Juventus ready to snap up Jonathan David on free transfer but agent's massive commission demand holding up deal as Saudi clubs wait in the wings

<p>According to <a href="https://www.gazzetta.it/Calcio/Calciomercato/Juventus/25-06-2025/david-chiama-la-juve-il-canadese-spinge-ma-serve-lo-sconto-dei-suoi-agenti.shtml?refresh_ce" target="_blank">Gazzetta dello Sport</a>, David appreciates Juventus' interest and wants to join the Italian giants, but the player's agent is demanding a hefty commission for the deal to go through. Juventus are still negotiating, and the signs are positive as David is in favour of moving to Turin even though he has received lucrative offers from Saudi Arabian clubs.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The 25-year-old Canadian forward left Lille as a free agent this summer. The forward wants to join Juve, but his camp are demanding a big fee of around €15 million (£13m/$17m). Juve general manager Damien Comolli is deterred by the high fees, and David has personally spoken to his camp to reduce the demands and negotiate a deal. The Italian club have also shortlisted other forwards in case there's a fallout in David's deal.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Comolli has many plans for the club. From showing interest in Chelsea's Nicolas Jackson to heavily pushing to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/jadon-sancho-swap-deal-juventus-dusan-vlahovic-man-utd-exchange-winger-accept-pay-cut-join-serie-a-giants/bltf86b806f0ddeac5e" target="_blank">bring Jadon Sancho to Turin</a>, the club want to secure a few big names as they head into the upcoming Champions League. Reportedly, head coach Igor Tudor fancies bringing Victor Osimhen to the club, whom he considers to be the favourite to replace Dusan Vlahovic.</p>
