Spanish left-back Alex Grimaldo is looking to leave Portuguese giants Benfica when his contract expires after the season ends. The player is wanted by Juventus, but he is also receiving a lot of attention from various Premier League clubs, according to reports. cultofcalcio.
The three Premier League teams that are interested in the player are Leeds United, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Newcastle United, however there is another club that also wants to sign the defender which could blow up all comers and that is Real Madrid. .
Juve FC says
Juve have been linked to Grimaldo for some time, but they always faced an uphill battle when wealthy Premier League clubs got involved and it has become much more difficult now that Real Madrid are also interested in his services.
Grimaldo came through the Barcelona academy and that may influence his final decision on which club to join, it may well be that he feels he cannot become Barca’s main enemy, however if it is about money then Real and the English will be able to beat Juve.
It seems unlikely that Grimaldo will be a Juve player next season and it is probably in their best interest to start looking for an alternative.
