Reports Link Man United, Spurs and Aston Villa to Juventus Defender Pierre Kalulu

Italian reports suggest Juventus are reluctant to approve a January sale.

Overview

  • Calciomercato, relayed by Yahoo Sports and CaughtOffside, reports interest from Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa in the 25-year-old French centre-back.
  • The quoted valuation is roughly £26m or €30m, with Juventus having previously paid about €20m to sign Kalulu from AC Milan.
