"McKennie's current contract is up at the end of the season, but he is set to sign a fresh deal through to 2030 with the Serie A giants. McKennie, 27, has been an integral part of the team under Luciano Spalletti, who took charge in October."
"He has been used in a variety of positions this term, operating at full-back, on the wing, in central midfield and even a makeshift forward against Galatasaray. Teams from Italy, Spain, the U.S. and England have been monitoring McKennie, sources told ESPN, but he is set on staying at Juventus."
"There were doubts on whether he'd re-commit when Igor Tudor was in charge at the start of the season, but under Spalletti, he's established himself as one of the first names on the team sheet."
Weston McKennie, the 27-year-old U.S. men's midfielder, is finalizing a new contract with Juventus that will keep him at the club through 2030. His current deal expires at season's end, but he has chosen to remain with the Serie A giants despite monitoring from clubs in Italy, Spain, England, and the United States. Under manager Luciano Spalletti, who arrived in October, McKennie has become a key player, deployed across multiple positions including full-back, wing, central midfield, and forward. McKennie joined Juventus in 2021 and previously had a loan spell at Leeds United in 2023. With 62 USMNT caps, he is expected to play a significant role in the U.S. World Cup campaign this summer.
