Girona, Juventus want Faye

Mundo Deportivo reported that Girona and Juventus are vying for the services of the 19-year-old Faye.

The Senegalese international has gained popularity as one of the best young defenders in the world today.

Faye has also captured the attention of several high-profile clubs, including Chelsea and Bayern Munich.

Chelsea tried to sign Faye in last summer’s transfer window, but Barcelona swooped in to secure his talent.

Faye inked a deal with Blaugrana worth €1.5 million.

Girona could use Faye as a defensive option since loanee Eric Garcia will return to Barcelona in the summer transfer window.

Meanwhile, Juventus needs a centre-back like Faye, as their defensive unit has been inconsistent this season.

Faye’s future with Barca

Barcelona plans to promote Faye in the first team before the end of the season.

The Catalan giants hopes to retain Faye within the summer window.

So far, the young centre-back has been impressive with Barcelona Atletic, scoring five goals in his last seven matches despite being a defender.
