Juventus push for Lorenzo Palmisani as Vicario's understudy
Juventus could sign the Frosinone keeper in January and loan him back, as they did with Gatti, after three goalkeepers leave in June.
Juventus are looking for a goalkeeper to back up Guglielmo Vicario, and their first option is Lorenzo Palmisani, the Frosinone keeper who has just signed a new contract. Three Juventus goalkeepers will leave in June: Grabara returns to Wolfsburg after his cruciate ligament rupture, Neto is only signed until the end of the season, and Carlo Pinsoglio is also set to go. According to Tuttosport, the buy-back option on Vicario is now little more than a formality.
His agent, Federico Pastorello, confirmed that Juventus approached last summer, when clubs abroad and from the Premier League were also interested. The plan now is to make a move in January and leave him on loan at Frosinone until the end of the season, as happened before with Gatti.
If that deal falls through, the shortlist includes Pedro Morisco from Coritiba and Stanislav Agkatsev from Krasnodar.
