Pedulla: Danso’s Failed Medical Derailed Juventus Move

Start

In a stunning turn of events, Alfredo Pedullà has disclosed the reason behind Kevin Danso’s collapsed transfer to Juventus. The Austrian defender, who has now officially joined Tottenham Hotspur, was on the verge of signing with the Bianconeri until just a few days ago.

According to Pedullà, the deal fell through for the same reason that prevented Danso from joining Roma last summer: the player failed to pass his medical examinations. These tests were reportedly conducted in utmost secrecy at an undisclosed location abroad.

Juventus, who had been negotiating a loan deal with an option to buy with Lens, promptly withdrew from negotiations upon learning of the medical results. This unexpected development led the Turin club to shift their focus to Newcastle United’s Lloyd Kelly as an alternative defensive reinforcement.

Taking advantage of the situation, Tottenham Hotspur swiftly entered the picture. After failing to convince AC Milan’s Fikayo Tomori to join their ranks (a target they shared with Juventus), Spurs secured Danso’s services with a reported total package worth €30 million.
