Juventus are planning to offer Nico González a new contract extension after the Argentina international returns from a loan spell at Atletico Madrid. Multiple outlets report the club is now accelerating negotiations rather than seeking to sell the player.
The shift comes after earlier speculation that Juventus were looking for a buyer for González following his time away. SoccerNews says an agreement has been reached and that the deal is expected to be signed in the coming days, citing Camillo Demichelis. Football Italia similarly reports Juventus are working to extend the contract soon, while Yahoo Sports notes the change in Juventus’ stance compared with the summer transfer window. Across the reports, coaching influence is also referenced, with one source adding that Luciano Spalletti encouraged González to stay in Turin.
