Goalkeeper Mattia Perin set to leave Juventus for Palermo after medical appointment
Mattia Perin will depart Juventus this week, with his medical already arranged at Serie B club Palermo.
After coming on in the second half of Juventus' season-opening game versus Frosinone, Mattia Perin is poised to leave the Turin side. Palermo, competing in Serie B and targeting a return to Serie A, has finalized a deal for the keeper and booked his medical for the current week. The transfer follows Juventus' decision to offload both Perin and Michele Di Gregorio, as manager Luciano Spalletti seeks stronger options between the posts.
Perin, who has been with Juventus since 2018 but started only 43 league matches, previously enjoyed regular play on loan at Genoa. The move offers him a chance to become a first-choice goalkeeper and aid Palermo's promotion push, while Juventus continues to reshape its squad under Spalletti.
Why it matters
The transfer gives Perin a fresh start and signals Juventus' intent to revamp its goalkeeping roster.
