"The Frenchman has recorded 16 and 14 Premier League goals in his last two seasons with Palace, and has already clocked eight so far this term. Ornstein states that the current Conference League club were looking for a fee of just under 35m, a price which, when added to expected agent fees, was viewed as too expensive for the Italian side given Mateta's age."
"According to a report from The Athletic's David Ornstein, Juventus have moved on from their interest in striker Jean-Philippe Mateta. 'The Old Lady' are now said to have moved on to a fresh target in Fenerbahce's Youssef En-Nesyri, who, according to Fabrizio Romano, is also under consideration at Everton. Mateta is said to have been interested in the move to Juventus, with contract discussions not thought to be an issue,"
Crystal Palace have fended off reported interest from Juventus in striker Jean-Philippe Mateta after setting a fee just under £35m, with additional agent costs viewed as prohibitive given Mateta's age. Mateta scored 16 and 14 Premier League goals in the previous two seasons and has eight so far this term. The club recently sold captain Marc Guehi to Manchester City and attacker Eberechi Eze to Arsenal, prompting manager Oliver Glasner to announce he will leave at the end of the season and express frustration at the squad changes. Juventus have shifted attention to Fenerbahce's Youssef En-Nesyri, who is also linked with Everton.
