Juventus are not prepared to sell Merih Demiral this summer a source close to the player revealed to Turkish-Football.
The Serie A outfit flirted with the idea of selling Demiral to make a quick profit following the arrival of Matthijs de Ligt from Ajax.
Juve signed Demiral on an €18m move from Sassuolo in July but were open to selling him for offers matching their €40m valuation – with a buyback option for €60m.
Demiral impressed Juventus over the pre-season period and he has been informed that he will have a place in the team next season.
We reported last week that Manchester United made an enquiry for the 21-year-old defender following the transfer of De Ligt.
