Tiago Djalo has asked Serie A giants Juventus to let him leave the club this summer, as Juve look set to sign Pierre Kalulu.
According to a report by Alfredo Pedulla, Tiago Djalo has handed over a transfer request to Juventus as he has struggled to break through into the first team. The 24-year-old arrived from Ligue 1 side Lille in January for a fee of around €3.6 million plus €3.1 in bonuses.
The Bianconeri have already indicated to the Portuguese that he will not be a regular member of the starting line-ups for the upcoming season as he was left out of the recent friendly matches. The Turin-based outfits are now pursuing the signature of Milan’s Pierre Kalulu and his arrival could put an end to Djalo’s Juventus career.
Porto have emerged as a favourable destination for Djalo as he gears up for a new experience away from Italy. However, several other undisclosed clubs have appeared on the horizon for him.
