Milik of Juventus in limbo: offers from the United Arab Emirates

According to Tuttosport, the Polish striker Arek Milik is close to leaving Juventus: the black‑and‑white club is reportedly considering an immediate transfer to the United Arab Emirates, with the UAE Pro League transfer window closing on September 28 and the move possibly being completed in the coming weeks.

The interest comes from two Emirati clubs that are looking for the cherry on top to strengthen their attack, targeting the 1994‑born centre‑forward, former Napoli player, with their eyes closed. As the Turin newspaper reports, Juventus officials have already contacted an intermediary who works for Asian interests and who has spoken with the Polish player to assess the parameters of a lightning‑fast deal.

Economic conditions and role in the squad

Juventus has opened up to the sale of Milik, now considered surplus at the club due to serious injuries and the new arrivals Kolo Muani, Woltemade and Ekhator. According to sources, Spalletti would let him leave even on a free transfer or for a minimal compensation, not exceeding one million euros.

The 32‑year‑old is out of the Serie A squad list and costs €1.8 million net per year until June 30, when his contract expires. There is no early‑termination clause, so the black‑and‑white side is pushing for a sale already in this extended window, even though the deal remains complex.

UAE Pro League market deadline

There is time until the upcoming September 28, the date when the transfer market in the UAE Pro League closes, to finalise the agreement. The time limit makes the definition of terms urgent, both for the Emirati club and for Juventus, which wants to free up a squad place and reduce its financial burden.

In summary, the negotiation is underway, but the market closure and the lack of a termination clause make Milik’s transfer a deal that needs to be concluded quickly, with the hope of a mutually beneficial solution.
