Brighton and Everton to Battle Juventus in Chase for PSG's Veteran Defender
Report Says Milan Skriniar's Future Appears to Be Elsewhere
In the final days of the January transfer window, Brighton and Everton have reportedly joined the race to sign Paris Saint-Germain defender Milan Skriniar.
Interest Intensifies Ahead of Deadline
According to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, the two Premier League clubs have expressed interest in the Slovakian international.
Skriniar's contract with PSG expires in the summer, and he has been linked with a move away from the French capital for some time.
Juventus Remain Frontrunners
Despite Brighton and Everton's interest, Italian giants Juventus are reportedly still the favorites to land Skriniar.
Juventus have been long-time admirers of the defender, and they are believed to have offered him a lucrative contract to join them.
Skriniar Seeks New Challenge
Skriniar is said to be keen on a new challenge, and he is reportedly open to a move to the Premier League.
The 27-year-old has been a key player for PSG since joining from Inter Milan in 2017, but he is believed to be seeking a new adventure.
Brighton and Everton Eager to Bolster Defenses
Brighton and Everton are both in need of defensive reinforcements, and Skriniar would be a major upgrade for either club.
Brighton have struggled defensively this season, and the addition of Skriniar would provide them with much-needed experience and quality.
Everton have also been poor defensively, and Skriniar would be a significant improvement on the likes of Conor Coady and Yerry Mina.
Transfer Battle Intensifies
With the January transfer window deadline approaching, the race to sign Skriniar is intensifying.
Juventus remain the favorites, but Brighton and Everton are determined to hijack the deal.
It remains to be seen where Skriniar will end up, but one thing is for sure: the battle for his signature is far from over.
