Liverpool prepare bid for Huijsen as Juventus plan to earn €100m from defender sales

Gleison Bremer is not the only Juventus defender targeted by Premier League clubs, as Gazzetta reports Liverpool are preparing an offer for Dean Huijsen.

Page six of Thursday’s printed edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport reports Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig, and Liverpool are preparing offers to sign Juventus defender Dean Huijsen, who is currently on loan at Roma.

The Giallorossi are also interested in signing Huijsen permanently but will predictably struggle to match Juventus’ asking price close to €40m.

Gazzetta confirms Manchester United are considering paying Bremer’s €60m clause, so the sales of the Brazilian centre-back and Huijsen would allow the Old Lady to earn €100m to reinvest in the market.

Their priority in central defence is Bologna‘s Riccardo Calafiori, valued at €25m by the Rossoblu. According to the report, Juventus could include Samp loanee Facundo Gonzalez to lower Calafiori’s price tag, but before entering negotiations for the U21 Italy international, they’ll need to sell one between Bremer and Huijsen or even both.
