“Juventus” of Turin will start negotiations with “Krasnodar” to acquire the transfer of Eduard Spertsyan, the midfielder of the Armenian national team. As “RB Sport” reports, the Italian club with the most titles intends to complete the deal as soon as the summer transfer window opens. According to the same source, the Italian club contacted Spertsyan’s representatives. Earlier, the Italian media wrote that Spertsyan could sign a contract with “Juventus” in January of this year. “Juventus” continues to consider the option of acquiring Spertsyan’s transfer, Tuttomercatoweb wrote in December. According to the source, during the winter transfer window, the Turinese were ready to pay 15 million euros for the transfer of the Armenian football player. Now it is already being said that the midfielder of the Armenian national team is focused on his performances in “Krasnodar” and wants to win the title of Russian champion with his team.
However, it should be noted that at the end of 2023, Spertsyan hinted that he might leave “Krasnodar” during the winter transfer window. “Can you promise the fans that you will not leave “Krasnodar” in the winter?” asked Spertsyan by the “Sport Express” journalist after the match against BMKA Moscow. The latter answered: “Let’s see how it will turn out.” However, it should be noted that the 23-year-old football player of the Armenian national team is not the only transfer target of “Juventus”. The Turin club is also interested in the services of PSG midfielder Fabian Ruiz, who previously played in “Napoli”, where the current sports director of “Juventus” Cristiano Giuntoli worked. The Italian media also write that “Juventus” will sign a contract with Spertsyan if they fail to acquire the transfer of 29-year-old Sassuolo midfielder Dominico Berardi. Spertsyan’s latest statement about the possibility of moving to Europe proves that the transfer of the Armenian football player is realistic. Another question is when it will take place. By the way, the representatives of “Juventus” were present at the Croatia-Armenia match of the last round of the EURO-2024 qualifying round in Zagreb to watch Spertsyan’s game. After the transfer market update in October, Spertsyan’s transfer value increased by another 3 million euros and is 18 million euros.
At the moment, Spertsyan is the most expensive Armenian football player. During the summer transfer window, Spertsyan moved to Amsterdam “Ajax”, but the deal failed. The athletic director of “Ajax” wanted to acquire Eduard Spertsyan, but the representatives of the club’s board expressed their opposition to that transfer. According to the members of the board, “Krasnodar” demanded too much money for the transaction. In particular, “Krasnodar” demanded 15 million euros for Spertsyan’s transfer, while the Amsterdam team was ready to pay 12 million. It turns out that in the summer, the Russian club demanded quite reasonable financial compensation for the Armenian football player. At the end of June, information was spread that Spertsyan might continue his career in Manchester City, the champion of England and the current winner of the Champions League.
Other teams were also interested in Spertsyan’s services. According to RB Sport, 23-year-old Spertsyan had two options to continue his career in the German Bundesliga. According to the source, “Freiburg” and “Borussia” Mönchengladbach were fighting for Spertsyan’s transfer. It was mentioned that the scouts of the clubs watched Spertsyan’s game during the matches of the Armenian national team.
