Euro giants plotting January raid on Sunderland for first-team mainstay

Euro giants plotting January raid on Sunderland for first-team mainstay

Juventus are reportedly interested in signing the Sunderland midfielder Granit Xhaka.

The experienced Swiss International returned to the Premier League at the start of the season, and he has done quite well for Sunderland. According to a report via Football Italia, Juventus are prepared to bring him to the club.

It will be interesting to see if Sunderland are prepared to sell the player in January. The 33-year-old is an important player for them, and they will not want to lose him.

He is also one of the leaders of the dressing room. Sunderland have started the season well, and they will look to finish in a respectable position this season. Losing one of their best midfielders would be a mistake.

It will be interesting to see if Juventus come forward with a lucrative proposal to get the deal done. According to the report, the player is likely to cost in excess of €15 million in January.

Sunderland will not want to lose the player easily. It might take an offer too good to turn down. Meanwhile, convincing the letter to join the club might not be too difficult for the Italian outfit. They are one of the biggest clubs in Italy, and they could provide him with the platform to compete at the highest level and fight for trophies. Sunderland are not quite at that level. However, he is only a few months into his contract with the English club. It seems unlikely that he will force an exit in January.

It is fair to assume that any move might have to wait until the summer transfer window.

Sunderland will not want to jeopardise their impressive start to the season by making a port transfer decision in January.
