Juventus still want Schick, but…
By Football Italia staff
Juventus are reportedly still interested in Patrik Schick, but relations with Sampdoria are not good.
The striker was all-set to join the Bianconeri earlier this summer, with a €30m transfer agreed between the clubs.
However, the Czech international failed his medical due to a heart issue, and Juve pulled the plug on the deal.
After a month off to rest, Schick has now been declared fit to return to action, and Sky reports that the champions are still interested, and made contact with his entourage.
Despite that, relations are not good with Samp following this summer’s aborted move, so finding an agreement could prove difficult.
Nonetheless it’s thought Schick’s first preference is the Old Lady, ahead of Inter, Roma, Napoli and Paris Saint-Germain.
