Pierre Kalulu: Liverpool, Man Utd and Man City want Juve star

Liverpool

Juventus are working to secure the future of Pierre Kalulu amid growing interest from several clubs. Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City and Newcastle United are reportedly monitoring the French defender, while Paris Saint-Germain are also interested in signing him, as per latest transfer news.

Premier League clubs monitor Pierre Kalulu

Kalulu has become an important member of Juventus’ defence since joining the Italian club. His ability to operate as a centre-back, right-back or wing-back makes him a useful option for teams that need players who can perform different roles.

As reported by Sports Mole, several Premier League clubs have registered an interest in the 26-year-old. His current contract runs until June 2029, but Juventus want to agree fresh terms before the competition for his signature grows further.

Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City and Newcastle are all tracking Kalulu. However, none have confirmed a formal bid. His displays last season explain the interest. He started all 49 games he played, scoring twice and setting up six goals. He can help in attack, support the right wing and also play at centre-back.

This makes him a useful option for many teams. His ability to play in different roles gives managers more choices, especially when injuries and a busy fixture list leave them short of players.

PSG see Kalulu as defensive solution

Paris Saint-Germain are another club reportedly interested in the Juve defender. Their recruitment plans could make Kalulu an appealing option, particularly because he can cover more than one position. Achraf Hakimi remains PSG’s main right-back, but the French champions are reportedly looking for a dependable alternative. Kalulu could fill in at centre-back and provide an alternative in that role.

PSG are also looking at their centre-back options after concerns about Ilya Zabarnyi’s performances. The club may now consider changes to its defence. Marc Pubill is another target for the right-back role. However, Kalulu can play at centre-back too, making him a useful option if PSG want a player who can fill several roles. The French club continue to monitor his situation.

He also has experience in international football. Kalulu earned two appearances for France during the latest international break under Zinedine Zidane, adding to his profile ahead of the next transfer windows.

Juventus want to secure Kalulu’s future

Juventus have little reason to delay talks over Kalulu’s contract if they see him as a key player. His current deal runs for more than two years, but a new contract could help the club keep other teams away.

Kalulu can play in several roles in defence, making him a useful player during a busy season. Losing him would leave Juventus looking for someone with similar skills. The club will want to agree on a new deal before other teams have a better chance to sign him. A contract renewal would also give Juventus more control over his future and put them in a stronger position if another club makes an offer.

Interest from England and France could give Pierre Kalulu several options, but no transfer has been confirmed. His performances over the next few months could shape his future. For now, Juve want to keep the defender. Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City, Newcastle and PSG are all linked with him. The next step may depend on whether Juventus can agree a new deal before more clubs join the race.
