Angel di Maria joined Juventus on a one-year deal at the end of last season.
The Argentine had been on PSG’s books, and they let his contract run out.
This provided the Bianconeri with an opportunity to add an experienced leader to their squad.
The winger has been an important member of their squad so far and delivers when he plays.
However, he is not that young and is close to retiring from the game. This shows in his fitness problems.
The Bianconeri expect him to return to Argentina with Rosario Central at the end of this campaign.
Tuttomercatoweb reveals that they have identified a long-term goal to replace it.
The player in question is Nico Williams, from Athletic Bilbao, and he is now expected to join them in the summer.
The Spaniard is only 20 years old and is the younger brother of the more popular Iñaki Williams.
The report adds that it is currently valued at less than 20 million euros.
Juve FC says
We need to start planning for life without our older players because it’s only a matter of time before they stop playing.
Williams is still relatively young, but that means he’ll stick with us for a long time if we sign him now.
