Lloyd Kelly’s tenure at Juventus appears increasingly uncertain, with English Premier League club Sunderland reportedly expressing interest in acquiring the 26-year-old defender.

Kelly, who joined Juventus from Newcastle United in June 2025, has yet to make a competitive appearance for the Serie A giants, and his future in Turin is now under scrutiny.

Juventus, aiming to strengthen their squad for the upcoming season, are reportedly seeking to raise funds through player sales.

Kelly, having arrived for a transfer fee of €17.5 million, is among the players the club is considering offloading to finance new signings.

The club’s valuation of Kelly is believed to be between €18 and €20 million, reflecting his potential market value.

Sunderland, having secured promotion to the Premier League, are looking to bolster their defensive options and have reportedly initiated contact with Juventus regarding Kelly.

The club is currently assessing whether to submit a formal bid, with discussions ongoing. Should Sunderland proceed with an offer that meets Juventus’ valuation, the transfer could materialize swiftly.

Despite the speculation, Kelly has not requested a transfer and is reportedly eager to prove himself at Juventus.

However, with the club’s financial considerations taking precedence, Juventus may prioritize a sale if an appropriate offer is received.

The coming weeks will be pivotal in determining whether Kelly remains part of Juventus’ plans or returns to England to continue his career.
