Juventus set €40m asking price for Everton-linked Demiral

Juventus have set a €40 million (£35m/$47m) asking price for Everton-linked defender Merih Demiral, Goal can confirm.

The Bianconeri paid €18m (£16m/$21m) to bring Demiral to Turin from Sassuolo in 2019, but he has since been unable to earn a regular place in the starting XI.

The 21-year-old was restricted to just 15 Serie A outings for Juve last term, and it has been suggested that returning head coach Massimiliano Allegri will sanction his departure before the summer transfer window closes.

Juve's stance on Demiral

Demiral has just returned to the Allianz Stadium following his appearance at Euro 2020 with Turkey, and is set to sit down for talks over his future with Allegri in the coming days.
