Inter Milan and Juventus both remain keen to sign Lille and Canada striker Jonathan David, while AC Milan aren’t currently interested.
This according to Spanish outlet Relevo, via FCInterNews. They also report that Atletico Madrid are monitoring the 24-year-old, and offers will also likely arrive from the Premier League.
24-year-old Canadian international David is all but certain to be one of the big names on the free agent market next summer.
The former Gent striker is out of contract with Lille next summer. His contract expires at the end of next June.
And there is no indication that David will sign a new deal with Lille.
The Ligue 1 club have tried to convince the Canadian to put pen to paper on an extension. But he is not inclined to do so.
Therefore, David will almost certainly be available on a free transfer at the end of this season.
David has stayed at Lille for a few seasons despite fairly persistent transfer rumours linking him with an exit.
But with the striker available without a transfer fee, he will become a particularly enticing prospect.
Inter & Juventus Keen On Jonathan David – AC Milan Not Currently Interested
Inter are certainly a team who take note of big free transfer opportunities.
The Nerazzurri have signed all of Stefan de Vrij, Hakan Calhanoglu, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Andre Onana, and Marcus Thuram via that route in recent years.
This summer, Piotr Zielinski and Mehdi Taremi arrived at Inter on free transfers.
Spanish outlet Relevo confirm that Inter are indeed aiming to try and sign David next summer.
But it is not just the Nerazzurri who want to bring the Canadian to Serie A. Juventus are also eyeing David up as an attacking reinforcement.
