Juventus goalkeeper Mattia Perin is reportedly close to joining Serie B club Palermo. Football Italia and Yahoo Sports both frame the move as a near-term transfer, suggesting Juventus are looking to reshape their squad and free up resources.

Both outlets connect the goalkeeper transfer to Juventus’ broader plans for the market. Yahoo Sports adds that Palermo’s deal could provide funds to support Juventus’ interest in signing Franck Kessie, who is described as a free agent. The reports indicate that selling or moving Perin would create additional budget flexibility as Juventus weigh incoming moves.

While the sources agree on the core premise—Perin’s potential move to Palermo and the idea that it could support Juventus’ pursuit of Kessie—details such as fee, contract length, and timing are not fully specified in the provided excerpts. The reports therefore emphasize the linkage between the goalkeeper transfer and Juventus’ funding needs rather than offering confirmed final terms.
