prone to picking up injuries. Having another reliable goalscorer would be ideal for Liverpool.
Manchester United are keeping tabs on his situation as well, and it will be interesting to see if the Red Devils decide to move for him. They signed Joshua Zirkzee at the start of the season, but the Dutch international has not been able to live up to the expectations.
Manchester United might need to bring in an upgrade soon, and they would be a quality addition. All three clubs have the financial muscle to get the deal done, and it will be interesting to see where the Canadian international ends up.
