Juventus Sets €15m Asking Price for Timothy Weah Amid Marseille Interest

Football News

According to reports from L`Équipe, Juventus has reportedly set their asking price at €15 million for the departure of United States international Timothy Weah. With Marseille initiating preliminary discussions regarding the player, the Turin-based club is understood to be seeking this fee.

The player himself is reportedly keen on leaving Juventus, potentially paving the way for a return to France`s Ligue 1. Weah previously won the league title there with Lille in 2021 under the management of Christophe Galtier. He has reportedly found it challenging to secure a consistent run of form during his two seasons with Juventus, particularly under the guidance of former Marseille boss Igor Tudor.

Throughout his senior career, Weah has accumulated 78 appearances, scoring 7 goals and providing 7 assists. His professional journey has included spells at notable clubs such as PSG, Celtic, and Lille.

Meanwhile, Marseille is actively seeking reinforcements for their attacking line-up following the transfer of Luis Henrique to Inter Milan. Timothy Weah is being considered as a versatile option who could potentially strengthen the squad at both full-back – a position where Amir Murillo is currently the only specialist – and further forward in attacking roles where additional depth is needed.
