Lack of playing time will push Fagioli out of Juventus in the winter transfer window.
After five months in charge of the Old Lady, coach Thiago Motta is not entirely convinced about the Italian midfielder, who has been struggling for playing time in recent weeks.

Fagioli has provided one assist in 15 appearances this term but collected just 683 minutes of football on the pitch.
According to Gazzetta, Fagioli is unhappy with his status in Turin, while Motta hasn’t seen enough improvements from the 23-year-old.
Fagioli hasn’t started a competitive match since October 22, a 1-0 loss against Stuttgart in the Champions League.
According to the report, Motta isn’t even happy with the midfielder’s performances and attitude when he’s introduced as a substitute from the bench.
Juventus supported Fagioli and helped him during his betting ban, even extending his contract to 2028. At the same time, the Bianconeri are aware that the best option for them and the player is to split next month.
Gazzetta claims that PSG, Marseille, and Napoli are interested in the Italian midfielder even if the Partenopei haven’t yet contacted the Bianconeri.
