Sevilla have entered the race for Youssef En-Nesyri.
En-Nesyri’s transfer negotiations have entered a far more complex phase than expected. Although Juventus and Fenerbahçe have reached a full agreement, the player’s final approval is still missing, as he has been carefully evaluating his future over the past few hours.
The key obstacle to the transfer is Sevilla, who have strongly intervened in the pursuit of the Moroccan striker. En-Nesyri enjoyed the peak of his career at Sevilla, winning two Europa League titles and maintaining exceptional consistency. Sevilla are currently pressuring the player to wait and consider a return to Spain, an offensive that carries significant emotional and sporting weight.
The Standoff Between Juventus, Fenerbahçe and the Player
Meanwhile, Juventus and Fenerbahçe have reached a complete consensus: the inter-club agreement is finalized. The Turkish club has made its position clear to the player, leaving him with a binary choice: either accept the move to the Bianconeri, or stay at Fenerbahçe. For this reason, En-Nesyri remains in Turkey discussing the situation with his agents and has yet to give a final answer.
Against this backdrop, Juventus sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli will return to Turin without the player, with the deal stalled despite the inter-club agreement. Fenerbahçe has reiterated that it only wishes to sell En-Nesyri to Juventus, but Sevilla’s pursuit has made the player hesitate, and the two sides will hold further remote discussions in the coming hours. Juventus remains confident in the stability of the inter-club agreement but recognizes that the final step depends entirely on the player’s choice.
Juventus’ Stance
Juventus is conducting deeper internal considerations. While the agreement with Fenerbahçe remains valid, the club now seeks additional guarantees in other areas. In fact, factors shaking the player’s resolve also involve specific details of the transfer package, prompting both sides to take time for a more careful assessment. Juventus is also questioning the player’s genuine willingness to join and whether his technical profile fully aligns with the needs of the current sporting project.
As a result, both sides have decided to postpone all final decisions until after tomorrow’s match, aiming to clarify all outstanding issues. Sevilla continues to apply pressure behind the scenes, and the Bianconeri are waiting for clear signals before proceeding.
